Information About Minaxi:
Personal Description:
I have worked in Research Science for over 15 years. I completed my doctoral training in Molecular Biology at Leeds University and then traveled to the US to work for their government at the National Institute of Health. Here I worked on elucidating the mechanisms behind the genetics of aging. After 5 productive years in the US I returned home to take a contract position with King's College, London working on developing a novel method of Gene targeting.
Teaching Experience:
I have had extensive experience teaching students from my doctoral training days until my last post as a Post Doctoral Research Associate at King's College, London. I have mentored and trained students from undergraduate level to Ph. D level throughout my 15 years of science. In addition, I have lectured students in their final year undergraduate year. I have privately worked with tutees for the past three years. I am provide tutoring for Early Learning support, Key Stage 1, 2 and 3 English, Maths and General Science, Exam Preparation literacy and numeracy skills, GCSE/IGCSE Biology/Science, AS and A Level Biology and Higher Education/Adult Education Biology. I have tutored students engaged in many different courses including a Massage Course (Physiology and Anatomy), medical students (Imperial College-outstanding firsts!) and Nursing and Midwifery (Greenwich-98% Biology modules). With regular sessions, I have helped A level student achieve significant improvements in grades from AS to A level across AQA, Edexcel and OCR exam boards.
This year I have also helped final year KS2 students students achieve top marks allowing them to enter top sets for Maths and English in High School. I successfully helped a KS2 students studying the 11plus exam -passing the Bexley entrance exams.
Tutoring Approach:
I have found teaching to be most beneficial when I am working with my students on a one-to-one basis and small groups. This allows me to really understand what my students needs and tailor my tutoring and mentoring to this effect. I also find teaching with visual aids and innovative tools an effective method of teaching some aspects of science. Tutoring at this level builds trust and confidence in my students so they are able to work with me on the areas they need most. I believe this trust is important in progressing and obtaining the most out of tutoring.
