►;;►;; TUTORING APPROACH ◄;;◄;;

1) The underlying factor for my success lies in my ability to change my teaching style according to each student`s requirements

2) I provide practical and lively examples to explain concepts in Maths, Physics and Chemistry

3) I guide my students towards obtaining correct answers with a series of well-placed questions rather than providing them with information to `rote learn`

4) I am very patient and endeavour to remove the abstraction in mathematical concepts through simplification of seemingly complex procedures

5) I am a strong believer in building a good working relationship with my students

6) I tend to focus on harder exam questions early on so that students are not overwhelmed with them nearer to exam time

7) I provide students with visual representations in science which has worked wonders in establishing their concepts

8) I ask students to teach back what I taught them a few weeks ago which helps in improving their communication skills besides serving as a revision tool

9) I provide students with efficient methods of doing questions to save time during time-pressured exams

10) I can tip exam questions nearer to exam period, although this is not always suggested

STUDENT FEEDBACK

"Umer provided coaching lessons to my son, Toby, for his Further Maths and Maths modules. He quickly understood the student`s needs and developed a plan to deliver. Highly recommended." - ABH (Ex-COO, BP), A2 Further Mathematics, Sutton Grammar

"He has provided unwavering support throughout my undergraduate and postgraduate business management degrees. His targeted support and the rich experience he brings in more than justifies his premium rates." - B Al Safar (Conglomerate in Middle East), Business Management, BSc / MSc Business Management, Brunel University

"Umer often uses visual aids to explain abstract concepts. He takes time to understand the interests of his tutees and then uses something of their interest to explain complex phenomenon to them. This really keeps the child motivated and involved. Hats off to his teaching style!" - R Hancock, AS Physics, Tiffins` Girls

"More often that not, students spend a considerable time studying unimportant things. Umer has the ability to channel the effort of his students in the right direction, resulting in effective exam preparation. If it wasn`t for him, my son wouldn`t have scored so well in his exams." - C Carlos (father), A2 Physics, Hampton School

"Umer has tutored me from year 8 through to A level. He is knowledgeable, reliable, patient and always polite. He constantly maintains a positive approach and encourages me even when I perform badly. He also helps me organise my study schedule and has remained a great source of motivation for me. I would blindly recommend him to anyone!". - B Basa, Mathematics (grade 8, GCSE, AS, A2), The Heathland School

Sadly, we never used Umer in the end.
He seems like a nice tutor, just right for our child and further along the line for his brothers. However, through circumstances out of our control it could not go ahead.

Umer is fantastic! He always explains the topics clearly and encourages you to speak up if you don’t understand. He is very patient and will not hesitate to repeat a topic as many times as necessary but he usually explains it so well the first time that a repeat is not required. He has a tested formula which is then personalised to target certain areas which you might struggle with, whether its application of knowledge or exam stress. For me, the lessons are fast paced, which I prefer, and we cover both the content as well as how to tackle and approach the hardest exam questions of which he has an endless supply of. When the lesson ends I have always learnt something new and my confidence is restored.

Mr Umer provided his assistance with refining my personal statement. He was able to help articulate abstract thoughts in a clear way. He was responsive and was able to assess my requirements quickly. With his help I was able to construct a great personal statement which helped me get acceptance from my first choice.

Umer is excellent - punctual, polite, encouraging and inspiring.
Could not have found a better tutor for my daughter. She enjoys the sessions and that is the best thing.
