Olivia S.

Hello! 😊 I'm Cristine Bunales, aka Cristine. For three years, I've been teaching math, physics, and engineering subjects to students from primary to higher education levels, bringing practical knowledge and clear thinking to my lessons. My goal is to inspire students to develop a genuine interest in these subjects and build their confidence. I can help you Ace the following board exams for Chemistry, Physics and Math subjects Board Exams: GCSE/IGCSE - AQA - OCR - Edexcel - IB - SQA5 - GED - KET - Others I earned a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering with a TEFL certificate, bringing practical and clear thinking to my teaching. Throughout my journey, I've enjoyed helping students appreciate math and sciences. I create a supportive environment for questions and challenges. My diverse experiences have helped students build confidence and math skills.

Levels & subjects Taught: Lower Level = Maths, Sciences, English, History, Geography and 11+ GCSE = Maths, Biology, Physics and Chemistry A-Level = Maths, Physics and Chemistry Exam Board experience: Very Familiar with all exam boards especially AQA, OCR and Edexcel Languages: Native English Speaker SEND (Special Education Needs and Disability) experience: Very little experience in this area Preferred student age group: Year 7 up to GCSE/A-Level About me: I am a 4th year Chemical Engineering student studying and living at the University of Hull, with a strong passion to help educate and instil a love for learning in the future generations. Many of these key skills in teaching have been gained through experience in part-time work as a volunteer assistant teacher, educational programs, and personal projects, while also picking up many skills from my parents given they are also teachers. I am Currently learning Spanish and Turkish and have recently taken up indoor climbing and in particular bouldering as a hobby. I enjoy reading and researching about not only topics associated with Chemical Engineering but on many different subjects, from geography to psychology, particularly through attending seminars and creating strong relationships with those from other disciplines. I enjoy travel and experiencing different cultures. Having travelled to Russia, North America, and Europe. Recently travelled to Geneva to take a guided tour round CERN, observe the LHC and converse with many leading minds at the forefront of scientific discovery. Completed 10 GCSE's including Maths, English and Sciences at Langley Secondary School, Solihull Achieved 3 A levels in Maths, Chemistry and Physics from Solihull Sixth Form College Have a First Class BEng degree form the University of Hull and will graduate with a First Class MEng degree in chemical engineering in July 2026 from the University of Hull

Key Stage 3(KS3): Science and Mathematics GCSE: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics. A-Level: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Higher Level: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Exam Board Experience: AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC, etc. Languages: English (Native Speaker) Preferred Student age group: GCSE, A-Level, and Higher Level. About me: I am a dedicated and passionate science tutor with a strong background in biology, chemistry, and physics. I am committed to fostering a positive and engaging learning environment that encourages students' curiosity and scientific thinking. With a proven track record in adapting teaching methods to suit individual learning styles, I am adept at conveying complex scientific concepts in an easy-to-understand manner. My experience spans across various online platforms, where I have successfully conducted needs assessments and designed individualized tutoring services. I am also skilled in preparing and delivering engaging lessons, monitoring student performance, and adjusting teaching strategies for improved content delivery. My goal is to help students master material content, improve their study skills, and build confidence in their scientific abilities. University of Sunderland A-Levels GCSE TESOL TEFL I hold a Bachelor's degree in Pharmacy, a rigorous program that has provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the biological, chemical, and physical sciences. My academic journey has been marked by intensive coursework in areas such as organic and inorganic chemistry, human anatomy and physiology, pharmacology, and biophysics. This strong foundation has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to effectively teach and simplify complex scientific concepts. My passion for science, coupled with my academic background, allows me to bring a unique perspective to tutoring, making learning an engaging and enriching experience for my students. In addition to my degree, I have also completed a 120-hour TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) certificate. This certification has equipped me with the skills to effectively communicate complex scientific concepts in an accessible and understandable manner. It has also enabled me to adapt my teaching methods to cater to the diverse learning styles and needs of students from various linguistic and cultural backgrounds. With this blend of scientific knowledge and teaching expertise, I am well-prepared to guide students through their academic journey in the sciences.

I aim to make learning enjoyable and stress-free by breaking down complex ideas into simple, relatable concepts. My approach is patient and encouraging, aiming to help students feel comfortable and motivated to achieve their best and more while instilling confidence in their ways of thinking and problem-solving. I have completed my A-Levels in Biology, Chemistry and Psychology and am now studying Biomedical Science, specialising in biology, chemistry and a certain level of maths as well. My studies emphasise critical thinking, problem-solving, and hands-on lab skills. Beyond academics, I have a strong background in teaching and mentoring. As a co-founder of our Sixth Form's first Medical Society, I guided my peers through everything needed to go through university applications, interviews for not only medical school but also related courses. I have continued this by mentoring first-year university students, helping them adjust to coursework and academic challenges, and personalising teaching methods for each student. My support has led to positive results, with the students excelling in assignments and finding my guidance invaluable.
