I am currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, specialising in artificial intelligence, at the esteemed King's College London. With a strong academic foundation, I have discovered a true passion for teaching and find immense fulfilment in helping fellow students excel, particularly in subjects like Maths and Physics, which I thoroughly enjoy. I also have over 1000 hours of online tutoring experience and very high success rate. Throughout my educational journey, I have successfully completed A-levels in Maths, Further Maths, Physics, and Economics. These challenging subjects have equipped me with a deep understanding of the curriculum and allowed me to personally relate to the trials and tribulations students often face. By drawing upon my own experiences and employing effective communication techniques, I strive to guide and empower students to overcome obstacles and achieve their full potential. Beyond the realm of academia, I lead a well-rounded life filled with diverse interests and hobbies. When I'm not engrossed in my studies or teaching, you can often find me immersed in the captivating world of video games. The interactive nature of gaming not only provides an enjoyable escape but also enhances problem-solving skills and fosters a sense of teamwork. Moreover, I have a strong affinity for both indoor and outdoor sports. Engaging in physical activities not only promotes a healthy lifestyle but also teaches valuable lessons in discipline, perseverance, and teamwork. In my leisure time, I find solace and creative expression through playing musical instruments. The joy of producing harmonious melodies serves as a respite from the demands of daily life and allows me to explore my artistic side. Additionally, I am an ardent lover of movies and enjoy the collective experience of watching films with friends. Whether it's delving into thought-provoking narratives or simply indulging in lighthearted entertainment, the magic of cinema never fails to captivate me. Overall, I approach life with an optimistic and adventurous spirit, eagerly embracing the challenges and opportunities that come my way. With a blend of academic pursuit, teaching enthusiasm, recreational interests, and a vibrant social life, I am poised to make a positive impact in both my academic journey and the world around me. Cheers to the exciting times ahead! Lower Secondary-: Maths. GCSE-: Maths, Further Maths . Exam board exp-: Edexcel, AQA, OCR. Experience with-: KS1/KS2/KS3/GCSE/IGCSE/A-Level. Languages-: English. Preferred year groups for Maths are Y9 to Y12 (First year of A levels). A level- Pure maths and Mechanics.

Notably, I received the prestigious A* grades in both Maths and Further Maths, showcasing my aptitude for these disciplines. Moreover, my commitment to excellence was recognized with the Edexcel High Achievers Award for my exceptional performance at the GCSE/IGCSE level. In addition to my own academic achievements, I have actively sought opportunities to share my knowledge and help others succeed. I have gained valuable experience teaching students across various age groups, imparting my expertise in Maths and other subjects. My efforts and dedication in tutoring have been acknowledged with multiple awards, including the esteemed Duke of Edinburgh's Award. These accolades affirm my commitment to making a positive impact through education and inspire me to continue fostering a love for learning among students. Through my academic journey, I have not only acquired a solid foundation in key subjects but have also honed essential skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and effective communication. These skills, combined with my passion for teaching, have shaped me into a well-rounded individual eager to contribute to the academic growth and success of others.

Hi. I'm Ade, a professional tutor with over 7 years experience with online tutoring. I have tutored well over 100 students (Grades 7 to 12) in Math & Science (Physics), helping improve their schoolwork and grades in GCSE, A-Levels, and IGCSE. I have a Bachelors degree in Geophysics, a Post Graduate Diploma (PGD) in Education, and I'm currently doing a 2nd Degree in Physics. I keep my lessons simple, with a focus on consistent practice. I also tailor my lessons to fit the student and get the best out of them. Simply put, I help you understand the foundations of the concepts you're trying to learn, and we'll do LOTS of practice—improving your ability, speed, and confidence in solving problems. I am a learner, and I am very good at helping others learn. I obtained my first degree in the physical sciences - a bachelors degree in Geophysics - as I am very interested in how our planet functions in relation to other planets and our solar system as a whole. Afterwards, I obtained a Post Graduate Diploma in Education (PGDE) to hone my skills in helping others learn and achieve their academic goals. I am currently pursuing a 2nd degree in Physics.

I prefer to help students learn using a method that works best for them, whether by reviewing exam questions, explaining concepts with diagrams, or dissecting lesson material to make it much more straightforward. I believe understanding what the exam board is asking for and how the mark scheme works is critical to achieving high grades at GCSE level. During my tutoring sessions, I will always provide hacks to all my students on what will make them stand out to an examiner whilst making the lessons as enjoyable as possible.

I have a robust educational background that includes a Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering and a Master's degree in Complex Systems Engineering that I am currently pursuing. Additionally, I am passionate about child psychology and have read extensively on the subject to deepen my understanding of how children learn. This has truly shaped my teaching style which involves alot of interactive discussions and problem solving which in turn leads to increased self confidence and reasoning ability in students. Throughout my teaching journey, I have had the privilege of tutoring students of different ages and backgrounds in subjects such as Math, Chemistry, and Biology. This experience has strengthened my teaching skills, especially when it comes to understanding different student learning styles. I have found it fascinating to see how students grasp new concepts when they are related to real-life analogies. I find great joy in teaching, and one of my favorite quotes is by Steve Jobs, who said, "The only way to do great work is to love what you do". As a former student myself, I understand the challenges of studying, and I strive to make learning fun for my students. ARE YOU EXCITED TO JOIN ME ON THIS ACADEMIC JOURNEY?

Levels and Subjects: - Year 10 students and up. - GCSE: Maths, Physics, Chemistry - A-Level: Maths, Physics, Further Maths ***I do NOT tutor A-level Chemistry.*** Exam Board experience: - AQA - CAIE (OCR) - Edexcel Languages: - English (full fluency) - Arabic (native) - Turkish (fluent) I absolutely love to learn, and I find fulfilment in it. My favourite way to give back is to teach others, and to spread the knowledge that I gained through learning. This is why I love to tutor. I am currently pursuing an MSc in Aerospace Engineering while working part-time as an engineer. This means I heavily use Maths and Physics in my everyday life, so I clearly understand how central it is to our world today and how valuable it is to master them. I bring this knowledge and experience into my lessons to give my students practical perspectives and real-world insights, helping them not just excel in their grades but also prepare for their futures. Outside of academia, I love to catch up with friends, travel, paint, learn new languages and tinker with electronics and programming.

My passion for education and cross-cultural communication prompted me to transition from a career in law to teaching English Soft Skills and Cross-Cultural Communication overseas. I have taught in-person and online classes in a variety of countries including Thailand, Malaysia, Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Russia, the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey. I specialised in teaching Young Learners, Academic English, Business and General English. I helped students acquire the ability to understand, speak, read, and write in English. I provided academic English instruction to students aiming for success in academic settings, focusing on advanced language skills, essay writing, and academic vocabulary. My experience has made me self-motivated and skilled in teaching students of various proficiency levels. I create personalised lesson plans tailored to each individual's learning goals and areas for improvement. I have a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) degree, which served as the foundation for my legal skills. To further my interest in justice, I pursued a Master's degree in law and comparative criminal justice, focusing on immigration and modern slavery concerns. I recently completed a CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) course to improve my English language teaching skills. My educational background demonstrates a dedication to both legal knowledge and language instruction.

GCSE: At GCSE, I am available to tutor Maths, Chemistry, and, Biology. At GCSE, I achieved 9 A* in; Maths, Further Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Business Studies, Digital technology, English, and, Religious Education. I achieved an A in GCSE German. At A level, I achieved an A* in Maths, Chemistry, and, Biology. Exam Board: I completed all my GCSEs and A levels under the Northern Ireland CCEA exam board (NICCEA i.e. Northern Ireland Council for the Curriculum, Examinations & Assessment). Experience with: I have experience of the NICCEA and AQE system; at GCSE and A level, and, 11+ level respectively. I have experience tutoring a student for the 11+ exam, who completed the exam and got into his first choice (grammar) school. I have also experience working as a classroom assistant for ages 5-7, teaching them basic maths and money skills; helping them to really grasp the basics. I do not really have a preference with regards to age group or subject. About me: I am a 21 year old, second year Medical student at Trinity College Dublin. I am a football enthusiast; both as a player and a fan, and, also work with 11-13 year olds as a teacher in my church Sunday school. I also play a bit of piano after achieving up to Grade 6, although this is more of a hobby than a real skill in all honesty! I am a logical thinker and good communicator; with a large emphasis on being able to understand the question and the problem and then being able to solve it. For certain age groups, I will be using past paper questions to help build technique in answering common questions and, therefore, a create a strong foundation for more difficult questions. However, it is imperative topics are understood before they are tested so more fundamental teaching will always be put in place before questions. Apart from GCSEs and A levels, I don’t have any other ‘main’ qualifications but I’ve achieved Gold in a UKMT Maths Challenge and also completed the Chemistry Olympiad at A level. I also completed optional Scholarship exams at Trinity College Dublin, and am now a funded Medical Scholar for the rest of my degree. I have also completed the medical entrance exams, achieving 3180 99th percentile in UCAT, and 189 95% percentile in HPAT.

He is a very thorough teacher, very patient with pupil. He was able to breakdown each lesson to easy task. I will surely recommend him. He is the best teacher my son has had so far.

M

Manny Hughes

Katie was a stand in tutor for my son while his usual tutor was sitting very important examinations. On each occasion she has proved to be an extremely capable and supportive tutor. I would definitely seek out Katie in the future if my son was to extend his online study.

Chloe Nwankwo

Terrence makes learning about Economics so much fun. He frequently related Economics with my other subjects (sociology and politics) which helped me to have a deeper understanding of all 3 of my subjects outside the syllabus. I also thoroughly enjoyed our deep philosophical chats at the end of our sessions about the state of the world from a Political, Economical, Sociological and even Religious lens! Terrence also gave me lots of tips about degree choices at uni and some insight into Economic History at LSE :)

Yagmur is very friendly and warm. Although Turkish is not my daughter’s favorite topic at all, she loves the lessons with her.

Everything you need to know to help your child pass this essential exam

What are GCSEs?

GCSEs are qualifications that students in the UK achieve at the end of their compulsory education. 

A GCSE grade is given to each subject and calculated on written exams, practical exams and coursework.

How important are GCSEs?

GCSEs are a universally recognised qualification in the UK.

Specific GCSE grades may be required when applying for further education. This includes applications for college, sixth form and university, or when applying for a job.

GCSEs can come with a lot of pressure and expectation but your child can achieve the grades that they need with lots of practice as well as guidance from a GCSE tutor.

At what age do you take GCSEs?

Students take their GCSE exams around age 16, in the last months of the academic year at school, although the syllabus is taught between the ages of 14-16 years.

There is now more weight than ever being placed on final exams (instead of coursework), so students must be well equipped to perform on the day.

Which GCSEs are compulsory?

The core subjects for GCSEs are maths, English and science.

Other GCSEs include languages (usually French, German or Spanish), humanities (such as history, geography or religious studies), art (music, art, media, drama) and technical (food technology, design and technology, computer science).

Can GCSEs be re-marked?

If your child is on the cusp of getting the grade that they hoped for or the result simply does not seem fair, the paper in question can be sent back to the exam board for appeal.

Many students appeal exam results when they are one or two marks away from the next grade up. The right study plan and a good understanding of the marking scheme for each exam can help avoid this situation.

If your child has achieved marks close to the grade line in their mock exams, it could be time to get them some help with a GCSE tutor.

GCSE tutoring with GoStudent

Our GCSE tutors help students develop a systematic approach to learning. Unlike in a group setting, your child will be able to progress at their own pace while receiving individualised feedback.

GoStudent’s GCSE tutors range from graduates with years of experience in a particular field to undergraduate and graduate students who are enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge.

Each GCSE tutor must pass a rigorous subject-based test before being considered for a position as well as undergo an ID and enhanced DBS check.

Our friendly customer service team pays careful consideration to any specific needs and requirements that you may have in order to match your child with the most appropriate GCSE tutor.

The subject knowledge and passion of our GCSE tutors allows even the most difficult topics to be turned into fun experiences for students!

Answering student's questions about GCSE level online lessons

How affordable is private GCSE tuition?

The cost of private GCSE tuition can be as low as £21.99. The price of each individual lesson is dependent on how long your child would like tuition support and how many lessons they take per week. The more they learn, the lower the price of each lesson! Why not book a free trial session for you and your child to see how we can help?

Which levels can GoStudent help with as well as GCSE tuition?

GoStudent can help give your child support with private GCSE tuition as well as offering tuition for 11 levels. Select from a wide range of subjects across the spectrum of school levels including GCSE. Your child isn't tied into one subject or level with GoStudent. Maybe your child needs support with GCSE now but as they get older we can also offer support across different levels.
