Medical Student Biology Tutor in Dunedin
Kia ora! I'm Alice, a first year medical student with a passion for learning. I have no previous experience tutoring, but I've taught ballet for 2-14 year olds for three years, and assisted my peers with their work. I'm wanting to broaden my scope of teaching into academic fields. I love teaching and finding a strategy for learning that works for the student, and that empowers and supports them through their learning journey. There is nothing more satisfying for me than when someone I'm teaching or helping has that "Eureka!" moment. I am incredibly flexible in my teaching styles and am willing to work to adapt my methods to help deepen understanding of the subject. I believe that there is no better way of learning than to teach, both personally and academically. Translating academic knowledge into teachable sections is a skill that I am skilled in, and am excited to improve this. I would be thrilled if I could help even one student deepen their understanding or passion for Biology. Biology is an infinitely interesting field for me and I would love to be able to nurture that passion in students. Science in general is one of my favourite things - particularly how every field interweaves and you can use knowledge in other subjects to more deeply understand. My goal for students would be to find one thing in this field that sparks their interest and would motivate them to learn. Building confidence within the subject of Biology and allowing students to achieve their full potential within this field is paramount - and I am willing to find strategies that work to achieve this. I would absolutely love to share my passion for both learning and Biology.

👉 What is the role of DNA and RNA in the study of Biology?

DNA and RNA are essential components of Biology research, as they form the basis for genetic inheritance and help to explain how organisms develop. DNA, or Deoxyribonucleic acid, is a double-stranded molecule found in almost all living organisms. It acts as an instruction manual for forming proteins and holds genetic information that can be passed on from generation to generation.

RNA, or Ribonucleic acid, is a single-stranded molecule that carries out instructions encoded by DNA sequenced during transcription. Together, DNA and RNA are responsible for the heredity of traits in living organisms.

In modern Biology research, scientists use DNA and RNA to understand evolutionary relationships between species and identify mutations that may result in disease or other undesirable traits.

👉 What are the basic principles of genetics and heredity in Biology?

Genetics and heredity are two of the essential concepts in Biology, helping us learn more about ourselves and other organisms and how their traits are inherited. Genetics is the study of genes and the way they are passed from parents to offspring during reproduction. Heredity is the process by which certain traits or characteristics are passed from generation to generation. Understanding these two principles can help us better understand how life works on a cellular level. 

The principles of genetics and heredity work together through DNA – Deoxyribonucleic acid – which carries all of the genetic information for each organism. During reproduction, a pair of chromosomes from each parent come together to form a new set that contains the genetic code from both parents. This code determines which traits will be expressed in their offspring.

👉 What are the different branches of Biology and what do they entail?

Biology is a vast and complex field to study, it has several distinct branches; each with its own unique focus. Here, we'll explore the different sub-disciplines in detail and discuss what they entail. 

The most fundamental branch of Biology is known as 'Molecular Biology' . This area deals with the chemical components that make up living organisms at the smallest scale—namely proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA. Molecular biologists use advanced techniques such as gene cloning to better understand how these molecules interact within cells and tissues. 

'Cell Biology' is closely related to 'Molecular Biology'; however, it takes a more holistic approach by studying cells themselves—their structure, function and behaviour both independently and in relation to their environment.
