Rafia

I am extremely organised and patient so that I can deliver the specific lesson plans of all my students. My well developed sense of humour is part due to my exposure to a variety of people. I feel that I have a good all round personality – able to lead and yet to be a good listener.
I can assimilate and analyse information, concepts and ideas quickly and accurately and reflect often complex subjects, into an easy to understand picture for students.

I am accustomed to dealing with people involved in stressful situations with confidence and courtesy through my teaching and other work experience.

I have had a good set of results again at both gcse and A level with students attaining grades A and B allowing them to secure places on medicine,pharmacy and biochemistry in particular.
I prefer to teach in my own house ( and would reduce my charge for this) So that I have all of the resources I need to ensure an effective lesson. I take my lead from students allowing them to set the pace of the lesson thus catering for all abilities,however at times I do push pupils to meet realistic targets, from my teaching experience an effective approach. I follow closely to the relevant schemes of work. I am able to cover all the available specifications and have a resource bank of past papers. I always plan my lesson well in advance, and will have all the resources I need ready for the lesson.For pupils who wish to progress from G.C.S.E to A levels with me I would offer a considerable discount .
