About Susan
I have over 20 years experience working in the science field as a researcher, teacher and exam marker. I am passionate about my subjects and enjoy passing on this enthusiasm and drive to the students I teach.
I have experience teaching the current AQA, OCR and Pearson specifications in both biology and chemistry at GCSE and A level. I also teach the International Baccalaureate exam qualifications at higher and standard levels for biology and chemistry.
I have overs 10 years experience teaching in a secondary school where I have taught pupils in the age range 11-19. I have worked with mixed ability classes, highly able pupils and SEN students. I have been a private tutor for 9 years and I have an excellent understanding of the changes that have occurred in the curriculum since 2015 and have numerous resources to support my students. I also work part time as an associate lecturer at the university.
I have spent 17 years in academia, publishing my work (two papers published in 2017 and another in 2018). I have ongoing links with local universities and can offer advice and support to prepare students for university life. I can provide guidance with my students UCAS applications, covering letters, interview skills and CV writing.
I am an expert exam marker for a number of exam boards and have knowledge and experience regarding what these exam boards are looking for in the students answers. Exam skills is an area that I focus on once subject knowledge has been consolidated and has been proven to be extremely successful in improving students grades.
I also have an extensive understanding of the required practicals that are covered in the exams. My ongoing research work stands me and my students in an excellent position to excel in this area..
