Hi I'm Zack. I am a first-year student of Mathematics at Newcastle University, with a profound passion for the subject and a strong belief that with the right teaching, anyone can enjoy and achieve in it. My exam scores include 6 grade 9s at GCSE (with two of those being Maths and Physics) and AAB at A-Level. Last academic year I tutored two Year 11 students in GCSE Maths, with both achieving the desired grade 4 in their foundation exams. As a fellow student I understand the struggle of learning new things, and can relate to the worry that surrounds exams and how exactly to tackle them. I hope to not only teach my students their specific subject, but also transferrable academic skills that will help them prosper across all classes they are currently taking.

I am a First Year Biomedical Science Undergraduate with a strong passion for science. Since as long as I can remember I have enjoyed biology the most but I also have had a keen interest in teaching. Through tutoring other students, family and friends I have gained sufficient experience. I strongly believe that my teaching can get you through to your the best grades. I strive to only bring out the best in you. I can assure that not only will you have quality knowledge to ace your papers but also confidence and mental courage through my lessons. There are a variety of teaching methods and learning approaches that I can take to teach content so that students can understand, one of my biggest strengths is tailoring the learning to you.

Hiya, I’m a first year medical student at the University of Manchester. Having personally overcome academic struggles while at school, I really value personalised support through tutoring and understand the importance of finding each students’ style of learning. I have experience tutoring and mentoring students and really enjoy being able to break down difficult concepts into more digestible ways, and find it really rewarding to see students grow in confidence and ability. I look forward to being able to help students and give them the support they need to achieve their academic goals, while also ensuring they remain confident and assured about their abilities.

Hi, my name is Max! I’m currently a first-year student at the University of Warwick studying History and Politics. I am looking to tutor students at both A-Level and GCSE (History) levels and help them get the best possible grade. Before university, I took a year to travel the world, giving me valuable life experience, meaning I am mature, reliable, and patient, and will bring these skills alongside my subject knowledge and a positive energy to help as a tutor. I have success in these subjects, achieving an A* in History and an A in Politics at A-Level, as well as seven Grade 9’s at GCSE, including in History. I studied GCSE History (Edexcel), taking the Cold War, Weimar & Nazi Germany, and Elizabethan England topics. At A-Level History (OCR) I took the topics of Russia 1894-1941, Colonialism to Independence (British Empire), and Alfred & the Making of England (Anglo-Saxons). I also did a personal study essay on the factors motivating the USA in the Vietnam War and an Extended Project Qualification on the Cuban Revolution, achieving an A*. I did A-Level Politics (Edexcel) and can help students prepare for either UK politics, US politics, or ideologies (including Feminism). I can help students revise and prepare for exams on any of these topics, and have a keen interest in them myself. I am a strong believer that for humanities subjects the best way to revise and prepare for exams is to plan essay questions, and I can help students in the best way to do this (ensuring that students incorporate what the examiner is looking for). I am also happy to help students recap their knowledge on particular parts of the course and ensure understanding of the fundamental concepts, ideas, definitions, and examples. I also have some direct experience as a tutor, as I acted as a mentor for Numeracy and Literacy for students between Years 7-9, helping young students progress in Maths and English. As an undergraduate student, my interests lie largely in modern history, looking at revolutions, colonialism (and decolonisation), and how the modern world was made (ranging from travel and epidemics, to slavery and the environment). I am also studying the history of the Middle East, looking at oil in Iran and Arabia, the Palestine conflict in Israel, and the broader issue of Islamic militarism. In Politics, I am looking at core political concepts and ideas, ideologies, and theories of international relations and global governance. I can bring my knowledge from this and my experience as a GCSE/A-Level student to help students prepare for their exams or generally improve their foundation in History and/or Politics. I look forward to meeting and teaching you!

Hi! My name is Ihab and I am a LSE student studying History and Politics and currently averaging a high 2.1. I have studied a range of History topics from the Ottoman Empire, the Tudors and the Qing Empire which I enjoy. My approach to tutoring is like a conversation in which I prefer to question and prompt my student so they can grow their knowledge within my lessons. This would be through teaching them concepts and information then applying them to past paper questions, as well as my own that I have created. I can adjust the style of my lessons to my students preference in which I aim to find gaps in knowledge and then underlying issues that prevent them from fulfilling their full potential. I am an experienced tutor, as I have been tutoring for nearly 3 years with 2 of them face to face lessons in students houses in which I taught kids from KS1-KS4. For the past year I have been tutoring students on online platforms from GCSE, AS and A-Level content which have seen my students achieve A' and A* in their mocks. I have also worked with students on summer schools as a mentor as I have been able to develop skills that tailor to students needs which has helped them develop their understanding in subjects as well as finding their passion in life. I studied History, Economics and Government and Politics at A-level receiving A*A*A with the A being in History. I can tutor in a range of exam boards as well as qualifications from GCSE, A-level, IGCSE in which I have experience in all 3 which means I can provide guidance and lessons that can push students grades up as well as offering effective exam techniques.

Hi, I’m Mehnaz! Having achieved A*AA in my A-Levels, an A* in my EPQ, and all 8s and 9s in my GCSEs, I’m now a second-year Law student at the University of Leeds. With 3 years of formal tutoring experience, I take a dynamic approach to teaching, catering to each student and their needs. I maintain an engaging, thoughtful approach to ensure the student is left feeling confident in their learning. As well as focusing on understanding the content, I can also hone in on exam and revision techniques to ensure the student is fully equipped with all the skills to succeed in their subject. These skills have not only helped my students, but personally helped me achieve top grades in my GCSEs and A-Levels: English Literature, History, Theatre Studies and an EPQ. I have a deep passion for learning and I hope to encourage this in my students! If you have any questions please get in touch. I look forward to working with you!

Hi, I'm Emily and I study English at the University of St Andrews. I'm passionate about education and first discovered my love for teaching when I began tutoring Year 11 students for their IGCSE English exams in Sixth Form. It was so rewarding to watch their confidence grow and grades improve, and I would love to help your child to do the same. As someone who studies English Literature at university and also studied history and Latin at A-Level, I have lots of experience with textual analysis and essay writing. In tutoring sessions, I can provide feedback on exam-style pieces of writing, guidance on the Point Evidence Analysis (PEA) structure, as well as discussions on key themes and ideas in the course materials. I also have a lot of experience of studying languages, having studied Spanish at IGCSE, Latin at GCSE and A-Level and French at IGCSE, Higher Level IB and during my first year of university. I can help with vocab tests, going through grammatical structures, providing feedback on written pieces, translation practice and speaking practice. I understand that every student has different needs and will cater my sessions to best suit their individual objectives. I also appreciate how stressful exams can be and am happy to offer support and advice on how to navigate the assessment period.

Hi! My name is Lukas, I am 23 years old and have recently graduated from a master's in Renaissance literature at St. Hilda's College, Oxford University, previously studying at St. Catherine's in Oxford for my undergraduate English Literature degree. I have achieved a high merit in my MA and a high 2.1 in my undergraduate degree. I began tutoring to supplement my income during my studies. I am very passionate about teaching literature, having worked both online and in-person with my students, and I hope to complete a PHD in the coming years to allow me to teach literature as a career. I spent the year after graduation working as a learning support assistant in a school, which has broadened my teaching abilities to suit a variety of educational needs outside of one-to-one tutoring. I am also passionate about mentoring students for application to university, especially Oxford and Cambridge, in order to encourage under-represented students from similar backgrounds to my own. My hobbies outside of literature include sport, music and film, and I am always keen to step outside my comfort zone in both my athletic and aesthetic hobbies.
