About Leila

I am a final year medical student at Imperial College London. I achieved A*A*A in A levels Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics, and would love to help others achieve high grades. I achieved the highest score out of a cohort of 250 students at Biology A level, and my A Level examination essay was chosen to be sent back to my college to show as an A* example to future students. I have taught over 150 GCSE and A level lessons online via MyTutor, including in schools under the pupil premium scheme.

I offer a free initial meeting to discuss your needs and make a plan going forward.

What I can help with:

GCSE and A level sessions in Biology

When tutoring students I believe that it is important to concentrate on understanding the underlying concepts of each topic, rather than focusing on rote learning. In my experience, many students focus on rote learning at GCSE, which can cause them to struggle when it comes to A levels and university.

First and foremost I believe it is important to ask students which areas they are least confident in. Do they struggle with experiments? Data analysis? Understanding concepts? Memorisation? I will then ask them the topics they struggle most with and make note of this to personalise and tailor the lessons to each student. I will then be able to focus the most on these topics, making effective use of their tuition time.

During lessons, I will often start by explaining theory and concepts to the students using visual aids and an online whiteboard via Zoom or Microsoft Teams. Next, I will test what they have understood and clarify weaknesses using both simple questions and then past exam questions. I will then go through the mark scheme with them and explain the answers. I will log the marks they got in the exam questions and note down any sub-topics they struggled with. In the next session, I will then ask them a few quick questions on these specific sub-topics to test that their understanding has improved before moving on to the next topic.
