Hi, my name is Rabiah. I’m a Psychology graduate from Loughborough University, currently working full-time as a mental health coach alongside tutoring. I’m an outgoing, positive, and approachable person who values building strong, supportive relationships with the students I work with. Working in mental health has deepened my understanding of how young people learn best — especially when they feel heard, motivated, and confident. I bring that same mindset into every tutoring session, creating a space that is both structured and calm, where students feel encouraged to ask questions, take ownership of their learning, and challenge themselves. Outside of work, I love traveling, socialising, and creating content for social media. During the pandemic, I also found a strong passion for giving back — and was proud to be recognised as a lead volunteer for the charity Penny Appeal. 👋 About Me - Hi, I’m a tutor with over 2,000 hours of experience since 2021, specialising in 11+, GCSE, and A-Level Psychology, English, and History. I’ve worked with students of all levels — from those aiming for top grades to those just looking to build confidence — and I always shape lessons around what really works for them. I studied English Literature, Psychology, and History at A-Level, and went on to earn a degree in Psychology from a top 10 UK university. I’ve always had a passion for writing and learning, and I bring that energy into every session. ✏️ How My Lessons Work - My sessions are fun, relaxed, but structured. I like to create a collaborative space, where the student has a voice in what we cover and how we work — whether that’s preparing for an upcoming mock, tackling a difficult topic, or building long-term skills. At the start of each session, I include a short activity (like a spelling challenge or mind map) to activate the brain and get focused. I bring in creative tools, real-life examples, and even storytelling — especially in History — to keep students engaged and make concepts stick. 💬 What Students Love- Students often tell me they enjoy the mix of freedom and structure in lessons. I adapt my teaching style to suit them — whether they prefer visuals, discussion, writing practice, or a bit of everything. I’ve found that when students feel heard and involved, they become more motivated and independent learners. 🎯 Results I’m Proud Of - - Helped a student go from a grade 6 to 8 in both English Literature and Language - Supported a struggling History student to achieve a Grade A in their GCSE - Helped many students pass 11+ exams and gain places at selective grammar schools - Built exam confidence and readiness for those aiming for college and university offers I’ve also helped with homework support, long-term exam planning, and short bursts of intensive revision — I’m flexible depending on what the student needs. 👩‍🏫 A Bit More About Me - Alongside tutoring, I’ve had real-life experience understanding children’s needs — I’m also the older sibling to seven younger brothers and sisters, which has taught me more than any textbook ever could! I’m patient, understanding, and always ready to encourage students to reach beyond what they thought they could do. Tutoring isn’t just a job for me — it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Seeing my students grow in confidence, learn to think independently, and make week-by-week progress (no matter how small) is what keeps me going.

Lower level: Mathematics GCSE: Mathematics A Level: Mathematics Exam Board Experience: Pearson Edexcel Languages: English (fluent) Greek (native speaker) Experience teaching students with ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, Autism Preferred student age group: Any About Me: As a teacher of Mathematics, I have worked in both primary and secondary schools in the UK, Greece and Cyprus. Currently I am a teacher of Mathematics for secondary education, and I am also teaching adults as part of their CPD. When I am teaching, I use creative and critical thinking techniques to help my students to acquire in-depth understanding of fundamental concepts of mathematics. Part of my teaching consists of games, quizzes and other creative and fun activities that aim to make teaching and learning easier and more enjoyable. It is also important for me to help my students to learn how to solve word problems, which is a skill that students find hard to acquire. I enjoy walking, travelling, reading, sports and music. Lately I became fascinated with Space exploration and the possibilities that it creates for the development of new technology and how it helps improve living conditions on Earth. I am also interested in Artificial Intelligence and machine learning and how these are based on mathematical thought. I have a degree in Pure Mathematics from the Aristotle University of Greece, an MA in Mathematics Education from Leeds University in the UK and a PGCE in Mathematics from the UK. I have a Qualified Teacher Status to work in UK schools and I have 22 years of work experience in the UK, Greece and Cyprus.

I’m a medical student with a passion for teaching Biology, Science, and Maths at primary and GCSE levels. Almost 10 years in higher education, I’ve learned two key things: 1) Every student can succeed with the right teaching approach, and 2) Learning should be active, using techniques like spaced repetition and active recall. I focus on breaking down complex topics, using examples, mnemonics, and past papers to help students understand. I’m patient and adaptable, always ready to find new ways to explain concepts if needed. Outside of academics, I’m passionate about sports, gaming, and tech. I’ve coached an under-15 basketball team and teach guitar at my church, which helps me connect with students and build trust to boost their confidence and performance. I graduated from Glasgow in 2020 with a 2:1 in Biomedical Sciences and am currently pursuing a medical degree. My strong academic background in Maths, Biology, Chemistry, English, and Geography enables me to offer well-rounded and insightful tutoring.

I am proficient in various programming languages, including C, C++, Java, Python, and C#, along with scripting and markup languages such as JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. I have extensive experience working with students with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including those with dyslexia, ADHD, ASD, and other learning challenges.

To date, I have conducted over 4,350 tutoring sessions, helping students achieve consistent improvement and build lasting confidence in their abilities.

This diverse academic background enables me to design engaging, interactive lessons that cater to a wide range of learning styles.

I begin by capturing learners’ interest through engaging content, followed by focused study of the target language and structured practice activities. Finally, students participate in free practice sessions, allowing them to apply the target language confidently in real-life contexts. I am a patient, supportive, and dedicated educator who strives to create a positive learning environment that fosters the emotional, intellectual, and social development of every student.
