My name is Monica and I have just graduated from St. Andrews with an MA in history and social anthropology. I always loved history and indeed still do. I choose to study anthropology because my English teacher got rather annoyed at my consistent questions about the characters' lives. "Just go study anthropology then" - and that is what I did. I am have graduated with a further masters with distinction in the history of Scotland and am moving onto a PHD this October. I love being able to combine my two passions in one degree. I try to explain it as anthropology giving an understanding of the present and history of the past. The marriage of the two academic subjects is interesting, indeed. For example, for my dissertation in the School of Anthropology looks at the community in Glasgow in 1...

Hello! My name is Aminah, and I’m an Accounting and Finance student at Aston University with a strong academic background in Maths and a passion for helping students feel more confident and capable in the subject. I understand that every student has a different learning style, which is why I adapt my teaching methods to suit their individual needs. Whether you’re struggling with basic concepts or aiming for top grades, I create lessons that are structured, supportive, and easy to follow — always encouraging questions and active participation. My approach is patient, calm, and clear. I break down topics step by step and use real-life examples to help ideas stick. I want my students to not only improve academically but to build long-term confidence in their abilities. Outside of tutoring, I love baking, reading, and solving puzzles — hobbies that help me stay creative and detail-oriented, which also influences how I teach. I believe learning should be enjoyable and engaging, and I strive to bring that into every session. If you’re looking for a tutor who’s approachable, committed, and ready to help you grow in Maths, I’d be excited to work with you! I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and Finance at Aston University. This course has deepened my understanding of numbers, logical thinking, and problem-solving—skills that are essential in both mathematics and tutoring. Before university, I completed my GCSEs and A Levels at King Edward VI Lordswood School for Girls. At GCSE level, I achieved a grade 8 in Mathematics, which I’m especially proud of. Having recently gone through the exam process myself, I understand the challenges that KS1 to GCSE students face, and I’m well-equipped to guide them with effective study techniques, structured support, and encouragement. My academic journey has given me a strong foundation in maths and a clear sense of how to explain concepts in a way that is simple, engaging, and tailored to each student’s learning style. I’m passionate about helping students gain confidence, tackle difficult topics, and achieve their full potential.

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.

Aishwarya G.

Hi there! I’m Aishu, and I’m here to turn those "I don't get it" moments into "Aha!" breakthroughs. Whether you’re a Year 5 student tackling the 11+ for the first time, a GCSE student navigating the pressure of mocks, or an A-Level specialist diving into complex theories, I’ve got your back. I don’t believe in "one size fits all" teaching; instead, I tailor every session to your unique learning style—mixing exam-cracking strategies with genuine subject passion. My goal isn't just to help you pass an exam, but to build the confidence and critical thinking skills that make the hard stuff feel easy. Let’s stop stressing about the grades and start mastering the material together! About Me I am a high-achieving Economics student at Queen Mary University of London, but my journey started exactly where many of my students are now. I personally navigated the 11+ process, successfully gaining a place at Wallington High School for Girls, before moving on to St Olave’s Grammar School for Sixth Form—consistently ranked as one of the top-performing schools in the UK. Having walked this path myself, I know exactly what it takes to secure a place at a top-tier grammar school and how to thrive once you get there. My Academic Record My educational background is built on a foundation of academic rigor and discipline: GCSEs: I completed 11 GCSEs with top marks at Wallington, giving me a broad and versatile knowledge base. A-Levels: At St Olave’s, I tackled a demanding workload of 5 AS Levels and 3 A-Levels, honing the advanced analytical skills I now use in my Economics degree. Experience: I don't just teach the syllabus; I teach the exam technique and mindset required by the country’s most competitive institutions. How I Can Help You Whether you are a Year 5 student preparing for the 11+ and looking for guidance from someone who has been in your shoes, or an A-Level student aiming for a Russell Group university, I provide the roadmap to get there. My tutoring is strategic, supportive, and deeply informed by my experience at the UK’s leading grammar and sixth-form schools. I know the pressure, I know the content, and I know how to help you succeed.

Hi everyone, my name's Saoban, but you can call me Sao. I’m a medical student whose focus is on Biology, Chemistry, and Maths, but I can teach a range of subjects. My academic background is science-focused, which medicine requires a strong foundation in. I apply this directly in my teaching. Outside of teaching and medicine, I’m interested in fitness, health science, and personal development. I enjoy understanding how the body works and how small improvements compound over time - I find the same principle applies to studying. I am a third-year medical student with exposure to core pre-clinical sciences (biology, chemistry, biochemistry) at a university level I completed my GCSEs (including triple science) in Sherborne Qatar senior school, and moved to Doha College for my ALevels (Biology, Chemistry, Maths)
