About Marco
Hello! I'm Marco, a passionate biologist and educator from Brazil with over 3 years of experience teaching Biology to students of all levels—from primary school to college. I hold a Bachelor's degree and a teaching qualification in Biological Sciences, and I'm currently pursuing a Master's in Genomics at Fiocruz Paraná.
I specialize in remote and hybrid teaching, having successfully guided 100+ students through challenging Biology topics during the COVID-19 pandemic. To make learning engaging and effective, I've developed innovative tools like educational games (eg, Surviving Cows and Genetic Bullseye), which have helped over 200 students grasp complex concepts in Genetics and Evolution.
My teaching philosophy is rooted in Paulo Freire's problem-posing education and the STS (Science, Technology, and Society) approach, ensuring that every lesson is critical, interdisciplinary, and student-centered. I'm also fluent in English (C1 Advanced, Cambridge Certified), so language won't be a barrier in our lessons.
Whether you're preparing for exams, tackling tough concepts, or simply curious about the wonders of Biology, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Let's make learning Biology an exciting and rewarding journey—book a lesson with me today!

My Teaching Approach:
As a private tutor, I believe in creating a dynamic, engaging, and student-centered learning experience. My approach is rooted in Paulo Freire's problem-posing education, which encourages critical thinking and connects Biology to real-world challenges. I also incorporate the STS (Science, Technology, and Society) framework to make lessons interdisciplinary and relevant to everyday life.
Teaching Techniques and Methods:
I use innovative tools like educational games developed by me (eg, Surviving Cows and Genetic Bullseye) to simplify complex topics such as Genetics and Evolution. I also guide students through real-world problems and case studies to deepen their understanding. For adaptability, I tailor lessons to each student's learning style, whether they're visual, auditory, or hands-on learners.
Sample Lesson Structure (structured around Delizoicov's Three Pedagogical Moments):
Initial Problematic (Introduction)
I start each lesson with a provocative question, real-world problem, or interactive activity to spark curiosity and activate prior knowledge.
Example: For a Genetics lesson, I might ask, “Why do some families have more cases of cancer than others?”
Organization of Knowledge (Core Content)
I guide students through clear explanations of key concepts, using visual aids (diagrams, videos, animations) and interactive tools (educational games like Surviving Cows and Genetic Bullseye).
This phase focuses on building a strong theoretical foundation while encouraging critical thinking and dialogue.
Application of Knowledge (Practice and Reflection)
Students apply what they've learned through problem-solving exercises, case studies, or hands-on activities.
Example: Analyzing a family tree to predict genetic inheritance patterns.
The lesson ends with a reflection to summarize key takeaways and address any questions.
What Makes Me Unique:
Creative Methods: My background as a former professional dancer brings energy and creativity to the classroom.
Remote Expertise: I've mastered hybrid and online teaching tools (eg, Google Classroom, Zoom, Kahoot!) to ensure seamless virtual lessons.
Student-Centered Focus: I prioritize building confidence and curiosity in my students, making learning both effective and enjoyable.
Who Are My Lessons For?
Levels: Primary, high school, and college students.
Specific Needs: Exam preparation, homework help, or exploring advanced topics like Genomics.
Languages: Lessons are available in English (C1 Advanced, Cambridge Certified) and Portuguese.

O Marco é um profissional com qualidades bem abrangentes. Além de claramente ser alguém com MUITO conhecimento a didática dele é capaz de transmitir tudo isso com tranquilidade, clareza e propriedade. Isso tudo somado à um carisma único. O que é raro de se encontrar. Sou fã!
O Marco é incrível! Cursei biologia e em muitas matérias eu só consegui passar porque a didática dele é impecável, a melhor que já tive contato. Estava com muitas dificuldades em entender assuntos relacionados a bioquímica e genética e ele faz metáforas e analogias e explica da melhor maneira possível. Ele tamabém é excelente em todo o tipo análise relacionada à bioinformática. Gratitão eterna a esse excelente professor!!
Além de ser um profissional excelente, é um professor dedicado e um colega amável, com um repertório e uma didática ímpar. Marco é um professor que se preocupa com um ensino de fácil entendimento, mas sem perder a qualidade e a profundidade de conteúdo. Super recomendo para quem estiver precisando de um prof dedicado e que domine sobre os assuntos!
Contratei o Marco para me dar aulas de Biologia para complementar um cursinho e eu fiquei extremamente feliz e surpreso com a didática que ele apresentou nas aulas. Ele me tirou muitas dúvidas de assuntos que eu tinha muita dificuldade em entender. Nota 10/10!!!
