My name is Samadi Narasingha, and I am a third-year Law with Politics (LLB) student at the University of Manchester. I am currently achieving a consistent first-class average across my degree, including 80 in Criminal Law, the highest mark in a cohort of around 300 students, and 72 in both Contract and Tort Law. Studying Law with Politics has strengthened my analytical writing, argumentation, and understanding of political systems. At A level, I achieved the highest mark in Politics in my cohort and the fourth highest mark in History. I achieved 80 percent in A level Politics Paper 2 and 38 out of 40 in my A level History coursework. I offer Edexcel A level Politics tuition in both UK and US Politics, with support tailored to content knowledge, essay structure, evaluation, model answers, and exam technique. I have over three years of formal tutoring experience, including two years with Edumentors, alongside work with other agencies and private students. I have taught students online and in person from primary level to A level. This experience has helped me adapt lessons to different abilities, learning styles and individual goals. I have supported students to make substantial academic progress. For example, one AQA GCSE English Language and Literature student improved from grades 2 and 3 to grades 8 and 8, finishing only four marks away from a grade 9. I also helped an A-level Politics student progress from a D to an A within a few months through focused content teaching, regular essay practice, detailed feedback and exam technique. My approach is structured, encouraging and student-centred. Lessons use clear explanations, retrieval practice, tailored resources, essay planning, timed questions, model answer analysis and constructive marking. The aim is to build lasting understanding, confidence and the independent skills needed to perform strongly in exams.

Hi, I’m Ankita – a passionate Maths & Physics tutor, here to make these “boring” subjects come alive! I’ve just graduated with a degree in Design Engineering from Imperial College London, one of the UK’s top universities for science, technology, and innovation. During my time there, I also served as Vice President of the Design Engineering Society, leading events, mentoring students, and driving academic and creative initiatives. Since my first year at university, I’ve delivered over 214 private tutoring sessions, working with students of all abilities across GCSE and A-Level Maths and Physics. I’ve also taught multiple times at university level, including running sessions for PhD students and research fellows on effective presentation and storytelling techniques. 📚 Academic Achievements: AAAA at A-Level – Maths, Physics, Design Technology, Further Maths 12 GCSEs – including 11 Grade 9s and 1 Grade 7 Graduated from Imperial College London with a degree in Design Engineering 🧠 My Teaching Philosophy: At school, Maths and Physics are often seen as dry or intimidating – textbooks, lectures, and a focus on right or wrong answers. But these subjects are full of creativity and logic. I want to show students how fascinating and empowering these subjects can be when taught with energy, context, and purpose. In our lessons: I start by getting to know the student, their strengths, confidence levels, and how they learn best. If a topic is unclear, we build up from core concepts to exam-level questions with increasing challenge. I tailor every session to the individual student – whether they need support with understanding, revision techniques, or pushing for the top grades. Most importantly, I don’t just want students to pass their exams – I want them to grow into strong, independent thinkers, and to gain real confidence in their mathematical and scientific abilities. 🌟 Why Learn With Me? 200+ hours of tutoring experience University-level teaching experience Recently graduated – I understand the current education system well Enthusiastic, encouraging, and relatable Proven academic success and mentoring experience Outside tutoring, I love building real-world engineering projects, mentoring students, and exploring how technology and education can come together to make learning more engaging. If you’re looking for a tutor who really cares about student growth, confidence, and long-term success, I’d love to help. Whether your child is struggling or striving for top grades – I’ll be with them every step of the way. Message me to book a session or ask any questions!

I currently tutor a diverse range of STEM students, including both homeschooled and non-homeschooled learners, from across the UK and internationally. My students span from KS3 (Year 7) to A-levels, and I have experience teaching all UK exam boards, including CIE, AQA, and OCR.

I create an inclusive environment where all students feel supported and are encouraged to succeed, regardless of their personal challenges or educational background. As a Computer Science student at the University of Manchester (ranked in the global top 40 universities), with A* grades in A-level Maths and Physics, I bring strong academic knowledge and a passion for STEM education.

I've been tutoring for over two years, working with students across Maths, English Language & Literature, French, Spanish and Geography. I've taught learners at different levels and stages, and I tailor my approach depending on what each subject and each student actually needs. Every student I've worked with has improved by at least one grade within 8 weeks. That includes taking students from failing GCSE Maths to passing, giving them a level of confidence in the subject they didn't have before. With languages, I've helped students who were nervous and too scared to speak go from staying silent in lessons to properly holding a conversation, simply by making mistakes feel like a normal part of learning rather than something to be afraid of. My sessions are bespoke to you rather than built around a fixed syllabus, and they adapt as you progress, so we're never working from a plan that's stopped being useful. I lean heavily on real world examples to make each subject click, because in my experience most students don't lack ability, they lack a reason to care about the material in front of them. Once that reason is there, progress tends to follow quickly. I'm trilingual, with French and Spanish to C1 level and Catalan to B2, alongside a TEFL qualification, passed with Merit. That background means I understand language learning both as a student and as a teacher. Let's talk about where you're at and what you're aiming for. I'll build the sessions around your goals and make sure we get there!

Need a Tutor to Help Your Child Succeed?

Preparing for National 4 & 5 exams can be tricky, a little push takes one straight to the top. Our committed teachers at Edumentors give directions and support. We link students with top tutors from leading UK universities for a worthwhile learning experience that caters to student needs.

Difference Between National 4 and National 5

National 4 and National 5 qualifications serve as important milestones in a student's educational journey, but they differ in several key aspects. National 4 is designed to be more accessible, with no formal examinations, instead, students are assessed through coursework and unit assessments. This qualification is ideal for students who benefit from continuous assessment rather than high-stakes exams.

On the other hand, National 5 includes both coursework and final examinations, providing a more rigorous assessment of a student's knowledge and skills. Achieving a National 5 qualification can open doors to further education, such as Higher and Advanced Higher courses, and is often required for entry into many college and university programmes. While National 4 helps build foundational understanding, National 5 prepares students for more advanced study and offers a greater challenge.

What Are National 4 & 5 Qualifications?

National 4 & 5 qualifications are part of the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF), crucial for students aged 14-16. These qualifications lay the foundation for further education and career opportunities.

Why Are National 4 & 5 Important?

National 4 & 5 qualifications are essential as they:

  • Provide a stepping stone to Higher and Advanced Higher courses.
  • Enhance employability by developing critical skills.
  • Offer a broad understanding of various subjects, preparing students for future academic challenges.
