Tutoring Experience

Over the past 7 years, I've mentored students from diverse cultural backgrounds, which has immensely enriched my teaching palette. I started in Oslo, teaching biology to local students. Soon, I extended my teaching horizons to international students, embracing the differences and unique challenges they brought along. During my time in Singapore, I further honed my skills, teaching students from the Asia-Pacific region. Here, I noticed the importance of incorporating real-world environmental issues into the curriculum. The 2019 forest fires in Australia and its ecological implications became a pivotal point in my teaching approach. These events helped students correlate textbook knowledge with ongoing global challenges, driving deeper engagement.

Tutoring Approach

Every student is unique, and I believe in customizing my teaching style to cater to individual needs. My lessons are not just about covering the syllabus; it's about igniting curiosity. I use real-world examples, especially global ecological events, to make concepts relatable. This approach not only solidifies understanding but also develops critical thinking. Biology isn't just about memorization; it's about comprehension, application, and appreciation. Regular assessments and feedback sessions form an integral part of my tutoring, ensuring that each student progresses at their own comfortable pace while grasping the nuances of the subject.
