About Me
I'm an experienced tutor, especially in Chemistry, Biology, and Math. Just wanted to share some good news – my students have not only aced their exams but nailed it beyond what they thought possible! I'm all about hands-on, results-driven sessions that make those tricky topics make sense using exam-focused techniques. If you're up for turning your academic game around, hit me up. Let's chat about how we can get you those awesome results too!
Education
I spent my years 7-11 at Harris Merton where I completed my GCSEs and managed to receive As and Bs, where Maths and Chemistry were my highest-achieving award. This overall result put me at the top of my year group and guaranteed me a place at Harris Clapham Sixth Form. Currently, I am working towards achieving my predicted grades of 3As, including Maths Chemistry and Biology where I am due to sit my A Levels in the summer term of 2024.
Experience / Qualifications
I have completed Maths and Science mentoring and tutoring for a small company in Mitcham where younger children less privileged kids were taught. I've also worked part-time as a Band 3 HealthCare Assistant with the NHS caring for both adults and children.

I've completed my GCSEs a little over a year ago , I'm on here to fund myself in the future (primarily university) .
I've averaged above an A (above grade 7) overall with recent experience and am still attending sixth form . Because of this I'll be able to easily relate to and figure out the needs of my tutee as I was in their position not too long ago .
I myself studied based on topic rather than necessarily textbooks , this means that I can make due with any textbook or other material (this accounts for difference in exam boards).
I can teach a concept from the ground up , or to solidify knowledge on topics as well as teach the basic principles for understanding the topic in the first place . I'm especially good at understanding and taking advantage of mark schemes to maximise grades , despite if the topic is completely unbeknownst to you . Though this seems minor , this tactic means you'll almost never score zero marks on a question . Ergo : if you can do half of the questions on a 100 mark test you'll get around 50 marks (high C to low B grade , grade 5 to 6) however even without understanding the rest it's easy to get at least another 15 marks up to around 25 (you usually cannot get over half marks without getting close to the answer , which is why half the remaining marks is a typical maximum) putting your grade up to to a minimum of a strong B or a maximum of a solid A (min of a grade 6 and max of grade 8) all of which requires minimal work which you won't forget . In English a similar thing can be done with punctuation , so long as you use a type of punctuation once ; you can score easy additional marks and get more marks on other criteria due to the examiner's bias . This is my forté .

Welcome to an engaging and dynamic learning experience designed to unlock the mysteries of GCSE & A Level Mathematics/Science! In these lessons, we embark on a journey of exploration and discovery, delving deep into the fascinating world of mathematical and scientific principles.

Key Features:

Interactive Learning: Prepare to be actively engaged in every lesson through hands-on activities, stimulating discussions, and immersive multimedia resources. We believe that active participation is the key to deepening understanding and retention of complex concepts.

Real-World Applications: Explore the relevance of Mathematics/Science in everyday life and various fields of study. From solving practical problems to understanding the underlying principles behind natural phenomena, we bridge the gap between theory and application, fostering a deeper appreciation for the subjects.

Personalized Support: Recognizing that every student learns differently, we provide personalized support tailored to individual needs and learning styles. Whether you're a visual learner, an auditory learner, or a hands-on learner, we strive to accommodate your preferences and empower you to succeed.

Conceptual Clarity: Our approach emphasizes conceptual clarity over rote memorization. We aim to equip you with a solid foundation of understanding, enabling you to tackle complex problems with confidence and creativity.

Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving: Develop your analytical skills and problem-solving abilities as we navigate through challenging mathematical and scientific scenarios. By encouraging curiosity and inquiry, we foster a growth mindset that prepares you to tackle real-world challenges beyond the classroom.

Collaborative Learning: Embrace the power of collaboration as we engage in group activities, peer discussions, and cooperative problem-solving tasks. Through collaboration, we harness the collective wisdom and diverse perspectives of the group, enriching our learning experience and fostering a sense of community.

Feedback and Reflection: Receive timely feedback on your progress and performance, guiding you towards continuous improvement and growth. We believe that constructive feedback is essential for refining skills and overcoming obstacles on the path to mastery.

Lesson Structure:

Each lesson is thoughtfully structured to optimize learning outcomes and student engagement. We begin with a brief overview of the lesson objectives and key concepts, followed by interactive presentations, guided practice exercises, and collaborative activities. Throughout the lesson, there are opportunities for questions, discussions, and reflections to deepen understanding and address any misconceptions.

Outcome:

By the end of these lessons, you will emerge as a confident and proficient learner, equipped with the knowledge, skills, and mindset to excel in GCSE & A Level Mathematics/Science. Whether you're aiming for academic success, pursuing further studies in STEM fields, or simply seeking to enrich your understanding of the world around you, these lessons will empower you to reach your goals and unleash your full potential.

Tutoring for International Baccalaureate (IB) Maths AA HL/SL, Chemistry HL/SL, Physics HL/SL and for International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) International Mathematics (0607), Additional Mathematics (0606), Physics (0625) Chemistry (0620).

I aim to make sure students understand material intuitively first before delving into complicated questions and foster a friendly and patient learning environment. Instead of relying on memorising formulas, I teach students how to derive the formulas themselves, build upon their previous knowledge and use them to solve complex questions in a simple way, building their confidence in the process. To facilitate this, I use metaphors and every-day things to construct stories that help students remember concepts and relationships between them.

My lessons are tailored to each student's needs, preferences and learning style so I am able to accommodate specific requests. I can help students work on improving both overall understanding of the subject as well as detailed and thorough understanding of specific topics/sub-topics. As someone who sat these exams myself, I know what the most common mistakes in each topic are, the best exam techniques and have lots of tips, tricks and resources I can share!

I offer flexible scheduling, with availability during the day, early mornings, and late evenings for lessons online or in-person lessons near South Kensington. Please message me before booking so we can find a time that works for both of us!
If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to contact me :)
