Hi there! I am conducting a PhD student in Immunology and Personalised Medicine at UCL and have over 6 years of experience as a Private Tutor. In this time, I have accumulated over 1000 hours of tuition time and have developed a great track record of helping students achieve the highest grades and their goals.

My experience thus far has enabled me to develop very strong communication and interpersonal skills and therefore express myself in a clear and concise manner to students of all ages.

I aim to create an active, fun and effective environment where the learner enjoys studying and trying new things without the fear of failure or feeling silly.

I listen intently to understand what the learner is having problems with and construct a detailed plan of action and set clear goals to achieve, to overcome such difficulty.

I truly understand that different methods work for different students and I am relentless in determining the most suitable approach to adapt.

I am a huge advocate of good exam technique and have developed many methods to instill this in my students. In addition, I thoroughly understand that exams can be stressful and daunting, but I have developed many ideas to counteract pressure and develop strong time-management skills.

Ultimately, I aim to build the student`s confidence in their work and turn to study into a pleasant and enjoyable experience.


Should you have any additional questions or queries then please do not hesitate to contact me, I would be delighted to help.

Availability: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday evenings.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I have tutored several students, ranging from the ages of 6, all the way up to medical students. My expertise lies within the field of science in which I have taught at all levels (KS2-degree level), but I also have extensive experience tutoring KS2 and KS3 English and Mathematics.

Throughout my undergraduate degree, I frequently led revision classes for my course, benefiting both myself and my tutees, and received excellent feedback throughout.

During the third year of my undergraduate degree, I conducted an industrial placement at GlaxoSmithKline. Here, I spent a large period of time teaching and supervising younger BSc students and apprentices regarding the fundamental skills required in a laboratory and the world of Biological Science and Pharmacology in general.
