About Lucia

Hi, I'm Lucia, a Chemistry tutor currently completing my MSc degree in Biology and Chemistry at the University of Cologne. I’ve been tutoring for over 5 years, helping students up until university level build understanding in science and excel in their exams and degree requirements. My academic background includes a particular focus on areas like molecular biology, organic chemistry, genetics, ecology, and human physiology. I've also completed several lab-based modules and school placements, giving me both subject expertise and classroom experience. I specialise in making complex topics accessible—from reaction mechanisms and titrations to genetic engineering and metabolic pathways. I’m fluent in German, English, and Spanish, and I adapt my teaching style to each student’s needs, whether they're preparing for the Abitur, catching up at school, or tackling university-level content.
