A-Level & GCSE Biology tutoring in Sale, Manchester.
Biology tutoring to improve confidence and exam technique.
About Vicky.
I'm Vicky, a qualified Biology teacher with 20 years of classroom experience teaching A-level and GCSE Biology. I tutor from my home in Sale, working with students who want to build genuine understanding alongside the exam technique needed for top grades.
My approach is patient and structured: we start by finding the gaps, then work through topics with clear explanations, visual aids and plenty of past-paper practice. I tailor every session to the student in front of me — whether that's a confident learner aiming for an A* or a student who has lost confidence and needs to rebuild from the ground up.

What parents are saying.
Vicky is a wonderful Biology tutor. She has helped my daughter improve her confidence and she gained a B which we're delighted with. She really struggled with the subject before her sessions.
My daughter is dyslexic and struggled with how much content there is in A-level Biology. Vicky helped her so much with turning her notes into more visual prompts and with exam technique. She got the grade she needed for university.
My son is very able but neurodiverse and struggled with some of the questions in GCSE Biology. Vicky spent a lot of time with him improving his exam technique and helping him to break down questions and understand the mark schemes. It's become his favourite science now and he's going to be studying it at A-level.
Vicky tutored my daughter during year 13 for A level biology. She offered invaluable advice and more importantly my daughter enjoyed the lessons and found them really useful. Vicky is an expert in her subject matter and familiar with all exam boards and highly recommended.
