Tomiwa Rebecca A.

BSc Biomedical Science graduate, currently in medical school. I teach: Junior Certificate science (all levels), Leaving Certificate Biology (all levels), GCSE Biology and AS/A-Level Biology. I am passionate about making science fun, practical and easy to understand. Throughout my career and studies, I've been immersed in the complexities of science, and I understand how daunting it can seem. But I believe that with the right guidance, anyone can grasp it. That's why I'm here - to break down complex topics into simple, understandable concepts, making it accessible and engaging for my students. My teaching strategy is focused on exam-based lessons, helping students practice with marking schemes and key terms to refine their answers and maximise their scores. By working through past paper questions and understanding what examiners look for, my students build confidence in applying their knowledge effectively under exam conditions. I am familiar with several exam boards including AQA, Edexcel, CIE, and many more, and I tailor my lessons to align with each board's specific requirements. A typical lesson with me involves reviewing key topics to ensure a solid understanding of the subject matter. We'll start by discussing the areas where the student feels least confident, addressing any questions or difficulties they have. I then guide them through relevant exam-style questions, focusing on how to structure their answers using marking schemes and key terms. Throughout the lesson, I offer feedback to help improve their exam technique, highlighting common mistakes and strategies for tackling tricky questions. My goal is to make sure students not only grasp the content but also feel more prepared for the types of questions they will face in their exams. In 2020, I graduated from the University of Essex (UK) with a degree in Biomedical Science (BSc), giving me a strong foundation in Life Sciences, including Biology. Prior to that, I took my Leaving Certificate in Biology, Chemistry and Physics (all higher level) in Franciscan College Gormanston, Ireland. For my Junior Certificate, I took science at higher level and achieved an A.

Hi! I’m Jianne, and I’m excited to guide you through Math, Science, and English. With three years of high school teaching experience, I’ve helped students tackle complex problems, explore scientific concepts, and improve their English skills. In Math, I’ll help you see numbers as useful tools and personalize problem-solving approaches. For Science, we’ll engage in fun activities to explore how things work. In English, we’ll work on reading, writing in various styles, and using words effectively. Teaching is my passion, and I aim to make every lesson interactive and enjoyable. Let’s start this learning journey together! I graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Secondary Education, majoring in Mathematics, from a state university, consistently earning a place on the Dean’s List. I’ve completed several teacher training programs, which have enhanced my teaching methods and lesson design skills. This continuous learning allows me to stay updated with the latest teaching practices, ensuring I provide the best education possible. I’m excited to make our time together both productive and inspiring.
