Angela - Wishaw tutor






Information About Angela:


Personal Description:

I am a qualified teacher specialising in general science and biology at National Qualification levels: Standard Grade, Intermediate 1, Intermediate 2 and Higher. I studied Neuroscience Bsc and PGDE Secondary Education (Biology with Science) both at the University of Glasgow.
I lived in Thailand, Bangkok for one year teaching Science in English to 5-12 year olds and also English to Kindergarten (2-3 years) and 5-12 years before coming home to study education.



Teaching Experience:

Whilst completing PGDE I have taught in Carluke High school and Taylor High school. Since August I have been teaching science and biology at Greenfaulds High School in Cumbernauld with classes ranging from S1 to S4.



Tutoring Approach:

My approach would depend on the individual as tutoring will be very much based on the needs of the student. I use many methods such as formative assessment and self-assessment and aim to teach for understanding rather than just to the test. All materials would be provided by myself. Students sitting exams would receive support and guidance on exam preparation as well as any additional teaching required. Problem-solving skills would be emphasised and students would be given ample practice.
