    About Me

    Hi! I am Julia.

    I’m a first-year Microbiology student at the University of Manchester, passionate about biology and also love diving into history and economics. I’m outgoing and enjoy working with kids, making learning fun and engaging. I’ve had plenty of experience helping classmates and younger students tackle tough problems. Plus, I’m bilingual, so I can teach in more than one language. Looking forward to helping you succeed!

    Education

    I completed my high school education with a strong focus on science and mathematics. I studied Mathematics, Biology, Further Mathematics, and Economics, achieving AABB in my final exams. During my IGCSE years, I developed a deep interest in biology and scored a 7 out of 9 in IGCSE Biology. My passion for the subject has only grown since then, leading me to pursue a degree in Microbiology at the University of Manchester, where I am currently in my first year. My academic background, combined with a keen interest in the biological sciences, has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to excel in this field.

    Experience / Qualifications

    During high school, I actively participated in various competitions, gaining valuable experience beyond the classroom. One of my proudest achievements was winning a global silver medal in the British Biology Olympiad (BBO), which challenged me to deepen my understanding of biology and apply my knowledge in new and exciting ways. These competitions not only broadened my scientific perspective but also helped me develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. The knowledge I gained from these experiences has been invaluable, providing me with a solid foundation that complements my formal education and continues to benefit me in my current studies.
    This course is designed to introduce students to the fascinating world of biology, focusing on the GCSE curriculum. Through engaging content and captivating stories, we’ll explore key biological concepts, from the structure of cells to the ecosystems around us. Whether your child is just beginning to develop an interest in biology or is eager to dive deeper, this course will ignite their curiosity and help them connect science to the world around them. It’s perfect for young explorers ready to discover the wonders of life!

    Chinese (mandarin) lessons for adults and kids of all levels
    I have been giving chinese lessons for more than 10 years. Before that, I was a radio broadcaster and a journalist in China, hence I have a perfect pronunciation of the official mandarin, without any accent. It provides my students the best conditions to learn chinese, as the tone you give to words when you speak chinese as a foreigner is of great importance if you want to be understood by natives. I have a strong working experience helping students preparing their HSK exam, I also often teach diplomats, to help them acquire the necessary skills and understand properly the vocabulary specific to their job. I also love to work with kids, as I was a mandarin teacher for 2 years in an international school in Singapore. I give them a playful learning environment and use fun learning methods, so even the youngest can stay focused!

    Learn Chinese from A1 to C2, from having fun to prepare test
    I run private lessons, where all levels are welcome. But if you’re a total beginner then I offer basic classes to help you find the way to get into it. I develop diverse methods of teaching for the students. For the around 5-8 years old kids, I would like to set certain games to play with them, thereby the kids can learn the new language during the interaction and communication. In this way, different media, like color pictures, puppets, or storybooks are essential to make the course very attractive. For the teenager or advanced students, a structuralized teaching content based on scenarios or textbook could help the students to develop their language capacity efficiently in different aspects – listening, reading, speaking, and writing. Besides, I would like to give a deeper perspective for the Chinese- not only learning the language from the textbooks, but also the knowledge of the language, the culture, and the literature. Also, based on your need and situation, we choose different textbooks and make a personal teaching plan for you.
