Hi! I’m a graduate of UQ's Bachelor of Wildlife Science and Masters in Molecular Biology. For 2025, I am offering online tutoring for Agricultural Biochemistry AGRC2001 and Chemistry CHEM1004 only. $40 for an individual session, $60 for groups. I am happy to negotiate on pricing as I don't want anyone to be disadvantaged due to finances. Online only, sorry. I am available in the evenings (6.30pm on) and on weekends. If these times do not suit you, I can arrange to be available 7-8am and after 4.30pm About me: I work in a lab sequencing gut microbiomes. My master's research involved DNA metabarcoding of pollen from native stingless bees. During my undergraduate degree, I worked as a UQ tutor for CHEM1004 and ANIM2053. I am patient and compassionate and I understand that study can be a very difficult time. I have lived experience through myself or loved ones with ADHD, autism, mental illness and the LGBT+ community, and I encourage you to be open about any struggles affecting your study if you wish. What you can expect: I'll ask you to email your lecture slides and any other relevant information to help me prepare for our session. I'll complete my own notes to help us to through the content, with a focus on understanding and breaking down complex ideas. You will also gain access to these notes to keep, usually by OneNote. I'll ask for any feedback to my teaching style so we can adjust and set you up for success! She/her Trans ally always 🏳️‍⚧️

Mikayla is a wonderful tutor. There were many concepts that I struggled to understand which she clearly explained for me and she was very understanding and patient.

I hadn't done chemistry before so was quite overwhelmed at first, but Mikayla has definitely helped with my confidence. She is very patient and understanding. Her explanations have really cleared up some fundamentals and helped me to understand broader concepts.

Mikayla is an excellent tutor. She provided great notes that are clear and easy to follow. Her explanations make difficult topics much easier to understand. Mikayla also links different ideas together, helping me see the big picture. I've learned a lot from her and highly recommend Mikayla to anyone looking for a supportive and effective tutor.
