Science class overview
My teaching methodology revolves around personalized tutoring that blends interactive lessons with a focus on data analysis, problem-solving, and a scientific approach. Specializing in Life Science, Forces and Motion, Physical Science, and Earth Science, I cater to elementary, middle, high school, and college students. By using tech tools like digital whiteboards, interactive 3D models, and game-based learning apps, I make learning engaging and effective. I follow curricula such as A-Levels, AP Program, IB, and others to ensure comprehensive subject coverage. With a collaborative teaching style, I create a supportive learning environment for 10+ students, helping them excel academically.

School Science concept taught by Khusbu
The student and tutor reviewed cell membrane dynamics including phospholipid bilayer structure, phagocytosis vs. pinocytosis, and passive transport (diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion). The student practiced explaining these concepts and their differences. The tutor assigned practice questions and the student will send slides from class before their next session.
Cell Membrane Structure
Passive Transport: Facilitated Diffusion
Passive Transport: Osmosis
Passive Transport: Diffusion
Endocytosis and Exocytosis
The Tutor and Student reviewed genetic code properties, universality, and transcription in detail, covering initiation, elongation, and termination. They discussed the differences in transcription termination between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The Student was assigned practice questions on these topics, and the next session was scheduled to continue with RNA processing and translation.
Redundancy and Non-Ambiguity of Genetic Code
Universality of the Genetic Code
Transcription: Initiation
Elongation and Termination
Promoter Structure and Transcription Factors
Coding vs. Template Strand
Transcription in Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes
The Tutor and Student discussed CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology and then moved on to gene expression, covering the central dogma and the relationship between genotype and phenotype. The Student also learned about the genetic code, including start and stop codons, and how to use a codon table. The next session is scheduled to continue with the gene expression topic.
CRISPR-Cas9 System: A Bacterial Defense Mechanism
Gene Expression: From DNA to Protein
The Genetic Code: Triplets and Codons
Packaging of DNA into Chromosomes
Gel Electrophoresis
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)
DNA Cloning
DNA Packaging: From DNA to Chromosomes
Nucleosomes: The Basic Units of DNA Organization
Telomeres and Aging: The Hayflick Limit
Telomerase: Lengthening Telomeres
End Replication Problem
Telomeres: Protective Non-Coding Sequences
The session focused on DNA replication, covering the Meselson-Stahl experiment, origins of replication in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and the detailed mechanism of replication including initiation, elongation, and proofreading. The Student answered questions to assess understanding and the session concluded with a discussion of DNA repair mechanisms and the causes of DNA damage. The Student was assigned to review the slides and come prepared with questions.
Conservative vs. Semiconservative DNA Replication
Origin of Replication
DNA Replication Initiation Complex
DNA Replication Elongation: Leading vs. Lagging Strand
Okazaki Fragments
DNA Proofreading and Repair Mechanisms
