About Abby
I am a friendly but highly-motivated tutor with a background in research science. I have worked as a professional tutor for over ten years, aiding younger students (11-18) in their preparation for secondary school exams and biology university students with various assignments.
I hold a PhD in Molecular Biology, a degree in Genetics, and have postdoctoral research experience at a top US university.
In person, I have helped students from Highgate, Mill Hill, Fortismere, Habs, Channing, Aldenham, UCS, Latymer, JFS, JCoSS and several other schools in the area. I also have experience working with some brilliant home educated children. Online, I have tutored a range of teenagers and young adults.
I am from the UK and all my education has been in this country. As a tutor, I try to be considerate, dedicated, and enthusiastic. At an age- and skill-appropriate level, I approach topics from several angles to ensure that the subject is being fully understood. I ensure that the environment is relaxed so that any number of questions can be asked.
As a parent, I am experienced with effective techniques to aid engagement in learning and the education of younger individuals, while as a scholar I have the academic capability to tutor to the highest level required.
University :
- University of Sheffield - Molecular Biology and Genetics
- University of Sheffield - PhD Molecular Biology
Prizes and Scholarships :
I was awarded the Perkins Award for Research Excellence at an international conference. I have also won prizes for presentation skills and research at national and international conferences.
Other Qualifications :
As well as writing research grants and articles for academic journals, I have assisted in the peer review of other research studies. I worked freelance for a journal editing service and am willing to discuss planning and editing services for assignments.

I offer science and maths assistance from high school to degree level. I travel to you, if you live in my North London catchment, otherwise I work online.
KS3 and GCSE / IGCSE: chemistry, physics, biology and maths
A-Level: Biology and Chemistry
University level: Biology related only
I aim to mix tutoring sessions between exam questions, where required, and revising the fundamentals of specific subjects, to ensure comprehension. I set homework regularly to ensure that progress is being made and to obtain feedback on the teaching approach that is most effective for the particular student.
I have significant experience preparing personal statements and this can be incorporated into our time.
I also tutor university undergraduate students and have aided several in their progression to post-graduate education. I assist with seminar preparation and research for assignments and provide a dissertation editing / advice service. I worked for a journal pre-editing service for several years and have helped several BSc and MSc students obtain good marks. This very academic extension of my tutoring work keeps me up-to-date with current research in my areas of interest.

I was struggling with Maths and Science for GCSE and Abby was super patient while trying to get my full potential. She prepared the perfect lessons aimed to improve my skills, like doing lots of challenging questions so in the exam I was fully prepared for them. This helped me getting from a predicted 5 for science and 6 for maths, to a 7 in my GCSE for both maths and science.
Abby is a great tutor. She has helped my daughter get both Physics and Chemistry grade 9 for her GCSE, so enable her get into Latymer Grammar School. Thank you very much Abby for all your help.
I highly recommend her.Abby tutored my twin daughters for their GCSE Biology and also one of them for their GCSE Chemistry. She is incredibly knowledgeable and committed, and very quickly built a strong rapport with each of them. They loved working with her!
