    Discover The Superpowers of Your Immune System Cells

    In this science class (immunology), students will have an overview of their immune system’ superheroes (cells), where they are and the amazing actions they will take to protect us from pathogens.

    Let's promote discussions and critical thinking activities (Q&A) so students will learn how the immune system cells team up to destroy a pathogen. We will go beyond that knowledge and learn what each of us can do to make sure our superheroes get the support they need (hello science of well-being!) The students will then review what they learned by role-playing: assuming the role of immune system cells and having the opportunity to teach each other what they can do to protect their team.

    About Me

    Hi! I am Paula. I am a scientist, especially curious about human cells and their troubled interaction with viruses.

    As a teacher, I share my passion for immunology by showing students we all have superpowers! Our journey starts by looking into our immune system, extending that knowledge to learn scientific methods to discover the world around us. I am also very interested in learning "how to learn" and effective strategies to learn better.

    I am a bachelor in Biomedicine with a master's in Science and Biotechnology. I am a certified ESL teacher and have been working at physical and online schools with 3 to 18-year-old students for +3 years.

    It is well proven that we learn when we are relaxed and interacting with the material and others. This is why I bring interactive games so students will develop their critical thinking, also showing them they already have all the skills to become scientists! I can quickly adapt my class to their needs depending on how they interact. I really enjoy it when students are given the opportunity to teach each other, it serves as a review done by and for themselves!

    When not in the classroom, I love spending time with my family (my husband and our ginger cat) and admiring the abundance of the ocean. The world is my backyard!
    I will see you soon!

    Education

    -Master in Science (with thesis, 2013) focused on human immunology and virology.
    -Bachelor in Biomedicine (with thesis, 2010)
    -English to BR-Portuguese Translator (2019)

    Experience / Qualifications

    I am a bachelor in Biomedicine with a master's in Science and Biotechnology, being a researcher for over 11 years. I am a certified ESL teacher (Advanced TESOL) and have been working at physical and online schools with 3 to 64-year-old students for +3 years.
    Learn, share and get help on human biology topics. Sessions will be designed to fit the needs of the student! We will be using the Zoom app. This class: This course is intended for private tutoring on specific human biology topics (ages 12 to 17). Each meeting, we will discuss the topic and areas that need greater attention. Students will engage in discussions so they can strengthen their critical thinking skills, and they will also be encouraged to review the topic using their own words to build an actual understanding of target concepts (we can do this together!). I am a science researcher, especially curious about our body's defense system and its troubled interaction with viruses. I am a bachelor in Biomedicine with a master's in Science and Biotechnology. I am also a certified ESL teacher and have been working at physical and online schools for +3 years. My latest hobby is learning "how to learn" and effective strategies to learn better. Topics may include, but are not limited to: • Molecular Biology • Cells • Genetics • Nucleic Acids • Human Physiology • Immune System If you are interested in private tutoring, please: 1. Request a time that works for you; 2. Provide the topics or syllabus of interest in advance to maximize my planning and ability to assist; 3. Purpose of the class: will this be an introduction of the material, review, an extension of topics or help with homework?

    LEARN SCIENCE, BRANCHES OF SCIENCE, AND MIDDLE MATH
    A system of knowledge about the physical, chemical, and biological universe and the things that occur in it is called science. It is an objective observation that explains the basic rules of nature. Another approach to defining science is as the information gained through practice. Learning Science is really Fun, join to learn how to connect it real world everywhere sicence is present.

    Private lessons in maths - physics - bio - methodology
    Having obtained my Engineering degree in June 2018 and currently working as a Software Engineer in an IT company, I want to share my knowledge acquired during my studies with people of all ages in the Brussels region. My goal is to help my students approach the subject from a different angle so that they feel more comfortable and confident. I adapt my lessons to everyone by combining theory, exercises and practical examples. This period is ideal for getting back up to speed and possibly adopting a new working methodology in order to best approach the end of year session. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!

    I am laureate in Scienze Biologiche e Biotecnologie, Indirizzo Ambiente e Agro-Industria. For 5 years I continue to be students of different età, in diverse corsi di scienze. Chemistry, mathematics, biology and others are not secret per me. With this enthusiasm I will wait for others to stop in a very simple way. Here we learn in the preparation of those written and oral, and in the study of the various disciplines.

    Rukhsar
    Tutoring for any ages- Qualified teacher with PGCE and QTS.
    I was first placed in a reception class; there I was with a particularly challenging year group as they were the first post-covid class to resume normal in-person education. The group had a high level of SEND needs, including ADHD, autism and dyslexia, but specifically SEMH and anxiety caused by the pandemic; I was challenged with supporting the children in transitioning into full-time school. During my time with this class, I was able to observe and hold intervention for students with SEND, with the awareness that early identification and support is imperative. I regularly taught across the EYFS curriculum, and it was a good opportunity for me to develop my teaching, particularly in phonics and math’s. It also allowed me to understand adaptive teaching and include it in my lesson planning, ensuring that learning was accessible for all. Throughout placement, I showed a clear understanding of the EYFS frameworks and national curriculum. I consistently referred to the teaching standards and maintained a high level of professionalism. Safeguarding was at the forefront of everything I did as nothing is more important than the welfare of students, and I would continue in going above and beyond with this. Working with a Year 2 class who were preparing for their end of KS1 SATs tests. Going from reception to year 2 allowed me to gain experience across the ages and curriculum, with year 2 studying all foundation subjects rather than the condensed reception curriculum. During this placement, my teaching percentages rapidly increased, and I worked my way up to 80% of the timetable. I worked with the class to help them prepare and recap for their SATs and held interventions where necessary. At the end of teaching days, I also took the time out to reflect on the lessons I taught, with an aim to improve and better myself. With this class, I specifically worked on assessment, both formative and summative, across subjects; I regularly joined meetings about data, assessments and moderation. Currently, working as a supply teacher has allowed me to gain experience in working with a range of different age groups and schools. As part of this position, I carry out the duties of a class teacher, including lesson planning, consulting with parents and maintaining records of student’s progress. When working at new schools, I always ensure to build a rapport with both staff and students to enable me to teach to the best of my ability. I continue to promote high levels of class engagement and good behavior. I also have experience teaching EAL students.
