About your tutor
Hi there! I'm Zahra Ghufran, a passionate tutor specialising in GCSE Biology teaching for the past 24 years. During my teaching journey my A Level and O Level students have gained Regional awards and High Achievers awards in the Biology subject.Not just theory but i also specialise in teaching the laboratory related practical part of the subject too. It is due to my experience in the field that i have been managing and organising the CAIE practical examinations conducted by the British council in my region since 2007 for both June and November sessions. With a degree in Medicine and Surgery, I bring a unique perspective to my teaching. My teaching philosophy revolves around making learning engaging and relatable. I believe in creating a supportive and interactive environment where students feel encouraged to participate actively in their learning journey.My personality and nature is found very encouraging by the students to approach me and ask as many questions as many times as they want. By incorporating real-life examples and interactive activities,I aim to make complex concepts easier to understand. Let's work together to achieve your academic goals and unlock your full potential in GCSE Biology!
Teaching methodology
I am a GCSE Biology tutor who specialises in teaching college students. My teaching style is interactive, hands-on, and practical. I believe in providing a structured and systematic approach to learning, making sure to engage students and focus on key concepts in detail. I create customized learning paths to build foundational skills and utilize tailored revision techniques to prepare students for success. My scheme of work involves: 1) Explaining the Learning Objectives and a way to achieve those. 2) Assessing the students prior knowledge on the subject matter. 3)A detailed explanation of the concept aided by diagrams and presentations. 4)To keep the students engaged and the class environment interactive i keep asking questions and encourage the students to do the same. 4)Dictating comprehensive notes. 5)Practicing past paper questions and Marking schemes related to every topic. 6)End of the chapter Test/Quiz to judge the learning outcomes. I believe in regular testing as i feel thats the only way to keep my teaching in pace with the students learning and understanding. By assessing students' understanding of GCSE subjects, I am able to create a personalized learning plan with key milestones to help them achieve their academic goals.
