Biology, Biomedical Science, Chemistry, Maths, ISEE
A First-Class Biomedical Science graduate from Imperial College London who went on to graduate-entry medicine at King’s, Claire focuses on building confidence and nurturing a love of learning.
Claire graduated from Imperial College London with a First in Biomedical Science, and went on to study graduate-entry Medicine at King’s College London.
Claire has taught A-level Biology revision classes in a high school and as a private tutor, helping students with the challenges of a new curriculum and bringing in real-world knowledge from biomedical science. She has taught maths to children aged 8 to 13 in groups and one-to-one, using examples, exercises and games, and has experience with the ISEE. She has also worked with children as a nanny and volunteered with youth and children’s groups in the UK and abroad.
For Claire, the most important part of tutoring is building confidence, wherever a student is starting from. She encourages their strengths while working on areas for improvement, revisiting topics or practising skills as needed, and includes exam questions to maintain technique. She also makes time to nurture whatever a student finds interesting about a subject, as enjoyment makes hard work easier.
