Biology
You’ve arrived at the right place for fun and interactive Accountancy tuition. At tutor house we believe that education should be enjoyable and lively. The tutor house Biology tutors are specialists in their field and have been tutoring for many years. Tutors identify weaker areas in students’ knowledge and aim to improve these areas by focusing on exam technique through the use of past papers and model answers.
“Because all of biology is connected, one can often make a breakthrough with an organism that exaggerates a particular phenomenon, and later explore the generality.”
Thomas R. Cech
Biology is a science that is concerned with the study of living organisms and invisible life. Derived from the Greek words “Bios” and “ Logos” it literally means life and thinking. So it can be said that biology is a subject that can explain questions such as,
How does life work? How do organisms respond to stimuli and adapt to the environment?
Essentially biology consists of five core topics these being:
- Cell theory
- Genetics
- Homeostasis
- Ecology
- Energy
At tutor house we offer teaching for all boards such as OCR, Edexcel and AQA for both GCSE and A-level. Students wanting to pursue careers within Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary science will require biology as a mandatory subject. Many students study biology and then go onto careers in forensic science, ecology and zoology to name a few.
At tutor house, we appreciate that students may have difficulties in some of the following areas:
- Understanding biological processes and concepts.
- Applying knowledge of key concepts and exam terminology.
- Knowing how to condense vast subject material into smaller fragments.
So how can tutor house make learning biology easy?
Provide students with condensed and effective revision material that focuses on the key areas.
Extensive examination practice, along with practice examination questions.
Model answers to examination questions which places emphasis on key exam terminology
Material that focuses on “how science works”; biology in the wider world context.
By understanding the individual needs of each student, tutors can use appropriate teaching methods to ensure that each student achieves their academic potential.
