Who GCSE & IGCSE Biology Lessons Are For
Aiming for a Secure Pass
Foundation tier students who want a solid Grade 4 or 5, with the key ideas made simple and the exam questions made familiar.

How Lessons Work
A Calm, Structured Approach
Every lesson has a clear purpose, and you'll get a written progress update every six weeks so you always know how things are going.
See Example Plans →- 1Find the Gaps
The free 90-minute lesson shows which topics are secure and which are shaky, so no time is wasted on what your child already knows.
- 2Explain It Clearly
Each topic is taught step by step, using simple language and diagrams, so ideas such as osmosis or natural selection make sense.
- 3Practise Exam Questions
Short questions first, then longer answers. Students learn exactly what examiners look for in each mark.
- 4Revise With Confidence
Past-paper practice and regular recap, so facts stay in memory long after the lesson.

Questions
GCSE & IGCSE Biology: Frequently Asked Questions
Do You Teach Separate Biology or Combined Science?
Both. Separate (Triple) Science Biology has its own GCSE. Zainab also teaches the full Combined Science course. See the Combined Science page for details.
Which Exam Boards Do You Cover?
AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC Eduqas, Cambridge IGCSE and Edexcel IGCSE. Lessons follow your child's exact specification (the exam board's official list of topics).
Can You Help With the Required Practicals?
Yes. We go through each required practical, what it shows and how it is asked about in the exam, including the method and results questions.
When Should We Start?
Ideally by the start of Year 10, but it is never too late. A plan can be written to cover every topic before the exams, even if you start in Year 11.
