Hi, I’m Henry - a 3rd year Mechanical Engineering student studying at Imperial. I offer tutoring services for A level, GCSE and KS3 Maths and Physics along with university application guidance. I have a strong background in Maths and Physics, with A*A at A-Level, and I’m currently applying these subjects in applied engineering. Therefore, I understand the fundamentals taught at school and know how to explain them clearly, as well as show how they connect to real-world applications. As someone with experience in doing multiple stressful exams throughout my time at school and university, I understand that everyone learns differently and that finding the right approach is key to truly understanding a topic. I aim to adapt my teaching style to suit each student’s needs and help build both confidence and clarity. Please feel free to book your free trial with me to help build confidence, improve understanding, and achieve your academic goals. I went to Worthing High School and did my GCSEs including a 9-8 in combined science and an 8 in Maths. I then went to BHASVIC and achieved an A*AAA in Maths, Physics, Chemistry and AS Further Maths. I have now currently finished my second year at Imperial as a Mechanical Engineering student and am predicted a 2:1.

Hello! My name is Shruti and I have always been fascinated by technology and how it shapes the world we live in. I have a strong passion for mathematics and science. I enjoy the challenges of solving complex problems and finding different solutions, which strengthen analytical thinking as well as problem-solving skills. I believe this is very important because it helps us to understand problems better and enables us to break them down into smaller, more manageable parts, which is also very crucial to learn. This also allows us to evaluate options logically instead of just guessing. Alongside this, I love listening to music. Listening to different genres helps me to relax and stay motivated; it also enhances my focus, concentration and memory. For me, music also works by blocking out distractions and creating a very steady rhythm for the brain to follow, which further increases my level of concentration. I also enjoy learning different languages because I believe this helps with connecting to different people from diverse backgrounds. Cognitively, learning a new language strengthens memory, problem-solving skills, as well as concentration. Altogether, these skills helped me to build confidence and independence. Therefore, I became better at explaining new ideas clearly and in an easily understandable way. I also became better at learning new things and finding solutions quickly to different problems. This is extremely essential in fields like engineering and tutoring! Throughout my academic years, I have attended Queen Mary's High School, and after that, I attended Queen Mary's Grammar School for sixth form. Currently, I am a first year Computer Engineering Student at the University of Birmingham.During my school years and university so far, I have completed assignments, projects which have helped me to develop my analytical thinking skills and experience explaining difficult concepts easily. Furthermore, I have also done mentoring before in school, where I was teaching maths to a GCSE student, and this also enabled my skills to improve and gave me more experience of teaching.

Our lessons are entirely interactive and built around how you learn best. Utilising a laptop paired with an iPad and stylus, I turn our sessions into a live digital whiteboard. Together, we can sketch out organic reaction mechanisms, solve complex chemical calculations side-by-side, and directly annotate past exam papers in real time. This hands-on approach allows us to dissect actual exam formatting, decode tricky question wording, and build the specific exam techniques needed to maximise your marks. With professional experience in educational content editing and academic leadership, I provide a highly structured, resource-packed, and efficient tutoring experience.

Hello, I’m Christina, an experienced English tutor specialising in the UK curriculum, GCSE English, international school support, and exam preparation for learners from diverse educational backgrounds. I help students strengthen their reading, writing, speaking, grammar, vocabulary, literature analysis, academic English, and exam technique. I work with learners across different age groups and ability levels, from students who need extra support with core literacy and school English to those preparing for Key Stage assessments, GCSE English Language, GCSE English Literature, SAT Reading and Writing, IELTS, TOEFL, and TOEIC. Alongside my UK curriculum experience, I also have experience with the American and Australian curricula, as well as extensive work with EAL and ESL students. I understand the challenges students can face when learning in English, especially when they are adapting to a new curriculum, preparing for high-stakes exams, or trying to express complex ideas with accuracy and confidence. My lessons are structured, supportive, and practical. Whether we are analysing a poem, planning an essay, developing creative writing, improving comprehension, practising speaking fluency, or reviewing exam-style questions, I break each task into clear steps. I model strong answers, teach effective strategies, and give targeted feedback so students know exactly what they are doing well and what to improve next. My teaching style is calm, encouraging, and results-focused. I believe students make the best progress when they feel understood, challenged, and guided with clarity. In my lessons, mistakes are treated as useful learning clues, not failures. Parents can expect purposeful lessons, clear communication, and a personalised approach designed to improve school performance, exam readiness, and long-term confidence in English. I help students become more confident, accurate, and independent in English, whether they are improving school performance, preparing for GCSEs, working towards AS or A Level success, or developing stronger reading, writing, speaking, and analytical skills. My lessons are structured, encouraging, and focused on clear progress, so students understand exactly what they are learning, why it matters, and how to improve. I have over 20 years of experience in education, English teaching, curriculum development, assessment, mentoring, and academic support. I have worked with students from Key Stage 2 to Key Stage 5, supporting learners at different ability levels, from those who need help with core literacy and confidence to those aiming for higher grades in GCSE, AS Level, and A Level English. My main areas of tutoring include English Language, English Literature, reading comprehension, essay writing, creative writing, grammar, vocabulary, spelling, punctuation, literary analysis, academic writing, speaking skills, and exam preparation. I support students preparing for Key Stage assessments, GCSE English Language, GCSE English Literature, AS Level English, A Level English, AQA and Edexcel-style examinations, school assessments, mock exams, resits, and general English improvement. My academic background includes a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and History from the University of Natal, a Cambridge CELTA, and a PGCE from Canterbury Christ Church University. I also hold a Post-Graduate Certificate in Marketing and Management, which strengthened my communication, organisation, and leadership skills. Alongside this, I have completed professional training in assessment practice, curriculum development, IELTS teaching, dyslexia and foreign language teaching, child protection, quality assurance, and educational technology. My lessons are designed around each student’s needs. I usually begin by identifying strengths, gaps, confidence levels, and school or exam goals. From there, I plan focused lessons that build skills step by step. A typical session may include analysing an extract, planning a GCSE-style response, improving paragraph structure, practising language analysis, reviewing spelling and grammar accuracy, developing creative writing, or working through exam-style questions with clear feedback. For AS and A Level students, I also support more advanced skills such as close textual analysis, critical interpretation, comparative writing, essay argument development, contextual understanding, coursework planning, academic style, and independent study habits. I help students move beyond simply understanding a text towards building thoughtful, well-supported arguments that meet higher-level assessment criteria. I have particular experience helping students who struggle with essay structure, comprehension, inference, grammar accuracy, literary analysis, academic vocabulary, and exam technique. I also support students who need help building confidence, including EAL and ESL learners, students adapting to the UK curriculum, and learners with additional needs such as dyslexia or ADHD. In addition to tutoring and classroom teaching, I have held leadership roles including English Lead Teacher, Pillar Teacher Leader for Academics, Innovation Coordinator, and Head of English Department. These roles have given me a strong understanding of curriculum expectations, assessment criteria, and the practical steps students need to take to improve their grades. Before specialising fully in education, I worked in international communications and team leadership with Ogilvy & Mather and Young & Rubicam. This background strengthened the clarity, creativity, organisation, and results-focused approach I bring to my teaching. My teaching style is calm, supportive, and practical. I break challenging tasks into manageable steps, model strong answers, teach students how to approach questions, and give targeted feedback so they know exactly what to improve next. I believe mistakes are useful learning clues, not failures, and I aim to create a learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, trying new approaches, and improving steadily. Students can expect purposeful lessons, clear explanations, personalised support, and practical strategies they can use in school and exams. My aim is to help every learner improve their English skills, grow in confidence, and feel better prepared for GCSEs, AS Levels, A Levels, assessments, and future academic success.

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.
