Meet Your Teacher

Written around the mark scheme — not the textbook

I'm Hosni Showike, and I've spent 21 years teaching IGCSE and A-level Biology and Chemistry. I hold master's degrees in biochemistry and biotechnology from the University of Brussels, an international teaching certificate from the USA, and I currently serve as Head of Science at Nottingham British School. I've authored five IGCSE and A-level textbooks with more than 20,000 copies sold to students worldwide.

This course exists to solve one specific problem: students who understand the topic in class but still lose marks in the exam — because they copy notes without knowing how to write answers the examiner rewards. Everything here is built around exam performance, not just content.

The Method

The Mark-Scheme-First Method

Most revision covers content and hopes for the best. This course works backwards from the mark scheme and examiner reports — so your child learns the exact wording that earns each mark, then practises it until full marks become routine.

Learn

Concise topic teaching across 60 video lessons, with notes written around the mark scheme rather than the textbook.

Apply

Fully solved, classified past papers show exactly how to phrase every answer in the language examiners reward.

Master

Topic quizzes and progress tracking pinpoint weak areas, so revision targets what still costs marks before the exam.

What's Inside

Everything You Get When You Enrol

60 Video Lessons

The full 2026–2028 syllabus explained step-by-step. Watch, pause, rewind and revise at your own pace, 24/7.

Mark-Scheme Notes

Complete syllabus notes written around the mark scheme, not the textbook — so no revision time is wasted.

Solved Classified Past Papers

Papers sorted by topic and fully worked, so students see exactly how to phrase every answer.

Paper 6 Training

Targeted preparation for the Alternative to Practical paper — the section most students underestimate.

Quizzes & Progress Tracking

Short topic quizzes after each lesson, with built-in tracking to spot weak areas before the exam.

Direct WhatsApp Support

Questions answered by Mr Hosni himself — not a chatbot or a junior tutor.

Curriculum

Exactly What You'll Learn

Mapped topic-by-topic to the Cambridge IGCSE Biology (0610) specification for 2026–2028 — all 21 topics plus Paper 6 (Alternative to Practical), across 60 video lessons.

The foundations every later topic depends on — classification, cell structure and the chemistry of life.

  • Characteristics & classification of living organisms
  • Organisation of the organism (cells & specialisation)
  • Movement into and out of cells (diffusion, osmosis, active transport)
  • Biological molecules & food tests
  • Enzymes

Photosynthesis and plant transport — high-frequency sources of data-response and graph marks.

  • Plant nutrition & photosynthesis (limiting factors)
  • Leaf structure & the starch test
  • Transport in plants (xylem, phloem, transpiration)

The core human-biology systems that dominate structured questions.

  • Human nutrition (diet, digestion, absorption)
  • Transport in animals (heart, blood, circulation)
  • Gas exchange in humans
  • Respiration (aerobic & anaerobic)

How the body defends itself and keeps its internal environment stable.

  • Diseases & immunity
  • Excretion in humans
  • Coordination & response (nervous & hormonal, homeostasis)
  • Drugs

Genetics and reproduction — hormone graphs and genetic crosses that reward precise wording.

  • Reproduction (plant & human, the menstrual cycle)
  • Inheritance (DNA, genetic crosses, monohybrid inheritance)
  • Variation & selection (natural selection, adaptation)

The final topics plus dedicated exam technique for the Alternative to Practical paper.

  • Organisms & their environment (energy flow, nutrient cycles)
  • Human influences on ecosystems
  • Biotechnology & genetic modification
  • Paper 6 (Alternative to Practical) skills & exam technique
