About Geena
Hi, I'm Geena! I've just graduated from New College, the University of Oxford with a First Class Honours in MBiol Biology. I am a very experienced tutor in GCSE and A-level biology, as well as for students taking the Intermediate Biology Olympiad (IBO) exam. I achieved A*A*A at A-level (Biology, Maths, Chemistry), and 10A* in my GCSEs.
I have experience tutoring both 1-1 lessons tailored to an individual student's needs and group sessions. In addition, I have worked as a student ambassador for the Department of Zoology and an open-day helper for New College, giving me a strong understanding of the Oxford admissions process.
My teaching approach is provide students with the wider biological context surrounding concepts they are finding difficult to grasp, which allows them to draw connections with other elements of the course and understand mechanistic details. I believe that, especially with a subject like Biology, the best way to learn is to understand how seemingly difficult and mundane concepts fit into real life. This can transform ‘rota learning’ into a deep understanding of the subject, which is vital to getting to grips with tricky topics in science.
I am also happy to give advice on any part of Oxbridge applications, such as personal statement writing and interview skills.

Geena is attentive, intelligent and passionate about biology. Her approach to teaching is incredibly enthusiastic but also highly effective. Her deep understanding of biology partnered with an ability to explain clearly and accurately can help students get on top of even the most difficult concepts.
