About Dixie
My name is Dixie and I am an enthusiastic student, hoping to pursue a career in medical research. I took chemistry, biology, and maths for A-level and am doing a chemistry-based degree at the University of Sheffield.
I have been tutoring in my hometown for just over a year now, mainly focussing on GCSE science and maths. I have also had lots of experiences of being tutored myself (for A-level chemistry) which led to me achieving a grade A.
I find it important for the student to understand the concepts of their subject instead of purely remembering the facts, as this will enable them to tackle the harder questions which require some application of knowledge. My teaching style is very interactive and I find it helpful to explain concepts using a whiteboard instead of just reading from a textbook. I understand that different students have different styles of teaching that work for them so I always take this into consideration and adapt my style to what is best for them.

During the past 5 years I have either been Form Tutor to or taught Dixie A Level Biology.
I have always found her to be thoroughly honest and reliable, with a cheerful and positive disposition.
She is inherently curious with respect to scientific phenomena. She also enjoys the learning process and during the A Level course she took full responsibility for her learning. As well as being attentive to detail and proactive in understanding the subject content, she was self-reflective in her work in order to refine her: learning process, study skills and exam technique. She worked effectively both independently and in collaboration with others, sharing and developing ideas. She took full advantage of and appreciated the benefits of revision tutorials, working either with myself as her teacher or with other students to resolve specific subject-related issues,
Not surprisingly, she regularly attended our weekly Biology Discuss Group meeting. She voluntarily gave several presentations herself to an audience of both staff and students, as well as being a supportive member of the audience for other students. She clearly enjoys the collaborative nature of science, whether from a point of delivering information or being a recipient.See more recommendations
