About Zara

I hold a Ph.D in Medical Biochemistry and PCGHE (post-graduate) teaching qualification from the University of Kent. I have over 15 years research and teaching experience at University level (including the University of Bristol and University of Kent) and ten years experience as a tutor. Having worked as a research scientist for many years, I have both a theoretical and practical understanding of the sciences - this perspective is something my students find invaluable, as it helps them understand how science in the textbook links to everyday life and technological advances. I teach AQA, OCR A OCR B and Edexcel SNAB exam boards, and have a bank of past exam question papers that I go through with the student at the end of each topic. I am an examiner with AQA, and in the past have worked as an examiner with Edexcel & OCR A. This experience has given me a chance to delve deeper into the exam marking system. I will give you exam-board specific tips on how best to phrase your answer to match the mark scheme requirements. I come across as a friendly and motivated teacher. Tutoring takes place in a relaxed but goal-oriented atmosphere. I strongly believe that negative barriers with studies can be turned into positive outcomes with correct guidance

About the lesson

I offer professional, individualised, lessons in A Level Chemistry, for all exam boards at A Level, including AQA, OCR A, OCR B, Edexcel Chemistry and WJEC. I have over 15 years research and teaching experience, and 10 years exam-marking experience. Lessons are designed to foster deeper understanding of a topic, and develop confidence with exam questions. While keeping lessons fun and interesting, I also push each student slightly outside their usual learning zone in a lesson, so that they can start believing in their ability to solve all variety of complex questions that come up in exams. Lessons always involve a two-way interaction - I welcome questions and inquisitive minds! Each topic is accompanied by a past paper question set, and marked according to the exam board style - I will highlight key points needed to score marks in the exam when going through the practice questions. I can also help with planning and structuring revision. Many of my students see a rapid improvement in grades after a few months of regular tutoring, and more importantly, they start trusting in their capability to do well under pressure, which is a valuable skill to develop for exams.

Zara really helped to improve my confidence, meaning I went into my exam (AQA Biol) sure that the whole specification had been covered. Zara was fun to work with, yet always pushed me a little bit beyond my knowledge zone in each lesson, allowing me to grow in confidence when it came to applying exam technique. Highly recommended!

Zara tutored my daughter Kate for her A levels in Biology and Chemistry. Zara was very effective in improving exam technique, which helped to improve her grade from a D to an A. She was very patient and thorough and Kate felt she could always ask any questions. We were very pleased with her progress.

I have known Zara for several years, as she has tutored both my daughters through their Chemistry A level. She is a fantastic, conscientious and dedicated tutor. Both my daughters felt that their confidence and understanding was considerably improved by tutoring sessions. Each session was tailored to their requirements, and she went through past paper questions with them right from the start, which helped them understand exam technique.
