IB Biology SL & HL: Tutor for Easy understanding & preparation for past papers questions, final papers, IA

I am an IB Biology teacher that teaches both SL & HL courses. I have been teaching for over 15 years. I can make learning biology fun and give tips on how to understand things in an easier way in order to succeed on the final papers and/or the Internal Assessment / Individual Investigation. I have created my own personal PowerPoint slides that can aid a student in a clear and efficient way. Practicing and reviewing past paper questions is essential to gain confidence and experience on a student's final assessment, which I can definitely provide and assist in.

I have been trained in the current 2016 - 2022 curriculum AND the new curriculum starting from Fall 2023.

Very patient and professional teacher with a deep knowledge about an IB programme. Unfortunately we were unable to ask him to tutor our daughter due to a scheduling conflict but otherwise we would have. Highly recommended!
Great teacher, really recommend if you’re taking IB biology. He makes the course easier to understand.

Biology and Chemistry: Secondary education - private lessons.
Need help with geography, biology or chemistry? As a civil engineer, 31, I am happy to help you! Learn at your pace and with many examples to clarify the learning material. I have years of experience in learning simple and complex material. The lessons run as follows. First, we look together for the student's biggest stumbling blocks. These can be related to the subject matter as well as to the study method. From there, I work at the pace of the student and encourage them to ask as many questions as possible. I also give tips and tricks, and improve their working methods where necessary. During the lesson I give many examples to make the subject matter more interesting and we solve exercises together. Once practiced from the lesson, I mastered challenging exercises to also test the deeper understanding of the subject matter. In this way I try to optimally prepare the student for his/her exam test. However, learning should also be enjoyable. That is why I always strive for a bond with the student through a spontaneous and positive approach. I am also very patient. All this to solve and improve the problems. Are you interested? Don't hesitate to receive me! Please come! Timo
