Biology

Many times, students believe Biology is all about memorization. However, this is the case. Yes, Biology has a strong memorization component, but it is the application of the principles that make this course difficult.

Students tend to do very well in the knowledge component of High School Biology.  Where many students seem to struggle in the Application and Thinking parts of the test.

At Zylor Education, our tutoring center located in Mississauga, we take an application approach to tutoring Biology.  Most students can read Biology textbooks and easily understand the concepts, unlike Physics or Math. When we tutor Biology, we teach students to look at what they have learnt, and how it applies to a given problem. For example, the unit on DNA would be related to the mRNA vaccine and how it is helping us fight COVID-19.

At Zylor Education, we teach Biology based on the Ontario curriculum, and approach tutoring the material in a structured manner to ensure that students fully understand the concepts.   During every session, we teach students two topics, and focus on the application of the knowledge that they have learnt. Then we assign them homework based on those same concepts. The practice work reinforces the concepts that they learned during the tutoring session.

Biology opens the door to many obvious careers such as Medicine, Pharmacology, Dentistry and so forth.  However, we encourage students to look beyond these standard fields and explore careers in vaccine technology, genetics, and DNA manipulation using technologies such as CRISPR. For example, the newest field of mRNA vaccines have come to the forefront due to COVID-19.

When we provide students with the opportunity, knowledge and discipline, we may create the next nobel prize winners such as “James Watson/Francis Crick” (The DNA molecule exists in the form a three dimensional double helix) or “David Julius/Ardem Patapoutian” (identifying the gene and understanding the mechanism through which our body perceives temperature and pressure).


GRADE 12 BIOLOGY TUTORING MASTER THE COURSE & SCORE OVER 95%!

Grade 12 Biology is a critical subject for students aiming for competitive university programs in Health Sciences, Life Sciences, and Biomedical Sciences. But achieving top marks isn’t just about memorization—it requires a structured approach to mastering concepts, applying knowledge, and excelling in assessments.

At Zylor Education, we don’t just tutor—we coach you to success with a carefully designed program that ensures you understand, retain, and apply the material effectively:

  • Strategic Learning – Each session covers two key topics, ensuring steady progress without information overload.

  • Targeted Practice – The focus is on application questions! Learning how to appy the concepts learned is key for Biology

  • Zylor Practice Tests (ZPTs) – Before any school assessment, you’ll take our exclusive practice test for each chapter/unit. This allows you to identify weak spots early and feel fully prepared for exams.

For students targeting McMaster Health Sci, Queen’s Health Sci, or UofT Life Sci, a high 90s average is essential. With university admissions becoming increasingly competitive, anything less could put you at a disadvantage.

Zylor Education is the key to achieving your dream score. With our structured tutoring approach, proven methods, and expert guidance, you’ll be on track for excellence in Grade 12 Biology.

GRADE 11 BIOLOGY TUTORING – BUILD A STRONG FOUNDATION FOR GRADE 12!

Grade 11 Biology is one of the most important science courses—it sets the foundation for success in Grade 12 and beyond. Whether you’re aiming for a top university program in Health Sciences, Life Sciences, or Biomedical Sciences, a strong grasp of Grade 11 concepts is essential.

At Zylor Education, we take a structured approach to tutoring, ensuring you don’t just memorize facts—you understand and apply them:

  • Topic-Based Learning – Each session, we teach you two key topics, breaking down complex biological processes in a way that makes them easy to grasp.

  • Focused Practice – We assign targeted textbook questions, reinforcing what you learn and ensuring you master school-level expectations.

  • Zylor Practice Tests (ZPTs) – Before major tests, you’ll take our exclusive Zylor Practice Tests, so you can measure your understanding before your actual school exam.

Unlike Grade 12, where every mark directly impacts university admissions, Grade 11 is your chance to build a strong foundation. If you struggle now, Grade 12 will be much harder—but if you master the material in Grade 11, you’ll find Grade 12 much easier.

Our structured and disciplined approach ensures that you stay ahead. With expert tutoring, targeted practice, and support when you need it, Zylor Education helps you achieve top marks in Grade 11 Biology and sets you up for success in Grade 12.

OUR IB-HL/SL BIOLOGY TUTORS WILL HELP YOU ACHIEVE A 7 (95%)

The International Baccalaureate (IB) Biology course is one of the most challenging high school programs, demanding a deep understanding of biological concepts, strong analytical skills, and rigorous application of knowledge.

There are two levels:

  • SL (Standard Level) – Covers material from both Grade 11 and 12 Biology.

  • HL (Higher Level) – Includes Grade 11, Grade 12, and first-year university biology concepts, requiring more depth and breadth of study.

For IB SL Biology, students typically start in September and write their IB exam the following May, making it an 8-month intensive course. IB HL Biology, on the other hand, spans over a year, with students starting in February and writing their exam in May of the following year.

At Zylor Education, we specialize in IB tutoring, helping students excel through:

  • Concept-Based Learning – We ensure you understand key biological principles, so you can confidently tackle any question, rather than relying on memorization.

  • Structured Practice – If you’re not getting enough practice at school, we provide additional IB-style questions to reinforce learning.

  • Exam-Focused Preparation – As IB exams approach, we shift focus to past IB exams and mock tests, giving you the confidence to excel in your final assessments.

  • Support for IA & Lab Work – IB Biology includes Internal Assessments (IA) and lab-based evaluations. Our tutors can guide you in structuring your IA effectively, helping you meet IB’s high standards.

IB Biology requires discipline and dedication, but with the right guidance, you can achieve a Level 7 and stay competitive for top university programs in Health Sciences, Life Sciences, and Medicine.

🌟 Let Zylor Education help you reach your full potential in IB Biology! 🌟
