"Hi Christine, Diarmuid here. I just got my results and I got the 2nd highest German grade you can get. You helped me so much and I can't thank you enough." Hello there! My name is Christine and I am a junior doctor. I have always been passionate about learning and sharing knowledge in a manner that's simple and enjoyable. With over 5 years tutoring experience, I focus on an engaging, holistic, and student-centric approach to tutoring, whilst sharing my passion and love for learning! I firmly believe the key to mastering anything is understanding the basics and then weaving them together to gain the bigger picture. I have worked diligently to hone my skils over the years, even applying them in my own studies in the medical field, and have been able to get testimonials such as the one above and: "Hi Christina only to let you know Felipe had a 6 in biology which is very good compared with the 3 in January! Hope we can work together from September. So, thank you x" - Pilar "Just to let you know Yousef passed all his GCSEs. Thank you." - Naz "Hii, it’s Mike. I just wanted to say thank you so much for helping me this year and I wouldn’t have done it without your help and support." During the sessions, I work with my students through the agreed upon topic paying close attention to the core concepts, we go through some exam-style questions, and also learn how to frame the answers in the way examiners expect. I also share effecting studying and memory techniques to enable them to better learn and master their content. In my spare time, I enjoy singing (I'm currently taking a music theory class and hope to progress to one day play the cello) and dancing. These help me unwind and also have fun! I look forward to extending this interesting mixture of fun and learning to my students and help the strike that oh-so-elusive balance between work and play so that they can become the best versions of themselves. Would you like to have similar testimonials as these? "hellooooo! hope your doing well. it’s the results day today, just letting you know that i got a 7 in german!! i am very happy with the results, thank you so much for all of your help i definitely wouldn’t have got this if it wasn’t for you 😁" - Shangami "Hello Christine, I hope you have had a good summer. Alastair wanted you to know he passed GCSE combined. He got 55 Score for his GCSE. He is now going to do A levels and considering btec science to compliment a level PE. Thank you for your support, you really made a difference." - Jill I'm available to work together with you/your student and I'm excited to help them achieve their highest potential. See you soon!

My name is Mashika, and I am a civil engineer and a have also worked as a middle school and high school teacher at Villa Grimani International School. I have a robust educational background that includes a Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering and a Master's degree in Complex Systems Engineering that I am currently pursuing. Additionally, I am passionate about child psychology and have read extensively on the subject to deepen my understanding of how children learn. This has truly shaped my teaching style which involves alot of interactive discussions and problem solving which in turn leads to increased self confidence and reasoning ability in students. Throughout my teaching journey, I have had the privilege of tutoring students of different ages and backgrounds in subjects such as Math, Chemistry, and Biology. This experience has strengthened my teaching skills, especially when it comes to understanding different student learning styles. I have found it fascinating to see how students grasp new concepts when they are related to real-life analogies. I find great joy in teaching, and one of my favorite quotes is by Steve Jobs, who said, "The only way to do great work is to love what you do". As a former student myself, I understand the challenges of studying, and I strive to make learning fun for my students. ARE YOU EXCITED TO JOIN ME ON THIS ACADEMIC JOURNEY?

Hi, I’m Nushra Imtiyas — an enthusiastic and dedicated teacher of both Mathematics and English, with a genuine love for helping students grow in confidence and ability. I believe learning should never feel dull or overwhelming; instead, it should be engaging, meaningful, and even enjoyable. Whether we’re analysing a text in English or solving a challenging Maths problem, I aim to create lessons that spark curiosity and encourage students to think deeply and independently. I love transforming abstract ideas into something relatable and clear. In English, that might mean stepping into a character’s perspective, debating themes, or connecting literature to real-life experiences. In Maths, it could mean breaking down complex problems into manageable steps and linking concepts to everyday situations so they feel practical and relevant. My teaching style is interactive and student-centred. I encourage discussion, questioning, and active participation because I believe students learn best when they feel heard and involved. I use visuals, real-world examples, guided practice, and creative activities to ensure that every learner — regardless of their starting point — feels supported. Most importantly, I celebrate progress, no matter how small. Watching a student move from “I don’t understand” to “I’ve got this” is the most rewarding part of my work. Beyond teaching, I enjoy reading, playing netball, and jogging every morning. Staying active keeps me energised, focused, and positive — qualities I bring into every lesson. For me, teaching is not just about academics; it’s about inspiring resilience, building confidence, and helping students realise that they are capable of far more than they think. I graduated with a degree in Software Engineering, where I focused on English, Mathematics, and Information Technology. This combination gave me a strong balance of logical thinking and creativity, which I now bring into my teaching. Over the past six years, I’ve been teaching and tutoring students of different ages and abilities, and that experience has helped me grow not just as a teacher, but as a mentor too. My studies gave me a solid understanding of teaching methods, language, and literature, while also strengthening my problem-solving and communication skills. I learned how to plan lessons that are clear, engaging, and structured in a way that makes learning feel manageable rather than overwhelming. I also developed the ability to adapt my teaching style to different learning needs, whether a student learns best through visuals, discussion, practice, or step-by-step guidance. Most importantly, I always aim to create a warm and supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and building confidence. For me, teaching is not just about delivering content it’s about helping every student feel capable and encouraged to reach their full potential.

I teach English Literature and English Language to GCSE aged students. I also teach English as a foreign language to both children and adults. I teach English to French students and can speak conversational French to aid this. I tutor students working towards their IELTS qualification I have a Masters in Mental and Moral Science (Philosophy) from Trinity College, Dublin and am looking to further my formal education in the coming years aside from the countless MOOCs I've taken ranging from Opera to Counter-Terrorism classes. I enjoy Creative Writing and am always penning stories or poetry. I have lived all over the world, love traveling and exploring and look forward to learning how we can incorporate your personal experiences and passions into your studies. I currently live in the South of France with my two young children.
