Biology
Biology is a fascinating and important subject which is a pathway to many university courses, including medicine. However, it is also a challenging area of study, as it requires students to master a broad range of content and answer a wide range of questions. At Dymocks Tutoring, we help students to excel in biology by breaking down this content into simple and understandable concepts and providing extensive practice and feedback to hone students’ skills at answering biology questions.

FAQ's
Year 12 biology gives students a deeper appreciation of molecular and biological systems, including heredity and genetic technologies. When taking year 12 biology, you will also learn more about diseases and disorders and their effects. For students who envision themselves having a future in a medical field, year 12 biology is a prerequisite to enrolling in those disciplines at university — this will avoid the need for bridging courses.
Many year 12 biology students find that tutoring, either in a group-based setting or with a private tutor, provides them with the additional support they need to succeed. Our HSC biology tutoring allows students to ask questions freely, receive quality feedback and maximise their understanding of key concepts. Unlike school, students work with their tutor in a small group at one of our learning hubs in Sydney or online in NSW and Victoria. Not only do our tutors have a minimum ATAR of 96 and a band 6 in biology, but their ability to connect and communicate with students ensures that the students they tutor leave each session having increased their knowledge and confidence on key syllabus concepts. We are also the only tutoring college that uses the latest learning psychology to maximise student learning.
The year 12 biology course is made up of four modules. The first module is Heredity, the second is Genetic Change, the third is Infectious Diseases, and the final one is Non-Infectious Diseases and Disorders.
At Dymocks Australia, we’re one of the most cost-effective HSC biology tutoring options. Our year 12 biology course currently costs $1,265.00 per term for 22.5 hours of face to face, small group tuition. Our tutors are experts in providing students with one-on-one support when needed so that all our students can excel in their HSC year and future study or work — enrol your child today for a long-lasting return on your investment.
