Biology for high school, preparation to university and university beginners students

I am passionate for the natural sciences and I teach my students to understand how things works, why such a process works in a certain way instead of working in the other way around instead of keeping memorizing concepts. I teach not only to help the student succeed, but to make him understand the importance and the logic of science, arousing their curiosity and knowledge.

Extra information

Holding two masters (biology and human ecology), I used to study the populations of blue sharks in the South West Equatorial Atlantic Ocean. I have experience teaching in four languages, both at university and in high schools.

Location

At student's location: Around Brussels, Belgium

About Me

As Biologist, I worked for many years as a researcher in the biology of shark populations in the Southwest Equatorial Atlantic Ocean. As Human Ecologist I've given lessons of Environmental Conservation in Ecuador and Bolivia. Moreover, I have experience as a university professor on vertebrates' zoology and teaching biology in high schools. Besides, I speak English, French, Portuguese and Spanish.

I am passionate for the natural sciences and try to teach my students to understand the scientific method and to develop a critical thinking, instead of memorizing concepts.

I see myself as a coach to help students identify what they like about STEM fields and biology and make the journey fun!

Talha
Tutoring for both boards of Cambridge and edexcel. IGCSE / GCSE/IB/AS BIOLOGY
Biology is particularly a challenging subject because it requires you to first understand the enormous number of concepts and then memories it simultaneously. I'll teach biology through the slides I have prepared (ig/GCSE only) which are made from multiple resource, such as marking scheme, the book and examiner reports, this is beneficial as while I teach the concept it will come to the student the exact way the examiner wants the student to answer, and ofcource while learning the slides he will be Able to directly do the past papers as the notes are mastercopy of the source itself. Moreover, I'll make sure that each topic is fully understood by the student so there will be no room for error.

Biology (Cell, Evolutionary, Genetics) from basic to advanced
Biology is one of the most important subjects in the science field. It's a core course taught everywhere, but the key to understanding any type of science, including Biology, is applying theoretical knowledge to real-life phenomena. That's what I valued the most as a pupil and student myself, putting my knowledge to practice, and that's exactly what I want to teach my students. We will go through all the unclarities and gaps of knowledge you may have from school or university and reinforce our lessons by finding ways to practice Biology in real life. That's what Biology is about since it is the science of life after all, isn't it? You're more than welcome to join my class, and I'll make sure you ace those Biology exams.

Biology Second Year of High School. Shine in Selectividad.
I have been a public school teacher for four years and have previously trained students to take the university entrance exams in this subject. Reinforcement classes will be given based on the official biology curriculum for the second year of high school in public education in Spain, with special emphasis on the relationship of concepts, deduction and a deep understanding of the subject in order to be able to face the entrance exam in optimal conditions and obtain a high average grade.

Biology - GCSE, A level tutoring and primary school teaching
**Class Description:** This tutoring service offers comprehensive support for GCSE and A-Level Biology students across all UK examination boards. Each session is specifically tailored to the individual learning needs of the student, focusing on both the academic requirements of their syllabus and their personal progress. As a fourth-year medical student, I bring a deeper understanding of biology through advanced studies and real-world applications, allowing me to provide insight into the subject beyond the curriculum. My teaching approach goes beyond simply preparing for exams; while exam-style questions will be regularly incorporated to ensure familiarity with the format and structure of assessments, the main focus will be on fostering a thorough and long-lasting understanding of biological concepts. Homework will be assigned after every lesson to reinforce the topics covered and ensure consistent progress. Additionally, exam-style questions will be systematically reviewed and analysed, equipping students with the confidence and exam techniques needed to excel in their qualifications. With this combination of tailored tutoring, practical insight, and academic support, students will be empowered to master their Biology studies and achieve their goals. I hold advanced DBS certification, have worked with children before and also work in psychology and paediatrics within the NHS.

plasma membrane: structure, function, properties
Structure of the plasma membrane The plasma membrane is mainly composed of: Phospholipids: These amphipathic molecules (having both a hydrophilic and a hydrophobic part) are organized into a double lipid layer. This structure gives the membrane its semi-permeable barrier property. Proteins: They are integrated into the lipid bilayer and perform various functions: transport of molecules, reception of signals, cellular recognition, etc. Carbohydrates: Linked to lipids (glycolipids) or proteins (glycoproteins), they play an important role in cell recognition and cellular interactions. Function of the plasma membrane Selective barrier: The plasma membrane allows the selective passage of certain molecules while preventing others. Transport: Membrane proteins provide passive (simple or facilitated diffusion) or active (pumps) transport of molecules across the membrane. Receiving signals: Membrane receptors allow the cell to detect and respond to signals from its environment. Cell recognition: Molecules present on the surface of the membrane allow cells to recognize and interact with each other. Maintenance of homeostasis: The plasma membrane helps maintain a stable intracellular environment by regulating exchanges between the cell and its environment. Properties of the plasma membrane Fluidity: The plasma membrane is not a rigid structure but rather fluid, which allows it to deform and change shape. Asymmetry: The two faces of the plasma membrane have different compositions, which gives the membrane polarity. Plasma membrane models Fluid mosaic model: This model, the most accepted, describes the membrane as a constantly changing mosaic of lipids and proteins.

Studying the biology of all living things and other components of biology
Biology can be tricky as it contains lots of different components. This can be introduced slowly as I will provide support over lessons teaching you lots of information but a slow and steady pace giving you questions and answers along the way. Homework will also be provided this is to ensure that the lesson has stuck into your head and you have grasped it. If not there is no worries as things can take a while to learn but by the end you will feel a lot less stress about what you may be learning in biology. You may be finding one specific topic in biology hard and we can always go over that in the lesson or we can find stuff to look over in the lessons to keep your brains up to date for upcoming important exams.
