Hi! I’m Surabhi - I love helping students not just understand their subjects, but actually enjoy learning. I focus on building confidence, finding the right approach for each person, and making lessons engaging and interactive. I’m patient, approachable, and always happy to answer questions, no matter how small or silly they may sound :) Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading, art and dance! All of which helps me bring a bit of creativity into our sessions. Over the course of my education, I have developed strong knowledge in Economics but even more in English Literature - a subject I am highly passionate about, alongside effective study strategies that I now enjoy sharing with others. I have experience supporting peers through informal tutoring and study groups, helping them build confidence.

I am currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science, specialising in artificial intelligence, at the esteemed King's College London. With a strong academic foundation, I have discovered a true passion for teaching and find immense fulfilment in helping fellow students excel, particularly in subjects like Maths and Physics, which I thoroughly enjoy. I also have over 1000 hours of online tutoring experience and very high success rate. Throughout my educational journey, I have successfully completed A-levels in Maths, Further Maths, Physics, and Economics. These challenging subjects have equipped me with a deep understanding of the curriculum and allowed me to personally relate to the trials and tribulations students often face. By drawing upon my own experiences and employing effective communication techniques, I strive to guide and empower students to overcome obstacles and achieve their full potential. Beyond the realm of academia, I lead a well-rounded life filled with diverse interests and hobbies. When I'm not engrossed in my studies or teaching, you can often find me immersed in the captivating world of video games. The interactive nature of gaming not only provides an enjoyable escape but also enhances problem-solving skills and fosters a sense of teamwork. Moreover, I have a strong affinity for both indoor and outdoor sports. Engaging in physical activities not only promotes a healthy lifestyle but also teaches valuable lessons in discipline, perseverance, and teamwork. In my leisure time, I find solace and creative expression through playing musical instruments. The joy of producing harmonious melodies serves as a respite from the demands of daily life and allows me to explore my artistic side. Additionally, I am an ardent lover of movies and enjoy the collective experience of watching films with friends. Whether it's delving into thought-provoking narratives or simply indulging in lighthearted entertainment, the magic of cinema never fails to captivate me. Overall, I approach life with an optimistic and adventurous spirit, eagerly embracing the challenges and opportunities that come my way. With a blend of academic pursuit, teaching enthusiasm, recreational interests, and a vibrant social life, I am poised to make a positive impact in both my academic journey and the world around me.

I have over 10 years of experience in Education, learning, and development, teaching in both Primary and Secondary Schools. I specialise in teaching 11+, Social Sciences and prepping for national exams. I love helping students bridge the gap between what they currently know and what they need to know, by building confidence and resilience in their subject knowledge and approach to learning, especially in areas which they find particularly daunting. Engagement in learning is key. All lessons must be interactive to encourage learning and development. I encourage engagement through quizzes, questions, games, opinions, matching & sorting activities and use of mixed media. I adapt to different learning styles by meeting children where they are at, finding out what they currently know and using that information as a foundation to make learning accessible for them. I use assessments to track progress and plug gaps in their knowledge. My passion is to create successful learners who are able to achieve and exceed the goals they set for themselves. At A-Level, I studied Sociology (Grade A), Psychology (Grade B) and ICT (Grade C) at Southwark College. I then completed my BSc in Sociology and Criminology at City University, achieving a 2:1. I also have a PGCE in Upper Primary which I completed at Goldsmiths College. Additionally, I have a CIPD Level 5 Associate Diploma in Learning and Development.
