I am currently a business lecture at UCB , however, I have experience of teaching primary, secondary, 11 plus and assignment support at HE level. Teaching has always been a passion and I am extremely dedicated to my job role. I enjoy all types of teaching and have taught all ages and in all types of environments. Alongside teaching English, maths, and science, etc, I also like to focus on the child’s holistic development which I believe is pivotal. I also do private tutoring online on one to one basis and group sessions. I like to teach my children through joyful interaction which assists them in reaching their full potential and achieving above and beyond their level of expectations. I have seen dramatic improvements from children who started off with very little or no English-speaking skills at all in becoming the highest achievers, furthermore, receiving recognition and awards in their educational institutions. I am very soft-hearted towards the children I teach, nevertheless, this does not mean that they can get away with not completing their studies. I am extremely flexible and can easily adapt quickly to new situations. You will find me highly empathic towards the children and very understanding, regardless of their age. All people big or small should be treated with the utmost respect. I do my best to dedicate my spare time to supporting charity events, group talks, and teaching children.

Hello! I am a current University of Oxford Material Sciences PhD student and have recently graduated from the University of Warwick with First Class Honours in Chemistry. I have helped numerous students go from E to A* at both IGCSE and A Level as a result of one-to-one tutoring. I specialise in Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics, having over 500 hours of teaching experience in these areas. I am also currently a teaching assistant for the Materials Department at the University of Oxford and aid current professors with tutorials and practicals, teaching Oxford undergraduates. On top of this I also have a large bank of notes from GCSE to degree level with plenty of learning resources, questions, model answers, and mark schemes. When tutoring my students, I first try to prioritise their understanding of concepts from scratch, asking them probing questions to ensure their understanding is water-tight. Next, we go through examples and questions together to build confidence. Then I ask students to do questions under exam-conditions without my help, whilst stating their own thinking process aloud, so I can later help refine the way they approach problems and spot common mistakes in their understanding/method. Lastly, I encourage my students to practice further exam questions independently, in order to ensure their exam technique is consistent with mark schemes and model answers. I also am always happy for students to send me any questions they may have between lessons. DPhil in Material Sciences at the University of Oxford: Current student BSc (Hons) in Chemistry at the University of Warwick: First Class Honours A levels: Mathematics (A*), Chemistry (A), Physics (A) & Further Mathematics (B). IGCSEs: (10A*).

I have tutored more than 30 GCSE, A level and 11+ students all over London, in home and online. This has accumulated to successive years of tuition, with students proudly obtaining fantastic grades. My tutelage has spanned to students from London, Private schools (e.g. Eton), Grammar schools (applicants particularly) and even international students (IGCSE). I study Masters of Pharmaceutics at UCL and have achieved 7 A* GCSE grades. This, complementary to my tutoring experience, means I confidently, and enthusiastically, teach English, Maths and [Triple]Sciences in core exams such as the 11+, SATs, GCSE and A levels. I am exuberant when endeavoring a student to accelerate academically, beyond their "target grades" and I know that parents hold the same view. In conjunction with academic learning, I understand the importance of targeted examination-style practice which really boosts confidence. I will: -Teach the full content required in preparation for the exams or of relevance to the academic year -Ensure examination questions are practiced (normally after each topic) whilst manipulating mark scheme specifications. -Provide learning content+ relevant homework per session. -Provide free after session consultations to discuss the progress of learning. -Undergo regular assessments-for evidence-based grade progression. During lessons, I often ask plenty of open-answer questions, which allows for students to find links between two topics. This prevents tutors from compromising the self-learning of students, which is very important for parents. Timing wise, I am extremely flexible and, indeed, punctual. I have an innate feature of make learning energetic and bringing about enthusiasm in students so that they continue to harness their learning naturally, without my presence. One main aim of my tutoring position is to employ students with key skills needed to efficiently learn, especially independently. Thus, during crucial tuition periods, more time is spent approaching exam content, such as examination questions and reports and picking upon more complex revision content. However, all content is still taught from basic to the highest of levels, to ensure full understanding of all topics. I understand that examinations such as 11+ and GCSE’s are becoming harder, more extensive, year by year. My strong understanding of examination boards such as EDEXCEL, AQA, OCR;WJEC and updated grading systems such as the new 9-1 grades, means that my students have a tutor who holds recent, strong, academic knowledge of the curriculum, extensive experience, convenience and an aptitude to significantly improve your child’s confidence and grades! Just so you know: -I live close to central London: Hence I have great access to all regions of London. -I drive a car to students thus commuting is not an issue -You can ask to contact a parent of a previous student of mine, to get an in-person review. -I have a recent DBS check- so you can be sure of your child’s safety around me. -I also offer careers advice, coursework exemplars, scholarship prep sessions -An initial assessment is undertaken within the first lesson

Dear Students and Parents, I have a BSc(Hons) degree in Biomedical Sciences and a PGCE (Science & Maths). In addition to my qualifications, I have over 16 years of teaching (as a Qualified Teacher) and tutoring experience of Key Stage 2, 3, 4 and 5 (`A` Levels) Sciences (Chemistry, Biology and Physics) and Maths (up to GCSE Level). I have taught and tutored from some of the most able to those requiring lots of support with their subjects, which has included teaching in the UK and overseas. You will find that my teaching is very dynamic and relevant in preparing your child for their exams and I try my best to implement strategies that are relevant for the students` learning needs in order to enjoy their subject and to help them to do well in their exams. I am familiar and have experience of teaching the main school Syllabus including AQA, Edexcel, WJEC and OCR, whence this would help to make my teaching relevant to the skills and level of each student as well as their effective exam preparation. For me, effective tutoring is not only about the tutor knowing their subject well but to identify the requirements for each student (as they are all unique) and being able to explain and deliver effective lessons in order that they will understand the concepts and knowledge to a high standard. I believe that this would enable me to help them to develop their self-confidence and deliver the teaching well in order to meet their specific needs. All my students have enjoyed and made excellent progress as a result of my lessons over the past few years and achieved academic success. My online teaching will include assessment, power-points, worksheets, exam practice and homework through the use of Zoom or Skype. I can also offer GROUP SESSIONS (between 3-6 students) at a reduced rate but this will be subject to the number of students. If you would like to get in touch with me then please let me know when would be a good time to talk or arrange a session. Please let me know if you require any further information. Best regards and stay safe.

***Please confirm the times by messaging me as there is a technical issue on tutor house platform which shows the incorrect availability. I apologise for the inconvenience and I am trying to fix this issue asap. Please message me in the meantime, thank you so much and apologies again*** I am currently pursuing a PhD in Physics at University College London in Quantum Computing, Quantum Information.Prior to this, I have completed MSc in Applied Mathematics and Computing from Imperial College London and an undergraduate degree in Physics from King's College London. My academic journey through some of the UK’s top institutions has provided me with a strong and varied foundation in mathematics and the sciences, equipping me with in-depth knowledge and a solid grasp of these subjects. At A-level, I studied Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics, which formed the bedrock of my passion for STEM. Over time, I have developed a genuine enthusiasm for helping others achieve their academic goals, sharing both my expertise and my insights from personal experiences. My focus lies in online tutoring for A-level students in Physics, Mathematics, Computing, and Further Mathematics, and I am also available to assist with university entrance exams and assessments, including the Physics Aptitude Test (PAT), the Natural Sciences Admissions Assessment (NSAA), and the Engineering Admissions Assessment (ENGAA). With over six years of tutoring experience, I have honed a teaching style that is flexible, supportive, and tailored to the individual needs of each student. As a tutor with an enhanced DBS check, I am fully certified to work with students and provide a safe, supportive learning environment. I offer both online sessions and, for those nearby, in-person tutoring at my home. Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of how to support students effectively through personalized learning. I prioritize identifying the learning style of each student—whether they are auditory, visual, kinesthetic, or intrapersonal learners—and adapting my methods to best suit them. By incorporating these techniques, I help students engage with the material in ways that resonate with them, which not only boosts their understanding but also builds confidence in their abilities. Tutoring Experience I have an enhanced DBS check and have been working as tutor for 6+ years. My approach to tutoring is based on building a solid foundational understanding of each topic before advancing to exam-specific preparation. In our sessions, I start by ensuring that the core concepts are well-understood and that students have a thorough grounding in the subject matter. This may include revisiting fundamental principles and discussing topics in detail, so students develop a comprehensive understanding and can apply their knowledge to complex questions. Once students are confident with the basics, I introduce exam material that progressively challenges them. This dual focus on fundamentals and application ensures that students not only understand the theory but also acquire the skills needed to excel in exams. I place strong emphasis on developing exam techniques, covering time management, question interpretation, and linking knowledge to answer questions accurately and with the appropriate level of detail. In addition to A-level tutoring, I support students who are preparing for university entrance exams in STEM subjects, such as the PAT, NSAA, and ENGAA. With personal experience navigating competitive exams and applications, I offer insights into what these assessments entail and the most effective preparation strategies. I can also assist with personal statements, helping students highlight their strengths, achievements, and genuine interest in their chosen fields to make a compelling case for admission. Currently, I am working on a website designed to help students prepare for A-level Physics and university entrance exams. Drawing from my own experiences and expertise, I aim to create an accessible platform with resources, practice questions, and guides that can support students in reaching their academic goals outside of tutoring sessions. Tutoring Approach I give online tuitions. I base my approach to tutoring after evaluating what type of learner they are, whether that is auditory, visual, kinaesthetic or an intrapersonal learner. I can tailor my teaching to meet their needs. Additionally, my teaching method involves providing a strong foundation on the topics first, then giving suitable exam material to further the understanding of the student, ensuring that they have the skills needed for the exams. I can go through the exam techniques in detail so they can link back what they have learnt to answer questions to appropriate detail. My goal as a tutor is to inspire students and help them unlock their full potential, not only by improving their grades but by fostering a genuine interest in the subjects they study. I am committed to making learning a rewarding experience and guiding students towards academic success with tailored support, proven techniques, and a passionate approach to teaching.

I graduated from Physics Education. I have a degree of BSc. I have been tutoring and teaching physics since then. After graduating university I started to teach Physics in an institute which prepares children for national university entrance exams and secondary schools entrance exam. I both taught in the class and tutor during this period. I had students from the age of 12 to 19. That period taught me the needs of students who prepare for the exams. After this institution I worked at three schools which are all IB(International Baccalaureate) schools as IB Physics teacher. At these schools I taught IGCSE topics for pre IB classes as well. I worked as IB coordinator assistant in one of the schools. Since I have started to work at schools I have had students who study for international exams such as SAT, IB. I have also mastered A-Level topics. I have lots of students who study or work all around the world. For example One of my students made me her idol and became a physics teacher. And this year she was accepted to Nanotechnology post graduate program in Germany. I am proud of her. All of my IB students were accepted different universities in Europe and USA with their predicted grades last year. Everyone has different learning style. First 2 or 3 lessons I will discover your learning style. Then I’ll teach you according to your learning style. Some people need details. Some want to learn shortcuts. Others need proof. To conclude I differentiate the lesson according to your needs. I’ll lead you with the help of my experience. I am both genial and patient person. These characteristics are really important while teaching. Because students should feel comforted to ask the things that they do not understand.
