My name is Ann and I am a retired consultant ecologist with 6 years teaching experience in secondary schools in the UK and Switzerland; 5 years demonstrator experience (practical demonstrator work; lecturing; tutorials and exam marking) at Keele University and several years experience providing private tuition to A level students. Throughout my broad working experience which has included working as a scuba diving instructor; ecological researcher and finally working as a consultant ecologist, I never stopped teaching and coaching whether it was ecological survey techniques to work colleagues or sea life identification to trainee divers! I also have experience as an A-level assessor for Edexcel, marking final exams. I have a huge enthusiasm for my subject and a talent for helping people make sense of complex concepts. My focus is on the needs of the individual and presentation of the topic to their best advantage.

Student reviews

Kim Forward
Ann is brilliant ! Ann helped me through a difficult time in my final years of high school when I was struggling with very low self confidence and a lack of support. She gave me the encouragement and support I needed to succeed with my school exams. Beyond this she shared with me her fascination and enthusiasm for all things biology/ecology which inspired me to go on to study biology at university. She gave me the confidence and practical tools I needed to succeed in my studies and which I have carried with me beyond education and into my career in forensic science.

Hola! Me llamo María y soy doctora en Bioquímica, Biología Molecular y Biomedicina. También soy graduada en Bioquímica e hice un máster en investigación en Inmunología. He dado clases, tanto a grupos como individuales, desde hace 8 años a la vez que lo compaginaba con mis distintos estudios. En las clases me gusta que los conceptos básicos estén claros antes de seguir avanzando, ya que con buenos cimientos puedes construir una buena casa. ¡Espero poder ayudarte a alcanzar tus metas!
