Bev E.

I am a Cambridge graduate with a M.phil and am an experienced teacher who has taught all of the A level examining body specifications and also IB. I currently work as a lead examiner and exam writer for AQA.

I have taught in schools and colleges for over 13 years, and have been Head of Biology at a large international school. I was also in charge of guiding potential medical students through their college interview process. Before this, I worked full time as a private tutor for 7 years which I enjoyed immensely. I enjoy the challenges and the emotional rewards of working with students to help them achieve their best possible grades in biology. 

 Over the course of my teaching and tutoring I have built up a large resource of challenging and informative past paper questions and have many approaches to teaching difficult subjects. I also regularly work as an exam writer and marker on A level papers and so can offer extensive advice on exam technique and the best approaches to answering questions.

I am enthusiastic and patient and have been told that I offer a friendly and safe learning environment where students feel supported, but also motivated and challenged to improve both their understanding and grades. I try to respond to student preference in terms of lesson style, and am very happy to try new approaches. .
