About Katie
I’m Katie! I’m a Zoology graduate with a 2:1 degree, currently studying for my Master’s in Radiography while training to become a healthcare scientist in the NHS. I achieved an A in A Level Biology and an A in GCSE Biology*, and having completed my A Levels fairly recently, I know exactly how challenging Biology can feel and what it’s like to prepare for exams.
I started tutoring because I genuinely love helping people build their confidence and realise that science doesn’t have to be confusing or overwhelming. I enjoy breaking difficult topics down into simple, easy-to-understand explanations using visual diagrams, real-world examples and lessons tailored to the way each student learns best.
My aim is to create a relaxed, supportive environment where no question is a silly one. Whether you’re aiming to boost your confidence, improve your grades or achieve a top mark, I’d love to help you reach your goals and enjoy Biology along the way!

I’ll bring biology to life with fun, interactive lessons that keep you engaged from start to finish. I’ll be very visual in my teaching, using clear diagrams and helpful visual aids to make tricky concepts click straight away. Complex ideas won’t feel overwhelming, I’ll break them down into simple, easy-to-follow steps so you can build your understanding with confidence.
Having achieved an A* in GCSE Biology, an A at A-level, and a First Class degree in Zoology and now studying an MSc in Radiography with a current average of 93%, I bring both strong academic knowledge and a clear understanding of how to succeed in exams.
You won’t just memorise biology, you’ll actually get it. I’ll use plenty of real-life examples, relatable analogies, and clever mnemonics to help everything stick in your memory (and make revision so much easier later on). Think of it as turning complicated biological pathways into something you can easily picture and remember.
I tailor each lesson to the student’s pace and learning style, regularly checking understanding and adapting my approach. I also focus on exam technique and confidence, helping students improve not just knowledge, but performance under pressure.
I also set small homework-style tasks between lessons to make sure everything we’ve covered has been properly solidified and carried forward into the next session.
My aim is to make every lesson feel relaxed, supportive, and genuinely enjoyable, so you feel comfortable asking questions and getting stuck in. By the end, biology won’t just make sense, it’ll actually be something you enjoy learning.

Katie has been an amazing tutor for myself! She has boosted my confidence so much, i really feel comfortable when she is teaching me as she makes the sessions nice and relaxed. We do lots of exam questions to help me know what the exam boards want. Katie always checks that i am understanding as she goes along and is very good at explaining things
