Hello! I'm Khadijah, a dedicated and hardworking medical student with extensive experience tutoring KS2, KS3, and A-Level students. I'm passionate about helping each student reach their full potential by providing patient, supportive, and tailored guidance. Teaching is something I truly love, and I aim to pursue careers in both healthcare and education. My tutoring sessions are customized to suit each student's individual needs, with a strong focus on exam preparation (SATs, GCSEs, and A-Levels) and real-world application of concepts. I strive to make learning both enjoyable and rewarding, building a love for the subject while ensuring academic progress. I specialize in one-to-one and small group tutoring (4–7 students) and have a proven track record of helping students improve their grades and deepen their understanding. My interactive, engaging teaching style builds confidence, sharpens skills, and adapts to diverse learning styles, whether that is written, visual, or hands-on. I hold a Bachelor of Medical Sciences with Honours and am currently in my fifth year of medical school. I also support students with personal statements and interview preparation. Key Highlights • Proven success improving grades and understanding • Personalised, student-centred tutoring approach • Interactive and enjoyable learning environment • Strong focus on exam preparation • Emphasis on real-life applications Availability Weekdays after 3:00 PM & weekends (by arrangement) Let’s work together to achieve your goals and unlock your full potential! I am currently studying for my MD at the UoN. I previously completed a Bachelor of Medical Sciences with Honours (Cum Laude). For my A-Levels, I attended De Lisle College. I’m also certified in Emergency First Aid at Work through the British Red Cross and was awarded a Bronze Certificate in the 53rd UK Chemistry Olympiad.

I’m a friendly and patient tutor who enjoys helping students build confidence in subjects that can sometimes feel overwhelming. I teach both Maths and Computer Science across a range of levels, from early primary all the way up to GCSE, I adapt each lesson to how the student learns best. My teaching style focuses on breaking concepts down into simple, clear steps. I like to make lessons interactive, encouraging students to ask questions and think through problems rather than just memorising answers. This helps them develop real understanding and the confidence to approach new topics independently. For younger students, I focus on making learning engaging and supportive so they feel comfortable participating. For older students, I emphasise exam technique, structured problem-solving, and strengthening any gaps in knowledge. Whether a student needs help catching up, preparing for exams, or simply gaining more confidence in Maths or Computer Science, my goal is always to create a calm and encouraging learning environment where progress feels achievable. I have a strong background in both Maths and Computer Science, and I have worked with students across a range of ages and learning styles. My experience includes tutoring primary, secondary, and adult learners, helping them improve their understanding of key concepts as well as their confidence in approaching challenging topics. I have supported students with curriculum learning, homework support, and exam preparation, particularly in Maths and Computer Science. Through tutoring, I’ve worked with learners who needed help strengthening foundations as well as students aiming to reach top grades. My experience across different age groups allows me to adjust my teaching approach depending on the student. For younger learners, I focus on building strong fundamentals and making lessons engaging. For secondary and adult learners, I focus more on deeper understanding, logical thinking, and structured problem-solving.

Hello! My name is Samantha, and I have just finished a PhD in History and Politics at the University of Cambridge. I wrote a dissertation on nineteenth-century Italian political thought and successfully defended it with no corrections recommended. I have been a university teacher (for both History and Politics) since 2023 and a tutor for schools and private customers since 2020. I also have direct experience with university admissions, having run Politics interviews at the University of Cambridge. As a teacher and tutor, I have found it very rewarding to use my expertise and enthusiasm to help students do well in their courses, become excited about what they are learning, and grow in confidence. I offer tutoring in the following areas: - GCSE (or equivalent), A-Level (or equivalent), and university-level History and Politics. These are the subjects to which I have dedicated my past ten years of university experience. - GCSE (or equivalent) French. I have practised this language for more than a decade through independent learning, university study abroad programmes, and school and university qualifications. - GCSE (or equivalent) Geography. This was a subject in which I obtained an A-Level. - Supplemental qualifications, including the EPQ. - University applications and university entrance exams, including the HAT. I can help students (including those with SEND) with content, exam technique, and essay writing, and I have many resources available to ensure that I can provide specific guidance on all exam boards, exam questions, and topics. I also favour an active learning approach: while I can provide material (such as individualised PowerPoints or revision sheets) and go through the content to aid understanding, I always encourage my students to answer questions throughout the session and practise real exam questions at home. I believe this approach promotes independent thinking and exam preparation while also providing an environment where they can improve. I am very flexible and shall tailor my lessons to each student's needs. My current availability is shown on the calendar, so please consult it to see when I am free to tutor. I update my calendar frequently as changes occur. I also make a point of offering flexible booking options, as I know not everyone's schedule (including my own) is the same each week.
