About me: Hi, my name is Hasan – I’m a Medical Student at The University of Leeds, with over 1500 hours tutoring KS3 and GCSE Sciences as well as A level Biology and Chemistry. Having worked with numerous students from start to end of their studies, I have an in depth understanding of what is required of students in preparation for their examinations. On average, my students have shown a 2-3 grade improvement from their previous level. My Style: Tailoring explanations to the specific needs of students and creating an interactive environment is an important part of my lessons. Key concepts (especially in Chemistry and Physics) require things to be explained step by step – I explain these concepts with the use of my own written Powerpoints along with the use of an online whiteboard to draw and describe things easily. Some of my reviews: 'Susan' - Parent (A-Level Biology) – “Hasan has been an all-round excellent tutor – he has worked closely with Tom over the past 2 years and his grades have improved from 6s in the sciences to 8s and 9s” 'Haris' - Parent (GCSE Chemistry and Physics) – “Ahmad got his GCSE grades today and he did brilliantly – can’t thank you enough” 'Mary' Parent (A-Level Chemistry) - “Thank you for your time and patience, you did an amazing job tutoring Elliot!” 'Muslih' - Parent (GCSE Sciences) - “Rania used to struggle a lot with the certain topics in chemistry but since her lessons with Hasan started she has started to find these concepts much easier to understand” Saqib - Parent (GCSE Sciences) - “Hasan has been great tutor and helped Hamza a lot in preparation for his Science GCSE exams – good job” Sara’s Mother (Year 9 Sciences and Maths)– “My daughter was so unhappy with her school teachers but Hasan was very thorough and brought back some fun to lessons as well” Subjects and Levels: Tutoring GCSE Biology, Chemistry and Physics and A-Level Biology and Chemistry Student Age Group: - Secondary School - GCSE - A-Level Education: GCSE: - Maths - A* - English - A - Physics - A* - Chemistry - A* - Biology - A* - Business - A* - Religious Education - A* - Statistics - A - History - A* - Geography - A* - Humanities - A* - Business - A* A-Levels: - Biology - A* - Chemistry - A* - Business - A*

Usually keeping an 11 year old boy focused in an online lesson is difficult. George/ Jorge has managed to do so, kept him engaged and make the lesson interesting and fun. My son has started after 7 lessons to make sentences but most importantly to looking forward to his next lesson

By subjects
What is the IGCSE?
The IGCSE (which stands for the International General Certificate of Secondary Education) is taken by students aged 14-16 (Year 10 and 11) to prepare them for further pre-university level study, such as A-levels.
It offers the same level of education as a traditional GCSE but does not have a UK-centric curriculum. For example, Shakespeare is a compulsory part of GCSE English Literature but not the IGCSE.
Children in state schools usually take GCSEs whilst those in private and international schools are more likely to take IGCSEs. Universities do not distinguish between the two when it comes to entry requirements. The exams are assessed externally.
What is the focus of the IGCSE?
The IGCSE focuses on developing understanding, skill, and knowledge in the following areas:
Subject content
The application of knowledge and understanding to new as well as familiar situations
Intellectual enquiry
Flexibility and responsiveness to change
Working and communicating in English
Influencing outcomes
Cultural awareness
What subjects are studied?
IGCSEs are available in a broad range of subjects but curriculums vary considerably depending on the school.
Students typically take seven to nine subjects, which must include the core subjects of English, mathematics and science (biology, chemistry, physics).
Optional subjects include humanities (history, geography), modern languages, the creative arts (art, music), STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and sports.
Preparing for the IGCSEs
Historically, the GCSE had a greater amount of coursework in the syllabus compared to the IGCSE. This has changed in recent years and both qualifications are based mainly on the end-of-course exams.
The exams test theoretical knowledge, practical skills, problem-solving abilities and critical thinking skills – which are essential for further education as well as future careers.
Revision is key to retaining information and reinforcing understanding and should be done regularly rather than cramming all the content at the last minute.
Practicing past papers and taking mock exams will allow you to become familiar with the exam structure, improve your time management skills and discover any areas of weakness.
How can a tutor help with preparing for the IGCSEs?
A tutor can help at any stage of the process, whether it is over the two years of study or in the run-up to the exams.
GoStudent IGCSE tutors have experience in the specific subjects covered in the curriculum as well as a proven track record of success. They offer personalised lessons that can target problematic areas and can help create realistic and achievable study schedules that balance your time across the different subjects.
ICGSE tutors can also teach you effective study techniques. These will help you not only with the exams but in your future academic career.
If you are struggling with either the coursework or exam preparation, don’t delay seeking help. Feeling prepared and confident for your exams allows you to have a clear and focused mind - and achieve to your full potential.
Is private iGCSE tuition affordable?
Your child can get iGCSE tuition for as low as £21.99 per session. The price of each private tuition session depends on how regularly and for how long your child takes tuition with us. Book a free trial session with us and you can find out how affordable private tuition with GoStudent can be for you.
How many other levels does GoStudent offer other than iGCSE tuition?
As well as private iGCSE tuition, GoStudent can help your child with 11 other levels. Pick from many subjects including Spanish, Economics, French. And with GoStudent your child isn't tied into one level. If they are taking iGCSE tuition but then need support with a different level, we can help them get that support with a tutor specialised in that level.
How can your child benefit from iGCSE tuition?
The main reason that parents often start to look for a iGCSE tutor is to improve their child’s academic performance. It’s needless to say that tutoring will prepare your child for important exams and tests and address specific problem areas that they might have in a particular subject. Your child’s grades and understanding of the subject will improve when working with a tutor but there are also other benefits you might consider when deciding whether to opt for private iGCSE tutoring. Tutoring encourages self-directed learning. This means that your child will learn to take the initiative in their schoolwork, with the result that they will feel less overwhelmed or frustrated with school and more in control of their own learning. They will also learn study skills that will help them in life when it comes to university and beyond. Whether it’s learning to overcome obstacles in their studies, losing the fear of asking questions or even working on their social skills. Sign up for a free trial lesson to discover the benefits of tutoring for yourself.
Can my child take private iGCSE tuition online?
With GoStudent your child can get private tuition online from one of our iGCSE tutors. Online tuition is a great option for you and your child, meaning you don't have to take your child to a class or cover the cost of a tutor to come to your home. Why not see how private tuition can work for you and your child by booking a free trial lesson.
