Learn Biology with Serena!

Serena S.

With a Bachelors in Zoology, my primary passion is animal behavior and natural History. I broadened my knowledge by completing a Masters in Integrative Bioscience which focussed on a array of topics including cell biology, ornithology and bioinformatics. I then focussed more fully on biostatics and modelling for my PhD. I'm passionate about research and about the wonder of science.

I'd love the opportunity to help you understand the subject material better, help prep for exams, feel more confident in your course or work through essays and even a defense. I have been a statistics mentor whilst I was a PhD student so understand different ways in which people learn. Together we can get through it, understand it and nail it!

I have a very diverse background. Whilst I have a solid foundation in zoology and all that comes with that - ecology, behavior, evolution and separate content areas such as marine biology, I have covered a large number of areas outside of this. I taught myself "how" to learn and have some useful tips to impart. I'm adept at statistics having done it for 3 years during my PhD and actually enjoy it! I also thoroughly enjoy research and help devise arguments for more involved projects (as opposed to subjects areas) - like working on essays, thesis or projects.

If you have questions or would like to arrange a first lesson, I'd be honored. I want to help you get the very best results you can. I had "light bulb" moments when I was tutored as a child and you don't forget them. Let me help you get your own light bulb moments.
