Hi there! I’m Ekom and I’m so excited to be your guide on your learning journey. With a passion for the Sciences, I specialize in teaching Psychology, Chemistry, and Biology. I believe that every student has a unique strength, and my goal is to help you tap into it so you can excel academically. I’ve always been fascinated by how the world works, whether it’s the human mind in Psychology, the reactions that drive Chemistry, or the relation of Biology to human life. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of helping students not only improve their grades but also understand these subjects. If you’re struggling with difficult concepts or just want to widen your knowledge, I’ll be with you every step of the way. I try to make learning engaging and relatable by using real-life examples to make complex topics easier to comprehend. Asides teaching, I love to watch TV shows like Friends, try out new cooking recipes and go on walks with my dog. Together, we’ll take on challenges, set goals, and celebrate your progress. I’m here to help you reach your full potential. Let’s make learning interesting and fun—looking forward to seeing you in class! My academic journey is rooted in a deep passion for the Sciences, which has been cultivated through years of study and practical experience. I hold a degree in Pharmacy from the University of Uyo, where I studied the disciplines of Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Psychology. Throughout my time at university, I gained a solid foundation in both theoretical knowledge and practical application, which allow me to approach complex concepts with clarity and insight. After collecting my University degree, I practiced as a Pharmacist in a General Hospital and spent a year working in the Psychiatry department, gaining practical knowledge in Psychology and Psychiatry. I have honed my teaching skills through a tutoring experience that has spanned 4 years. Having tutored students from various educational backgrounds, I am now skilled at breaking down complicated material and tailoring lessons to each student’s individual needs. With years of experience in both one-on-one tutoring and group sessions, I’ve developed an intuitive understanding of the challenges students face and how to guide them through these challenges effectively. I’ve worked with students preparing for various exams, including GCSEs, A-Levels, and University entrance exams. I tailor my teaching style to suit the Exam board and Syllabus using specific past question papers and marking schemes. Through continuous professional development, I stay up-to-date with the latest educational trends and advancements in the Sciences, ensuring I provide students with the best, most current resources and strategies for success.

Hi there! I'm English tutor Daniela and I have taught English for more than 10 years. I started teaching English in 2011 when I was still a college student. This was an online teaching job in which I was tasked with assisting the employees of a large oil company with their e-learning course. Later on in 2014, I was offered a teaching position at the university where I had graduated from. I taught English as a second language to more than 5000 students over the course of 5 years. In 2019, I moved to Spain and decided to resume my online teaching career. During these last 3 years, I have taught English to young learners and adults from multiple nationalities and linguistic backgrounds. During all these years, I have met wonderful and smart students from lots of countries across the globe. Each student I have encountered along the way has taught me that learning takes place when you feel safe, comfortable, understood and above all when you are having a great time. The most fundamental aspect I always bear in mind when I teach a lesson is: students do not learn from people who they do not like. Fun memories stick with us. Speaking of fun things, I love learning about philosophy, learning new languages, reading and watching animated as well as sci-fi movies. A language must be seen as something that is alive not as a static set of rules in a book. My intention in every class will show you how language is all about real communication and how context is everything in language learning. There are great habits that effective language learners need to develop and I will share them with you, so that you optimize your learning process. After graduating from high school, I immediately started my bachelor’s degree in the teaching of English as a second language. I graduated from university in 2013 with the bachelor’s thesis: “A professional development program in the public school Hugo Angel Jaramillo through pondering upon content and language integrated learning” and became an English teacher. While I was still carrying out my university studies, I took the TKT course and test. TKT stands for Teaching Knowledge Test and it is offered by the University of Cambridge. The course as well as the test have three modules. Module 1: Language and background to language learning and teaching. Module 2: Lesson planning and use of resources for language teaching. Module 3: Managing the teaching and learning process. Later on in 2019, I took a 120 hour TESOL certificate course which allowed me to brush up on some teaching basics. In 2020, I started my master’s degree in the teaching of English and Spanish as foreign and/or second languages in the University of Alicante. I graduated in 2021 with the master’s thesis “Implementing an online gamified flipped classroom to address emerging shortcomings in the rapidly evolving EMI field”.

GCSE: Biology A-Level: Biology Uni level: Biology, genetics, cancer Exam board exp: None so far Experience with: GCSE (limited), Uni level Languages: English, Arabic Exp with disabilities/special needs: Exp with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Preferred student age group: Any About me: I am academic clinician, originally from Sudan, with a passion for teaching. I used to teach my juniors in university and have continued to do that after I have graduated. I love biology, especially genetics; an interest which I have pursued by completing an MSc in Molecular Medicine in Sudan. During my Molecular Medicine degree, I developed an interest in cancer, so I applied for- and got accepted into an MSc in Cancer Sciences at the University of Glasgow. This turned out to be one of the first decisions I have ever made, as it gave me a solid foundation upon which I am currently building my academic career. I have won a few awards so far, one of which is ‘Best Research Paper’ award, which was in recognition of my outstanding achievement and command of research by the end of my MSc in Molecular Medicine. I have been awarded a few grants and scholarships and have met former president Barak Obama as part of the programme I had on one of the leadership courses I undertook in the US. Currently, I research the use of artificial intelligence in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of colorectal cancer which will greatly impact the quality of care that patients receive. My hobbies are archery and programming using Python, in addition to graphic design, web design and web development.

Hi, my name is Jasmine, I am 23 years old and I am from Bath, England. My favourite pastimes include reading, writing, painting and watching films/television series. Teaching is also a passion of mine and I am looking forward to helping you improve your English skills in a relaxed and supportive environment. I have just finished the final year of my degree studying French and German at the University of Bristol. As part of my course I taught English as a foreign language in Austria for 6 months to a range of age groups in two different schools. This experience was very enjoyable as I was asked to plan and deliver a range of lessons around many different topics, from culture and history, to sport, music and politics, all of which I found very interesting to research and discuss with my classes. I am currently living in France, working as a teaching assistant in Bordeaux, with the hope of starting a Master's course the following year. I believe my spoken and written English is of a very high standard, having studied this subject at A level.

I am currently a psychology undergraduate, aspiring to become a psychology teacher! My aspiration to become a teacher arises from a deep commitment to helping others realise their potential through learning. Throughout my studies, I have consistently taken satisfaction in supporting my peers to grasp challenging concepts, particularly in research. These experiences revealed how rewarding it is to guide others towards understanding and confidence. Teaching offers an ideal opportunity to combine my enthusiasm for psychology with my desire to make a meaningful contribution to young people’s education. In my spare time I like to read books, mostly romance and sometimes play games on my console. My current degree in psychology has given me a strong scientific foundation and a skill set highly relevant to teaching psychology. The subject itself is rooted in the scientific method, forming hypotheses, designing experiments, collecting data, and analysing results, all of which are central to understanding and teaching psychology effectively. Through my degree, I have developed strong analytical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills, as well as the ability to interpret data and explain complex theories clearly. Working on research projects such as mind-wandering and facial recognition has deepened my appreciation of how psychological principles can be applied in real-world contexts. These experiences are directly transferable to teaching psychology, where curiosity, critical thinking, and clarity are key to engaging students and helping them succeed.

Hi! I'm Jenna, a recently graduated Psychology student with a passion for learning and helping others achieve their full potential. As a determined problem-solver, I have always loved maths - the satisfaction I get from solving a particularly difficult problem is what makes it my favourite! From solving algebraic equations in early GCSE to working out financial budgets for my university life, maths has always been exciting for me. Hopefully I can share this passion with you, and have some fun along the way. I have some tutoring experience across a range of contexts, from helping year 7s struggling with secondary school maths topics, to regularly assisting university students with psychology questions. At the forefront of my focus is a student's inherent grasp of the topic. I will continually check your understanding, and I am willing to approach the topic from a different angle in order to elevate your understanding and knowledge. I am determined to help you in any way that I can so you can achieve your personal academic goals and importantly, boost your confidence in your own mathematical ability. There are no stupid questions in lessons with me - I will encourage you to stick with it and keep asking for help and guidance until you could do it in your sleep! It's not always about top grades: a solid understanding of mathematical concepts and familiarity with numerical rules come first, but good marks almost always come hand in hand with this. I look forward to tutoring you!

My name is Alia and I’m from London. I have achieved strong As in my GCSE grades including English Language and Literature as well as ICT. My passion is teaching and I especially love helping people bring out their potential and going beyond to ensure success. I have had the experience of working with a variety of different people from different cultures and ages whilst working and I have helped them to build on their English in general and significantly improve their fluency and pronunciation. I then volunteered in helping primary/secondary school pupils/students with their SATS and exams in general from which I received outstanding feedback from the parents and if possible the pupils/students themselves. This then encouraged me to become a tutor and start my own lessons because I realised how much I enjoy helping students reach their personal goals and achieve success.
