I have been a online part-time tutor for more than four years.
Past student + Placement (after tuition) : Oxford Biology - Biology A* (from A)
UCL Pharmacology - Chemistry A (from D)
Glasgow Microbiology - Biology A (from B)
Birmingham Law - Biology & Maths As (from B)

My personality and qualities fit complementary to tutoring, developing others’ potential by sharing mine. I tutor students from GCSE + IGCSE & A-Level students and 7+/11+ entrance exams, bringing success into the study community. I mainly tutor subjects for Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry and Physics all up to A-Level standards.

I am someone who have academically succeeded highly with 11A*s and 1 A in my GCSE subjects and 4A*s in my A-Level subjects. I am studying at University College London for Applied Medical Sciences, achieving first class of 75%. I have participated and have been awarded many gold awards for UKMT, and bronze awards for Chemistry and Physics Olympiad challenges. I held responsibility as a School Ambassador and School tutoring, volunteered to be a Reader Leader who helps those who struggle reading and understanding the story with success. I aid in writing model answers for GCSE & A-Level exam questions as well. I have also written model answers for exam questions based on GCSE and A-Level maths and all 3 sciences for PMT!

I specialise in working with students on a 1-on-1 basis, easing and tackling individual areas of difficulty at their appropriate pace – something that can be difficult to receive in the standard school environment. My teaching approach is adaptive upon students’ own learning attitude. It is focused on fostering a comprehensive understanding of the fundamentals of a topic, before applying that knowledge to solving questionnaires. I also specially aid with exam preparation to share my own unique methods of working and exam techniques/tips. Ultimately, I aim to develop one’s self-esteem and perseverance to fulfil their own aspirations.

Availability: Varies - but available as much as possible

Willing to travel: 3 miles

Experience: My mentoring sessions are carried out in innovative ways to find the best route for my mentees.

My teaching methodology is flexible to efficiently carry tutoring session for each individual. I collate useful resources in the most appropriate way for individual`s own learning styles, and I deliver contents with tolerance and patience all the time. However, my teaching always involves asking about and going through the struggling content clearly then is based on factual or application questionnaires to check upon the students` understanding then involves various interactive activities such as quiz, mix-match to engage the learning. Through my tutor sessions, my tutees always develop their confidence, self-esteem and their competencies.

I have taught a wide age groups from 5 to 25 based on creativity of my hobbies such as art, which always worked absolutely well, from primary to A-level programmes, including 11+ examinations.

I have many experiences working with children, especially with spending my work experience as an assistant in a primary school class, I was able to interact and deal with various situations to keep the children calm, focused and motivated.
