About me

Experience

+2 years of exp. teaching at GoStudent

GCSE - English Literature/Language A Level - English Literature/Philosophy My name is Jyotsna and my interests are in philosophy, reading and writing, hence why I want to teach the lot! My teaching style is mostly discussion-based - almost like Socratic questioning. I believe this helps ideas and concepts stay in your mind for longer, as the student is the one that has to do the intellectual heavy lifting. I have just started the first year of my philosophy degree at the University of Durham, after having completed English Literature and Philosophy A-Level. I have tutored a GCSE English student before and have also led KS3 philosophy society, where we have discussions based on the A Level Philosophy syllabus (Utilitarianism, Kant’s deontological ethics and Aristotleian virtue ethics).

Hello! My name is Zoha, and I'm currently navigating through my masters year in my Pharmaceutical Chemistry Degree. I have just finished a year in industry working as a formulations chemist at Domino Printing Sciences, Cambridge - from which I can offer real-world insights that enhance understanding and make lessons even more engaging. I now serve as a peer mentor - once again - on my course, where I support fellow students in navigating student life and academic studies. Beyond my professional and academic life, I have a love for learning that extends into everything I do, which is why tutoring has become such a rewarding experience for me. I teach a variety of subjects, with a focus on GCSE and A-Level Maths and Chemistry. With experience in teaching a range of exam boards including Edexcel, AQA Mathematics, AQA Sciences, and SQA National 5s, I bring a comprehensive understanding of the curriculum and exam expectations. My aim is not just to help students pass their exams, but to instil a deeper understanding of the material, which fosters both confidence and curiosity. My tutoring style is calm, clear and supportive. I understand that each student learns in their own way, so I tailor my sessions to suit individuals needs and learning styles. Whether it's building foundational knowledge, tackling tricky topics, or preparing for exams, my goal is to help students feel confident and capable. I aim to create an engaging, comfortable learning environment where questions are always welcome (there's no such thing as a stupid question!) and progress - big or small - is celebrated. Outside of teaching, I’m always exploring new hobbies - currently, I enjoy sketching, painting, crocheting, knitting and computer programming. I’m also a plant enthusiast, always discovering new ways to nurture and grow! I find that this curiosity and love for learning spills over into my teaching, where I encourage students to develop a similar mindset of exploration and growth. If you're looking for someone who brings strong subject knowledge, and a thoughtful, encouraging approach to lessons, I’d be happy to support you or your child on their learning journey. Let’s work together to build skills, boost confidence, and make steady progress toward academic success! Currently studying an MChem in Pharmaceutical Chemistry working towards first class honours. A levels: Maths (A*) Biology (A) Chemistry (A*) AS Physics (A) National 5s (Scotland): English (A) Math (A) Chemistry (A) Biology (A) Physics (A) Art and Design (A) Bronze Duke of Edinburgh Award 2019 Maths Workshop Leader for Junior Years 2019

Louise B.

Hi! I have just finished my PhD at Bath, developing biosensors for cancer diagnostics. My expertise is in Chemistry, Biology, Maths and Physics (in that order!). My undergrad was in Chemical Engineering (via Natural Sciences) at the University of Cambridge. I have experience in teaching students at the University by helping them understand scientific concepts in experimental settings and showing students how these concepts relate to and exist in the real world- not just a textbook! I like to play music and do Scottish reeling in my free time. PhD at the University of Bath- currently finishing. Developing biosensors for cancer diagnostics. This has involved organic and inorganic chemistry, electrochemistry, molecular biology and chemical/biological analysis techniques. Masters in Chemical Engineering via Natural Sciences at the University of Cambridge. A levels- Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Physics (4 A*s) GCSEs- Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths, English Language and Lit, DT electronics, History, RE, French.

Rizwan R.

Currently studying (MEng) Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering at the University of Sheffield, I am a dedicated Maths and Physics tutor, with around an 2-3 years total experience in person and online, helping students build confidence and achieve top grades. My approach combines the structured discipline of established learning centres, such as Kumon (where I was a tutor for more than 2 years) and the flexible touch of indepedent 1 on 1 tutoring. I achieved a Grade 9 in Maths and all Sciences in my GCSEs and got an A in Physics at A level. I have also had experience tutoring 11+ briefly, and have passed the 11+ myself in 2017. As a student who completed his GCSE exams 3 years ago, I can provide tailored advice and the most up-to-date tips and tricks to help students flourish and achieve top marks. I went to a selective state-grammar school based on 11+ scores called Lawrence Sheriff School for all of my secondary school years and 6th form. I completed my GCSEs and A-Levels here achieving almost all A*/A scores in every subject. Currently, I am at University studying (MEng) Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering at the University of Sheffield.

Nushra I.

Hi, I’m Nushra Imtiyas — an enthusiastic and dedicated teacher of both Mathematics and English, with a genuine love for helping students grow in confidence and ability. I believe learning should never feel dull or overwhelming; instead, it should be engaging, meaningful, and even enjoyable. Whether we’re analysing a text in English or solving a challenging Maths problem, I aim to create lessons that spark curiosity and encourage students to think deeply and independently. I love transforming abstract ideas into something relatable and clear. In English, that might mean stepping into a character’s perspective, debating themes, or connecting literature to real-life experiences. In Maths, it could mean breaking down complex problems into manageable steps and linking concepts to everyday situations so they feel practical and relevant. My teaching style is interactive and student-centred. I encourage discussion, questioning, and active participation because I believe students learn best when they feel heard and involved. I use visuals, real-world examples, guided practice, and creative activities to ensure that every learner — regardless of their starting point — feels supported. Most importantly, I celebrate progress, no matter how small. Watching a student move from “I don’t understand” to “I’ve got this” is the most rewarding part of my work. Beyond teaching, I enjoy reading, playing netball, and jogging every morning. Staying active keeps me energised, focused, and positive — qualities I bring into every lesson. For me, teaching is not just about academics; it’s about inspiring resilience, building confidence, and helping students realise that they are capable of far more than they think. I graduated with a degree in Software Engineering, where I focused on English, Mathematics, and Information Technology. This combination gave me a strong balance of logical thinking and creativity, which I now bring into my teaching. Over the past six years, I’ve been teaching and tutoring students of different ages and abilities, and that experience has helped me grow not just as a teacher, but as a mentor too. My studies gave me a solid understanding of teaching methods, language, and literature, while also strengthening my problem-solving and communication skills. I learned how to plan lessons that are clear, engaging, and structured in a way that makes learning feel manageable rather than overwhelming. I also developed the ability to adapt my teaching style to different learning needs, whether a student learns best through visuals, discussion, practice, or step-by-step guidance. Most importantly, I always aim to create a warm and supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and building confidence. For me, teaching is not just about delivering content it’s about helping every student feel capable and encouraged to reach their full potential.
