Hello, my name is Karina! I have recently graduated from UCL with a Master's in Clinical Drug Development. I also have a First Class BSc Biomedical Sciences degree from the University of Southampton. My favourite subject at school was Biology, achieving an A* at A Level. I would love to be able to share my passion for this subject with you! I offer tutoring lessons in Biology from secondary to pre-uni level, and am willing to travel within Hertfordshire and London.
"Why do I need to learn this?" - this is one of the most common questions you might overhear in a classroom. Some students struggle to find the motivation to learn something if they "don't see the point" in learning it. Having worked at a pharmaceutical company as well as in a lab, I have seen science being applied to real-life situations. I like to discuss my experience with students to connect them to the relevance of what they are learning, which can often be skipped over at school.
I like to bring things back to basics, using whiteboards and drawing pictures to understand difficult concepts. I also believe that mark schemes are one of the
most useful tools available to students, as they enable students to learn what the examiner wants and practise perfecting their exam answers. I do however understand that every student is different, so I start each session talking to students and figuring out the best teaching style for them. I am willing to adapt my teaching style depending on the student, and am happy to work with students of all abilities.
I am enthusiastic, empathetic and easy to talk to - I would love to play a part in your learning journey!

I have had the great pleasure of having Karina as my course-mate throughout my Bachelor's degree in Biomedical sciences. She was always willing and happy to explain complex Biochemical processes to me in a simple yet detailed way. I believe that she is a very patient and knowledgeable individual who really puts huge amounts of effort into anything that she sets her mind to. She is very trustworthy and I would be hard-pressed to find a more reliable person to work with. I believe that she will make an excellent tutor to students of all ages.
