About Avery

Hi, my name is Avery and I'm a recent graduate from the University of Edinburgh, with a first class BSc (Hons) in Biomedical Sciences. I have been tutoring for two years alongside my studies, mainly through Zoom and Skype, although sometimes in person. I have always recieved positive feedback from my students and from the parents of the students. I have tutored a range of ages (from 9 to 18) in a range of subjects (Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Physics, Economics, & English).
Not only has the feedback been about improved grades or good exam results, but also about their confidence in themselves. I have found that especially since the disruption to education COVID-19 caused, the confidence of kids in the classroom has gone down, and I try to help with this.

Having gone through both the IB Diploma and GCSEs, I have a good understanding of the syllabus and how the qualifications function. My higher level subjects were Biology, Chemistry and Economics, and the first two I still study regularly in my degree. I grew up bilingual and am fluent in Spanish, so I am comfortable tutoring in this up to GCSE level.

I have tutored A-Level and Scottish National 5s despite not having taken these myself. However, I have studied the syllabuses to understand them and feel confident in tutoring these as well.

I have always enjoyed working with children and this year I was the Training Officer for an entirely student-run charity in Edinburgh. I have worked closely with most of the 130 children who we support over the 4 years I have been with this organisation, and have done additional volunteer tutoring for those that have needed educational support. Besides this, in my role as Training Officer, I come up with creative ways to teach the volunteers what they need to know to work with the kids.

I am able to provide references from past students and parents. Please message to request these.

About the lesson

My lessons are typically an hour long. I have always used the approach of student led teaching in my classes. I let the student tell me what they need to work on, and we go at their pace, uncovering new topics to improve. I always want the students to feel comfortable and able to ask me to explain something again. I adapt my lessons as I learn more about their learning style, being creative in my approach until we find what works best for them. I want my students to go away from the lessons feeling confident in their own abilities, and excited about having finally understood something.

Perfect! Tutoring from Avery for IB
Avery tutored me in IB Economics and Biology for around 6 months. She was really helpful in preparing me for my exams. I would recommend!
Outcome : did extremely well in my mocks and other quizzes and I had a better understanding of the class because of her :)

I have worked with Avery leading activities for groups of up to 12 children and she always goes above and beyond to make sure every child is engaged and involved in the activity, comfortable and having fun, including those with additional learning needs. She is always comes highly prepared yet remains flexible to adapt plans to every child and I would recommend her as a tutor to anyone!
