Tutor Bio
I graduated from the Beirut Arab University School of Pharmacy in May 2020 with a bachelor's in Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical studies, after acquiring my bachelor's in Biology (emphasis on Microbiology) from the Lebanese American University in May 2016, securing an excellent standing in both degrees. I teach Biology SL/HL and can assist with the IAs and EEs. I have a history of tutoring IB students over the past five years, and I believe that my experience has equipped me with the needed knowledge and skills to assist students in excelling in their programs. I am excited to have the opportunity to be of help to students in understanding biological concepts, explaining theories, and helping students use the scientific way of thinking and reasoning and apply it to relevant cases.

Tutor Teaching Style
I firmly believe that success is attainable for everyone who puts in the work and perseveres. My number one goal is to make sure that students can fully grasp scientific concepts and can thus apply their acquired knowledge and skills when needed. My teaching philosophy is that nothing is impossible to understand but I know that every person is different and so I will go over the required content as many times as needed, and in various techniques giving examples, simplifying the ideas, and connecting concepts to daily experiences to make them clear, simple and part of the student's common knowledge.
In a typical first session, I would like to get to know the student's goals in the course or task at hand. I would also figure out their learning style and their course progress to the date of the session. I would share my strategies and thoughts and ideally, we would develop a plan that works for them. It would be preferred if I could get a sample of the student's most recent work or paper to be able to determine their standing.
