Benjie

Hi! I’m Benjie and I have just graduated from the University of Oxford, where I got a First in Biological Sciences. I am now up at Imperial College London where I’m studying for an MSc in Environmental Economics and Policy.

At A-level, I studied Biology, Maths, and Philosophy.

I am really excited to share my passion for learning and hopefully help spark a life-long interest in the natural world, alongside success in exams. I strongly believe that the best route to success in academic biology is linking the somewhat dry concepts to the amazing world we see around us and even to ourselves! This approach helps to organise the sometimes daunting breadth of biology into a more easily recallable framework. I use this same structure in all of the lessons I teach, helping students succeed in both maths and biology. Even if the life sciences aren’t for you in the long run, this curiosity-lead approach will help you succeed wherever you go.

I am confident in communicating with a range of ages and abilities and enjoy adapting my approach to the student. I have a broad range of teaching experiences, for example, tutoring an adult individual with learning difficulties, as well as teaching 8-9 year olds about environmental sustainability.
