Experienced IGCSE Maths Tutors

Hi! I'm Keerthana, a 3rd year aerospace engineering student at the University of Nottingham. I have been formally tutoring for the past year and a half, and in this time I have had a rewarding journey of teaching and connecting with students from different backgrounds all brought together by the exams they're taking. Meanwhile, my informal experience of tutoring stems from teaching my cousins, which was a rewarding journey that allowed me to sharpen my patience and creativity. Along the way, I've discovered that the ability to tailor explanations to students is just as important as the knowledge itself. When I was doing my (I)GCSE and IB, I found questions easier to solve when I understood my concepts c . Even the littlest missing pieces of knowledge made a huge difference to me. So, as a tutor, my first goal would be ensure that my students have a strong understanding of the topic. To strengthen their knowledge, I would also work through many exam questions with them, as they are the key to being confident during the actual exam. As an aerospace engineering major, I've had to build a strong base in my Maths, Physics, and Chemistry, which is why those are the subjects I mainly specialise in. Currently, I'm happy to tutor students preparing for their GCSEs in these subjects, and Chemistry and Physics in A level and IB. Aside from my academics, I am an artist with a passion for capturing stunning landscapes in my paintings. It's a past-time that's given me time to relax and I enjoy making custom paintings for my loved ones! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me! I look forward to working with you and your child :)

Hello! I'm Kufre, currently a medical student at King's College London, with a strong passion for the sciences and a deep commitment to education. My academic journey is highlighted by my stellar grades: 11 A* at GCSE and 4 A*grades at A-level in Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. These achievements not only reflect my grasp of these subjects but also my dedication, perseverance, and the effective study skills I've developed over the years. Alongside my studies, I have gained over three years of experience as a tutor. I've had the privilege of supporting students from diverse backgrounds, ranging from those preparing for their 11+ exams to A-level pupils aiming for academic excellence. My versatile teaching methods are customised to fit each student's unique learning style, ensuring their comfort, engagement, and ultimately, their success. Beyond general tutoring, I am proficient in guiding students through the university entrance process, including the BMAT, UCAT, and interview preparation. Drawing from my personal experiences, I provide insightful guidance to help students navigate these demanding steps with confidence and ease. Outside of academia, I am an enthusiast of calisthenics, a discipline that has fortified my resilience, determination, and goal-setting abilities. I firmly believe that these traits are equally valuable in a learning environment, and I incorporate them into my tutoring approach. This method helps students understand that learning, like calisthenics, is a process that involves setting and working progressively towards achievable goals. As a tutor, my mission is to not only facilitate academic improvement but also to inspire a genuine love for learning in my students. I strive to create an environment where students feel empowered, motivated, and excited to reach their full potential. I am looking forward to partnering with you and your child on their academic journey!

From a young age, I have always been fascinated with numbers and mathematics in general. I participated in the UKMT Maths Challenges from Year 7 to Year 13, where I was awarded with a Bronze, Silver or Gold certificate. I was also ranked as the ‘Best In the Year’ for two consecutive years, and ‘Best In the School’ in Year 10. I was awarded a grade 9 in GCSE Mathematics. In Year 11, I was also awarded a certificate in a Level 3 Algebra with 91%. At the end of Year 13, I achieved A*s in Mathematics, Further Mathematics, and Computer Science and an A in Physics. I was awarded my school’s ‘Governors Leaving Award/A P Lawrence Memorial Prize for Mathematics’ and the ‘Prize for Computing Studies’. I have taught students at 11+ level and GCSE Level and I’ve also helped students who were struggling with different aspects of Mathematics.

I have been a Private Tutor for the last 7 years tutoring students that have been finding their GCSE and A-Level curriculum difficult. Overall, I have taught more than 100 students over the last 7 years and helped them achieve their desired grades and university. If you have the passion and desire to do well in your studies, I will help you achieve it regardless of your current grades. I have an Honours Degree from Imperial College London for BEng Joint Maths and Computer Science. I have also achieved A*A*A*A in my A-Level for Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Computer Science as well as 8A*s, 3As and 1B in my GCSEs. Lesson Structure: My online lessons mainly happen through Microsoft OneNote. Every OneNote notebook I have for a student keeps track of three following parts: - a curriculum checklist to make sure our lessons are kept on track, - lesson notes to keep track of everything we worked on together, and - mini-mock exams to help students get used to exam situations. I keep my lesson from 1 to 2 hours where we use the first 30 mins to cover anything you need help with immediately. For the rest of the lesson, we work on topics that you have found challenging/difficult, making sure we are on top of everything covered in school. If we have managed to cover all of those topics, we move on to topics that will be covered in school. This will help give the student a head start and stay ahead of your class which will help make school lessons easier. Furthermore, I like to keep students on track with their independent studying outside of our lessons by giving mini-mock exams approximately every 2 months (given we do lessons twice a week). These mini-mock exams help students get acclimatised to exam situations and provide motivation for students to do independent studying outside school and our private lessons. Each mini-mock contains exam-style questions with a couple of difficult/tricky questions to help students prepare for the worst-case scenario when it comes to the actual exam they will be sitting. If needed, I provide proper mock exams to help recreate an exam situation to help students gauge their shortcomings and help them improve themselves.

Hello! I’m Koby and am a 3rd year medical student at the University of Cambridge. With over 5 years of tutoring experience, I focus on a holistic, engaging and student-centric approach to teaching, whilst sharing my passion and love for learning! Understanding a topic is one thing but understanding what the examiners are looking for can sometimes be a whole other issue. Using my experience, I tailor my lessons to the student’s needs to help them achieve both, whilst utilising my extensive bank of exam questions to guide the student with worked examples and build their confidence. I also share effective learning strategies and tips that make learning enjoyable and easier. This has helped many of my students achieve top grades and personally helped me achieve 10A*’s at (I)GCSE and 4A*’s at A-Level/Pre-U in Maths, Further Maths, Chemistry and Biology. Hence, I specialise in teaching these subjects for students of all levels and ages. As well as cracking the code to exam technique, I am happy to mentor students applying for Medicine or Oxbridge. I am confident I can make a difference having excelled in the UCAT and BMAT admissions exams as well as acing interviews in an empathetic and charismatic manner in order to receive medical school offers from Cambridge, Imperial, Keele and Cardiff. In my free time, I am an avid chess player (9x British Chess Champion who has represented England in the World Youth Championships) and sports and music enthusiast. I hope to instil that same ambition and belief in my students that they too can excel in their academics whilst doing what they enjoy! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me and I look forward to working together with you and your student to bring out their full potential – see you on the other side! :)

Hello! My name is Gavindu and I'm currently doing an Integrated Masters in Computer Science at the University of York. I have been tutoring for 2.5 years in Maths and Computer Science, as well as being a programming tutor for CodeNinjas. I have completed formal training in tutoring and have a lot of experience tutoring children with special needs. My teaching style consists more of building the child's interest in the subject, rather than teaching the content for the sake of it, since interest is what helps understanding and inspires further learning. With that, my lessons will be fun and engaging while being fully informative, as the lessons will be based fully on the exam specification. As for my results, I have achieved 9's in Maths, Computer Science, Music and all sciences. I also achieved an A* in Computer Science at A level and a few marks off an A* in maths. I have also completed grade 8 and 7 in piano and guitar, winning a formal competition for piano in the process. I am happy to do trial services to see if I'm the right fit for your child, and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have! Thanks for reading, Gavindu

Hi I’m Yassin, I am a First Year Medical Student at UCL (University College London). I received all 4 of my interviews and all 4 of my offers back from UCL, Edinburgh, Sheffield and Birmingham medical schools. I achieved 3220 Band 1 in my UCAT and 5A*s in my A-levels: Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics and EPQ (on a medical topic). I achieved 99% in my Maths A-level, 94% in Biology, 92% in Chemistry, 92% in EPQ and 86% in Physics. I also achieved Grade 9s in all 10 of my GCSEs. I’ve got over 200hrs experience in tutoring over a space of 2 years. I love playing the piano, playing tennis, going to the gym and learning languages. I’ve achieved a Grade 8 in Piano, and I can speak English and Arabic fluently; and I speak near-fluent Spanish (C1 level). My friends would describe me as a talkative person but one who is dedicated when it’s time to focus on school work. I’m very sociable and make friends quite easily which I think makes interacting with my students a much more pleasant experience for them.
