Biology for GCSE and A-level students. Group lessons available at lower rates.

Biology can be a very challenging subject for some students. Long texts, complicated organ systems and long scientific names ? I get the frustration. I’ve been simplifying biology for GCSE and A-level students for 3 years and no student has left my session feeling confused. My classes are topic based, interactive and exam centered. Part of the class is dedicated to explaining and simplifying the topic in discussion, and another part is always allocated to reviewing past papers together until the student is 100% confident about the topic. I assign short homework tasks ( few selected past paper questions) to encourage them to practice the topic on their own.

About Me

Hey ! I’m Hesham, a science enthusiast and tutor with 5 years of experience tutoring Biology at GCSE and A-level. I hold a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree with distinction with 3 years of clinical experience. When i’m not at the clinic treating people, I like to share my knowledge, help people reach their fullest potential academically and find science as simple to understand as I do. I am an expert in AQA and EDEXCEL exam boards but can teach all exam boards as the content is almost identical.

P.S: I offer 1 to 1 lessons at the rate mentioned and group lessons for AQA GCSE BIOLOGY at much lower rates. Contact me to find out more about my group lessons and book your spot now !

Come and learn Biology and Chemistry with an expert. Book now and have your best experience.
In the IGCSE and CIE (AS/A Level) Biology and Chemistry curricula, Organic Chemistry is a major topic, particularly within Chemistry. Here's a breakdown of what is covered at each level: --- IGCSE Chemistry (Cambridge - 0620/0971) In IGCSE, Organic Chemistry focuses on the fundamentals of carbon compounds and their reactions. Key areas include: 1. Introduction to Organic Chemistry - Definition: Organic chemistry is the study of carbon-based compounds. - Hydrocarbons: Compounds made up of carbon and hydrogen only. 2. Types of Hydrocarbons - Alkanes: - General formula: CnH2n+2 - Properties: Saturated hydrocarbons (single bonds). - Combustion and substitution reactions. - Alkenes: - General formula: CnH2n - Properties: Unsaturated hydrocarbons (double bonds). - Addition reactions (e.g., with bromine water as a test for alkenes). 3. Functional Groups and Homologous Series - Alcohols: General formula CnH2n+1OH (e.g., ethanol). - Properties and combustion. - Carboxylic Acids: General formula CnH2n+1COOH(e.g., ethanoic acid). - Weak acids, their reactions, and uses. 4. Polymers - Addition Polymerization: Formation of polymers from alkenes (e.g., poly(ethene), poly(propene)). - Natural and Synthetic Polymers: Proteins, nylon, and plastics. - Environmental Issues: Problems with non-biodegradable plastics. --- CIE AS and A Level Chemistry (9701) At the AS/A Level, Organic Chemistry is studied in greater depth, with emphasis on structure, reactions, and mechanisms. Key topics include: 1. Structure and Bonding in Organic Compounds - Structural, displayed, and skeletal formulas. - somerism: - Structural isomers. - Stereoisomerism: cis-trans(E/Z) isomerism. 2. Functional Groups and Reactions - Alkanes: Combustion and free radical substitution reactions. - Alkenes: Addition reactions (e.g., hydrogenation, halogenation, hydration). - Alcohols: Preparation (hydration of ethene) and oxidation (to aldehydes, ketones, or carboxylic acids). - Halogenoalkanes: Nucleophilic substitution reactions. - Carboxylic Acids: Reactions (e.g., neutralization, esterification). - Esters: Formation and hydrolysis. 3. Mechanisms of Reactions - Free radical substitution (e.g., in alkanes). - Electrophilic addition (e.g., in alkenes). - Nucleophilic substitution (e.g., in halogenoalkanes). 4. Polymers and Biochemistry - Addition and condensation polymers. - Structure of proteins and DNA. 5. Organic Synthesis - Pathways for converting one functional group to another. - Use of reagents, conditions, and mechanisms in synthesis. Summary - IGCSE Organic Chemistry focuses on basic hydrocarbons (alkanes, alkenes), functional groups (alcohols, carboxylic acids), and polymers. - AS/A Level Organic Chemistry goes deeper into mechanisms, isomerism, synthesis pathways, and advanced functional groups.
