In the CIE (Cambridge International) curriculum, Biochemistry is primarily covered in Biology and partially in Chemistry at both IGCSE and AS/A Level. It focuses on the chemical processes and molecules essential for life. Here's a detailed overview:
IGCSE Biology (0610/0970)
Biochemistry at the IGCSE level introduces students to basic biological molecules and processes:
1. Biological Molecules
- Carbohydrates:
- Monosaccharides (e.g., glucose), disaccharides (e.g., sucrose), and polysaccharides (e.g., starch, glycogen).
- Role in energy storage and release.
- Proteins:
- Made up of amino acids.
- Functions: enzymes, structural components (e.g., keratin), and hormones.
- Lipids:
- Fats and oils: composed of fatty acids and glycerol.
- Role in energy storage, insulation, and cell membranes.
2. Enzymes

Biology and Biochemistry course for students who specialize in the field of Biology - Health.Holder of a bachelor's degree in Life Sciences Biochemistry and soon a master's student in Biotechnology at the University of Paris Saclay, I am very well aware of the importance of Biochemistry and Biology courses for students with the passion to become researcher in Biology.
And after an experience of 1 and a half years with students in the field of Biology - Health in addition to my personal experience, I know well the difficulties and obstacles encountered during this course. This is why I am ready to offer my help and support you in order to properly assimilate the concepts, fill in the gaps and finally pass the course.
With me, you will strengthen yourself in the different disciplines of biochemistry: structural, metabolic, enzymology and those of Biology: molecular, cellular and finally in microbiology more specifically in Virology.
My lessons are always interactive, I want to provide you with new techniques to better understand the lessons and become able to make a link in the different disciplines of the program.
As a student, I understand your difficulties and together we can obviously succeed in improving assimilation and achieve the desired goal and results.

Biology - all topics covered from primary to undergraduate levelAs a recent first-class Biochemistry graduate working as an intern in Financial Audit and Value for Money (VFM) at the UK National Audit Office, I have experience working in many fields, from medicine to tutoring to auditing. I have had experience as a glider pilot through my Gliding scholarship, I have worked with my genetics lecturer as a laboratory module developer and I have also been an activity leader in an international summer school. I, therefore, hold a spectrum of transferrable skills with a wealth of knowledge in Biochemistry which I can bring to the students.
My teaching method starts with an initial assessment and consultation with the students to identify their areas of weakness. We then discuss effective revision methods to see which one is more suited for the individual. I action plan or a revision plan will then be created with the student, which is suited to their daily lives.
Following this, we tackle the subject areas using various methods. Making the lessons creative and ensuring the student understands why things happen instead of memorising facts is very important, therefore, explaining certain topics as a story and a flowing process is crucial. To ensure that the student has fully understood the session, the end of each session will consist of a recall period, where the student will have 5-10 minutes to write everything they have learnt and understood in that session.
The student will then be advised revision techniques for the topic and we will create a revision plan for the following week to ensure the content is not forgotten. The student will be advised to recall the topic every other day until the next session and a short 5-minute pop-quiz will be set at the start of the next session.
It is incredibly important that the student is comfortable and enjoying the sessions therefore, some parts of the session will be more informal and others will be in exam conditions to ensure the student also experiences and learns how to manage their time under pressure.

give courses in languages and applied biochemistryMy name is Younes and I give language lessons, for me teaching means learning twice so my learning method is based on simplicity and above all you have to move forward according to the student's rhythm to allow him to learn. improve and acquire new bases and be able to assimilate new information without ever becoming saturated. Sometimes it's better to go slowly but surely. In addition, I am a young researcher in applied biochemistry and a temporary teacher at the university for 4 years, so for those who have difficulties and gaps in biochemistry, I will be there to simplify you and above all to make you discover the world. wonder of biochemistry and thank you for stopping by.

Tutoring for both boards of Cambridge and edexcel. IGCSE / GCSE/IB/AS BIOLOGYBiology is particularly a challenging subject because it requires you to first understand the enormous number of concepts and then memories it simultaneously. I'll teach biology through the slides I have prepared (ig/GCSE only) which are made from multiple resource, such as marking scheme, the book and examiner reports, this is beneficial as while I teach the concept it will come to the student the exact way the examiner wants the student to answer, and ofcource while learning the slides he will be Able to directly do the past papers as the notes are mastercopy of the source itself. Moreover, I'll make sure that each topic is fully understood by the student so there will be no room for error.
