Bio
An exceptionally curious mind with a talent for verbalising complex biological concepts in a manner tailored to my audience- a student-focused approach always wins!
The true master is forever a student. To teach one must first listen and understand: My teaching approaches are tailored to the frame of reference and objectives of each individual. Therefore I am patient, friendly and utilize more pictures, similes and practical applications than textbook theory.

Achievements
• I have achieved distinction grades for every subject from primary school to post-graduate level. I have authored two peer-reviewed medical biochemistry publications in accredited academic journals. All my previous students have passed the modules they came to me for after tutoring.
Subjects
- University Tutoring
Biochemistry
First Year - Postgrad BCHN 213, 222, 316, 317, 322, 321, 671, 621, 622, 612, 611Master of Science Biochemistry candidate with cum laude marks for all Biochemistry subjects from first to the fourth year. Excellent summaries, notes, and test assignments are available.
Physiology
First Year - Third Year FLGX 111, 121, 213, 214, 222, 223, 312, 313, 314, 325, 316Completed all Medical Physiology subjects cum laude- top 3 subject achiever for physiology subjects through all 3 undergraduate years. Excellent summary strategy mentoring, notes and tests available.
Physics
First Year FSKS 111, 121Tutoring only in basic, applied physics for biology major students (Without calculus- not applicable for physics majors). Top experience and results in tutoring students with little physics aptitude in the core though frameworks for mastering what is expected of them.
Chemistry
First Year - Second Year CHEN 111, 121, 211, 212, 221, 222Standard analytical and organic chemistry classes for first- and second-year students- especially those with a greater inclination towards biological rather than industrial applications. Exceptional post-graduate and published research background in the application of the pertaining theory.
Genetics
First Year - Fourth Year BCHN 213, 316, 322, 621Basic and advanced theory and application of human genetics, genomics and molecular biology.
Research Methodology
First Year - Postgrad BCHN 611. WVNS 211Advanced knowledge on the philosophy behind and application of research methodology- especially in the medical sciences field. Hypothesis generating and -proving methodology, research ethics and good analytical practices included.
Human Biology
First Year - Fourth Year FLGX 111 to 325, BCHN 213 to 671Extensive knowledge and tutoring experience in all human biology topics from molecular genetics, cell metabolism and physiology to medical biochemistry research.
Reviews from others
“Gunter worked out of our tutor time to help me understand certain topics that were not possible to complete in our tutor lessons. Gunter was under a lot of pressure to teach me as I had only found teachme2 very late in my academic year but he stepped up to the plate and we covered majority/ close to all the years content in just a few weeks of working together. He made me PowerPoints to answer past papers which I am now using in the rest of my subjects as I found those really helpful and easy to remember a slide/topic rather than the whole question paper. Gunter helped me understand biochemistry and really put the picture/ pathways together for me which I had been struggling with the whole year. Gunter is a very diligent and knowledgeable tutor and I highly recommend him to students that are facing immense struggles in biochemistry like I have. ”- Megan
“Gunter was very helpful in identifying problem areas and filling in the gaps in my knowledge. He is very kind and clearly cares for the students he tutors. He was also available on such short notice and was still able to adequately prepare for our lessons.”- Tristan
