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.

I am an experienced mathematics tutor with a strong background in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the University of Bristol. Over the past five years, I have successfully delivered tailored, one-to-one tutoring sessions for students of all abilities, including those with neurodivergencies. My approach focuses on diagnostic assessment, breaking down complex topics into clear steps, and building automated tracking to measure progress. Dedicated to making maths engaging and accessible, I love helping students build long-term confidence and achieve their full potential. I hold a 2:1 master's degree (MEng) in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the University of Bristol, where I specialised in Communications and Coding. This rigorous program provided me with a strong mathematical foundation across signal processing and data transmission. Prior to university, I excelled in my A Levels, achieving straight A grades in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry, and was named Physicist of the Year by Imperial College London. I also earned a Bronze Award in the Oxford Physics Olympiad, placing in the top 1-3% nationally.

Hello! I’m Harshini Mahesh Kumar, a dedicated STEM educator passionate about helping students build confidence, achieve academic success, and develop a genuine love for learning. With extensive experience teaching and tutoring Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology across GCSE and A-Level, I create personalised lessons tailored to each student’s learning style, strengths, and academic goals. Whether a student is aiming to improve their grades, prepare for examinations, or strengthen their understanding of core concepts, I provide structured guidance and continuous support every step of the way. I specialise in explaining complex concepts in a clear, engaging, and practical manner, helping students develop strong analytical and problem-solving skills while building a deeper understanding of STEM subjects. I believe every student has the ability to succeed when they are supported, challenged, and encouraged in the right way. My lessons are interactive, positive, and designed to build both knowledge and confidence, creating an environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, think independently, and achieve their full potential. If you’re looking for a patient, enthusiastic, and committed tutor who is passionate about helping students excel in STEM subjects, I’d be delighted to support your learning journey. I hold a Master of Science (MSc) in Molecular Biotechnology from the University of Hertfordshire, where I developed advanced knowledge in molecular biology, genetics, cell biology, protein science, and bioinformatics. My studies provided extensive practical experience in laboratory techniques, research methodologies, recombinant DNA technology, next-generation sequencing, and genomics, equipping me with strong analytical and scientific research skills. I previously completed a Bachelor of Technology (BTech) in Biotechnology. This programme established a solid foundation in biotechnology, microbiology, molecular biology, and laboratory practices while strengthening my problem-solving, critical thinking, and scientific communication abilities through research projects and practical laboratory work. Alongside my academic qualifications, I have gained valuable experience supporting scientific research and delivering high-quality STEM education. These opportunities have enabled me to apply my scientific knowledge in both research and teaching, further developing my analytical, organisational, and communication skills. My educational journey has equipped me with a strong scientific foundation, a commitment to continuous learning, and a passion for making complex scientific concepts accessible and engaging for students.

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.
