Kayode E.

New tutor

Hi, I’m Kayode Ewumi, an English tutor with a passion for helping students of all ages find joy in literature and language. From Year 6 to Year 13, I work with students to develop their reading, writing, and critical thinking skills, aiming to make English not just something they have to learn, but something they can truly enjoy and excel in. For me, teaching English is about more than just understanding grammar or memorizing quotes; it’s about helping students connect with the texts they read and empowering them to express their ideas clearly and confidently. Whether it’s analyzing a classic novel or improving essay-writing skills, I take pride in breaking down complex ideas into bite-sized, understandable pieces that students can relate to. I particularly enjoy working with new students because each one brings a fresh perspective and new challenge. I love discovering their strengths and helping them tackle areas that need improvement, especially when it comes to building confidence in their writing and comprehension. I believe every student has the ability to improve and succeed with the right guidance and support. It’s incredibly rewarding to see students grow and take ownership of their learning. I’m excited to help each of my students find their voice in English, and I look forward to seeing them not only succeed in their exams but also develop a lifelong love for reading and writing. I began my academic journey at St. Thomas the Apostle School, where I built a solid foundation across a range of subjects, particularly in the humanities. It was here that my interest in English and the arts first sparked. After completing my secondary education, I attended City and Islington College for my A-Levels, where I focused on subjects like English Literature and Language. The college environment provided a more focused, mature setting for my studies, and I was challenged to delve deeper into texts and engage in more analytical discussions. This experience solidified my commitment to pursuing a career that combined both my love for English and the performing arts. I then went on to study Theatre and English at Coventry University, a decision that allowed me to merge my two main academic interests. The university environment was intellectually stimulating, and I had the opportunity to explore both the literary world of English and the expressive, creative world of theatre. Throughout my degree, I honed my writing, critical analysis, and performance skills, which culminated in me graduating with First-Class Honours.

Rebecca C.

New tutor

My name is Rebecca and I am from South Wales, United Kingdom. I have experienced living in different places around the UK and I lived in London for several years, which was an amazing experience to meet people from international countries and learn many things about their culture and interests too. I enjoy cooking at home, as formally I have trained on the job as a professional chef, mainly in seafood/fish restaurants and Japanese cuisine. Also, I like going for a walk down the coastline and taking in the scenic views, photography and sometimes video gaming when the time arises. For over a year, I have been teaching English online as a second language to Taiwanese and Chinese students, both juniors and adults. Which became an interest whilst I was teaching sushi classes in London. I decided to advance onto teaching specifically English and conversational topics chosen by students, to further improve their overall English language. From education I gained a TEFL level 5 teaching qualification and a BSc (Hons) in Food and Consumer Management from Birmingham University. Which focused on live industry projects within the FMCG sector, nutrition and the business elements within the food industry. I enjoy cooking at home, particularly Japanese cuisine and seafood dishes that I learnt previously as a professional chef.

Hamid H.

New tutor

Hello, my name is Hamid Hanif and I’m currently a final year medical student with a real passion for learning and teaching. I specialise in tutoring GCSE Mathematics and Sciences – subjects I’ve always enjoyed and excelled in myself. Throughout school and university, I’ve loved helping classmates and younger students understand difficult concepts. Over the past few years I’ve supported learners preparing for GCSE exams and other assessments, focusing on building their confidence as well as their knowledge. Through my ambassador roles at university I’ve developed strong communication skills and the ability to explain complex ideas clearly and simply. What I find most rewarding about tutoring is seeing that “lightbulb moment” when a student realises they can do something they once found impossible. My approach is patient, supportive and tailored: I start by assessing a student’s current understanding, break topics down into manageable steps, and use real-life examples and interactive practice to keep lessons engaging. I’m also experienced at adapting my style to different learning needs, including students with dyslexia, ADHD or exam anxiety. Outside teaching, I’m a keen football player and have a strong interest in sports medicine and injury rehabilitation. I also enjoy reading, exploring new topics in science, and finding creative ways to make learning fun. I’m really excited to help students achieve their goals and to make maths and science enjoyable, approachable and empowering. I began my education at St Bede’s Secondary School, where I completed my GCSEs with strong results. I then continued my studies at St Bede’s and St Joseph’s Catholic College, focusing on A-Levels in Biology, Chemistry and Maths, which gave me a solid foundation in the subjects I now teach. After college, I was accepted into Lancaster University Medical School, where I am currently in my fifth year of the MBChB Medicine programme. Throughout medical school I’ve deepened my understanding of science, problem-solving and communication skills — all of which I bring into my tutoring. Alongside my studies, I’ve been a Student Ambassador, Medical School Representative, and a Role Model Ambassador, which has allowed me to work closely with students of different ages, run outreach events and develop my ability to explain complex ideas in a clear and supportive way. I also have experience tutoring, helping students prepare for exams, improve their understanding and build confidence. This experience, combined with my academic background, enables me to support learners effectively and adapt my teaching to their needs.

Saarah H.

Saarah H.

New tutor

Hi! I’m Saarah, a Psychology student at the University of Leicester with a strong passion for understanding how the mind and body work together. What makes me stand out is my unique combination of interests in psychology, maths, and biology. While psychology helps me explore behaviour and mental processes, biology deepens my understanding of the brain, nervous system, and the science behind how we function. Maths, on the other hand, sharpens my analytical skills and helps me approach problems logically. I love how these subjects connect—biology gives me a solid scientific foundation, psychology brings in the human experience, and maths provides the tools to analyse and interpret data. This blend allows me to explain complex ideas in a clear, engaging way. I’m patient, friendly, and always aim to adapt to your learning style. Whether you're struggling to grasp a biology topic or aim to improve your maths skills, I’m here to support you. My goal is to build your confidence and help you enjoy learning, not just get through it. With the right support, I believe every student can thrive—and I’m excited to be part of that journey with you. I completed my GCSEs at Rushey Mead Secondary and A-levels at Beauchamp City Sixth Form with a strong academic record, focusing on subjects such as Psychology, Biology, and Maths—areas that reflect my interest in both the sciences and analytical thinking. These subjects helped me build a solid foundation for my current studies. I’m now pursuing a Psychology degree at the University of Leicester, where I’m deepening my understanding of human behaviour, cognitive processes, and mental health. My degree also includes research and statistical analysis, which ties in well with my appreciation for maths. Looking ahead, I plan to pursue a PhD in Psychology to further specialise and contribute to the field through research and practice. My academic journey has not only strengthened my subject knowledge but also taught me discipline, effective study strategies, and the importance of curiosity in learning. I’m passionate about helping students develop the same confidence in their subjects that I’ve worked hard to build myself.

When I contacted GoStudent I was tired of trying to find a tutor (French) for me, an adult learner over 60 years of age. Most tutoring targets children and younger adults. GoStudent connected me to a fabulous tutor with whom I enjoy each session and learn every single time we meet via Zoom. Ms Dondas is professional, engaged and responsive to my style and the areas I struggle with. I love my tutoring sessions.
