About Berivan
*Space scientist and a highly experienced tutor*
I am back to this site after some time away working on my PhD. Please ignore the '8 hour response time', I will respond to messages swiftly.
Hello,
I have an undergraduate degree in Chemistry and a Masters degree in Earth Science and over 6 years of experience as a science educator. Right now I am doing a PhD in Astrobiology at Leicester University. My research area is the search for life on Mars - if you have ever seen the Mars rovers that is what my project is about. It's all very exciting and I would be happy to discuss this in more detail.
Here is some online media about me that will help you get to know me better.
1. I was recently awarded the prestigious Amelia Earhart prize for my research

2. This is a video interview I did about my work while at the University of Toronto

3. This is another video where I explain my work
(concealed information)
I have worked at NASA, analysing data from the Curiosity rover on Mars, the European Space Agency, Sao Paulo Advanced School of Astrobiology and the Bermuda Institute of Oceanography. My varied and exciting experiences mean I have a lot to offer my students in terms of their general interest in science.
Please get in touch if you have any questions. I am looking forward to supporting you academically and making science are more relatable and enjoyable subject.
Looking forward to working with you.

Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the students of Berivan.
Perfect! Excellent tutor. Enthusiastic and professional
Very pleased with Berivan's approach to tutoring our boy in science. She’s really helped to inject some fundamental changes in his approach to learning, allowing him to think for himself. Her enthusiasm and personable manner are good too and he has an increased enthusiasm for the subject matter. We like that she has been well organised (and helped him to be too) and has offered us great advice on the education system and schools for the future.

I have known Berivan for the past five years and in that time she has demonstrated dedication and thoroughness in her work educating youth. She is a detail-oriented and patient tutor who accommodates youth based on need and interest.
Berivan has been tutoring our daughter (age 8) for the past year in Maths and our son (age 9) in Science for half that time. They both highly enjoyed their lessons with her and looked forward to her weekly visits.
Berivan is genuinely passionate about teaching. Our daughter can get distracted easily and Berivan always made sure the lessons were structured playfully to hold her attention. Her innovative approach really helped our daughter to rebuild her confidence and to spark an interest in Math.
Berivan genuinely cares about her students, is very knowledgeable about her subjects and extremely well organised and efficient. I would be more than happy to recommend her.Berivan tutored me in biology As level and was a great help, she got my grades up from an E to a B in 6 months. She was dedicated in helping me get the marks she thought I could achieve. Her attitude was always focused and positive, and she always had a plan of what I needed to do in order to get the best grades possible. She has a real passion for science and she made the subject understandable and interesting; I would not have done nearly as well as I did without her help.
Berivan is a one-of-a-kind scientist and educator. She has an incredible way of working with kids on science and math challenges that is empowering and inspirational. Berivan is reliable, friendly and very passionate for the sciences, especially chemistry and biology. I'd highly recommend her!
Berivan has been tutoring my son for about a year and in all honesty she has been nothing less than a godsend. Our son Ty has been having troubles in his Chemisty class and grades started falling behind. Berivan was the second tutor we tried I believe she will be the last. Both Ty and I are so happy with the work the two of them have done together over the past year. Ty has become one of the top students on his Chemistry class. Berivan not only taught him Chemistry, but rather empowered him and helped him develop a natural curiosity for science, and for that I think Ty and I are both grateful.
Berivan is an outstanding educator with a communication style that allows for even the most disengaged student to find interest and connection with scientific ideas. She has a personable and professional manner, and her ability to connect with students of all capabilities ensures positive learning outcomes are achieved. In her work, she goes above and beyond to deliver material to students that is actively engaging and provides the student with a pathway to success.
Berivan was recommended to me by a friend, his son was being tutored by her and I was hoping to find a tutor in AS level Biology for my daughter. We couldn't have asked for more from a tutor. Berivan was fantastic; organised, sympathetic, alert to issues as they came up and, crucially, able to show my daughter how to structure her studying and revision times. Most importantly she understood that my daughter lacked confidence and Berivan was able to help her enormously with that. Even though Berivan stepped in as a tutor at short notice, and worked with my daughter for just 6 months, I think that her good influence will last a lifetime. In fact, when my daughter was telling me what she needed to do before starting at university (she starts next month, thanks in great part to the mark she got in Biology) she said that she would do some preparatory studying as Berivan had always emphasised the importance of being prepared! I couldn't recommend Berivan highly enough as a tutor. (Ansel Krut - parent)
Berivan tutored my 14- year old son in Biology. She was a fantastic tutor. She quickly established rapport with our son and was able to identify his strong and weak points. She was patient and knowledgeable. She had just the right balance between providing guidance and allowing my son to come to his own conclusions. I cannot recommend her enough.
Berivan tutored my daughter in chemistry (secondary school). She was studying for her GCSE's and because of Berivan's tutoring she got really good grades. Berivan was very professional but also friendly and engaging. She is very reliable and organised, and she taught my daughter many useful study skills that I know she will apply going forward in her learning.
One of my favourite things about Berivan is that she always made the tutoring session really enjoyable. She met my daughter at her learning level and through an interactive and playful learning experience she was able to excel.
Thanks Berivan!Berivan knows her subjects inside and out. I have heard from so many students, especially young women, who were inspired to continue in their math and science studies because of Berivan's patience and encouragement as a teacher. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help in these subjects.
