Hi! I’m an experienced and enthusiastic tutor specialising in GCSE English Language, English Literature, and General Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics). I also teach Geography, Economics, and Business Administration, offering students both strong academic support and confidence-building strategies. I’m passionate about helping students break down difficult ideas, improve exam technique, and achieve grades they didn’t think were possible. What I Specialise In 🎓 English Language (AQA Expert) • Paper 1 & Paper 2 structure and timing • High-level analytical writing • Understanding writers’ methods • Model answers, mark-scheme breakdowns, and strategies to jump a grade quickly English Literature • Of Mice and Men, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, A Christmas Carol, An Inspector Calls, Poetry • Essay structure, theme analysis, key quotations, and exam-ready paragraphs Science (Biology, Chemistry & Physics) • Clear explanations of tricky concepts • Memory techniques for content-heavy topics • Exam practice focused on command words and application Humanities & Business Subjects • Geography – physical & human geography, case studies, exam technique • Economics – micro, macro, diagrams, and real-world application • Business Administration / Business Studies – planning, marketing, finance, exam writing 🌟 Success Stories Here are a few examples of the progress my students have made: • GCSE English Language student: improved from Grade 4 to Grade 7 in 8 weeks through structured practice and targeted feedback. • Biology student: moved from Grade 5 to Grade 8 after focusing on exam command words and simplifying complex processes. • Chemistry student: gained confidence with calculations and improved two grades by developing step-by-step problem-solving methods. • English Literature student: went from writing short paragraphs to producing full, high-level essays, eventually achieving a Grade 9. • Geography student: improved exam timing and case-study recall, boosting their mark by 25%. Parents regularly tell me their children feel more motivated, more confident, and more prepared after just a few lessons. My Teaching Style⭐️ • Friendly, patient, and clear explanations • Lots of exam practice, model answers, and personalised feedback • I teach students how to think like examiners • Strong focus on confidence, planning, and understanding why answers score marks • I tailor lessons to match each student’s ability, school curriculum, and goals 🎯 What Students Can Expect With Me By the end of our lessons, students typically: • write higher-level answers with confidence • understand exactly how to hit the mark scheme • improve grades quickly and consistently • feel motivated and supported • learn efficient revision and exam techniques 📩 Looking Forward to Meeting You Whether your child needs to boost confidence, improve grades, or push towards top marks, I’m here to help. I make lessons engaging, structured, and fully tailored to each student’s needs.

I am passionate about teaching Maths because I enjoy helping students see that Maths is not something that is impossible but with help even the most complex topics can be broken down simply. It is especially nice when students come back to you with better results more confidence and a big smile. I can teach Mathematics for A-Levels and below. Big fan of football, cricket (which I play competitively for a club in the Surrey Leagues), video games and recently F1 I would like to preferably tutor students in secondary school, however I am open for Primary school students as well. Studied at Wilson's School: A-Levels: Further Mathematics - A*, Mathematics - A*, Physics - A*, Economics - A AS Levels: AAAA in Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Economics GCSEs: Further Mathematics(9), Mathematics (9), Physics (9), Chemistry (9), Biology (9), Latin (9), P.E (9), French (9), Geography (9), English Language (8), R.E(8), English Literature (7) Experienced in helping younger students with Maths Y7-12 for GCSE to A Level through various clubs and programs run through school.

Hi! I'm Merj, a licensed Agricultural and Biosystems Engineer with a strong passion for teaching math and science.
