Hi there! My name is Lee-Shé, and I’m passionate about helping students unlock their full potential. I specialize in English and have approximately 7 years of tutoring experience, working with students of all ages and skill levels. My teaching style is personalized, engaging, and focused on building confidence and understanding. I hold a Degree in Education, and I love making learning fun and relatable by connecting concepts to real-life examples. Whether you're preparing for exams, tackling tricky topics, or just looking to improve your skills, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Let’s work together to achieve your goals and make learning an exciting journey! I have obtained my National Senior Certificate in 2013, I then attained my TEFL certificate at TEFL Professional Development Institute in 2017 and thereafter attained my Degree in Education, specializing in the Foundation Phase in 2024 at Nelson Mandela University.

Boosting your grades in the exam boil down to a very simple approach: Identify weak areas using mock exams, spend time practicing those questions and solve at least 3 past paper per subject. Following this simple approach, my students were able to improve their grade by 2-3 in their Physics and Math exams. If you feel you need someone to make this journey easy for you, feel free to book a free trial lesson Levels and Subjects I Teach 11+ Exam Preparation (Math, Verbal Reasoning, Non-verbal Reasoning) KS3: Math and Science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) GCSE: Physics and Math both foundation and higher tier A-Level: Physics Exam Board Experience Majority of my students have been affiliated with AQA, OCR, Edexcel and Cambridge. I have helped students prepare for 11 plus exam and also tutored KS3 students. Languages I am fluent in English and Urdu I can speak and understand Hindi and Punjabi SEND experience: I have experience of teaching students with ADHD and dyslexia Preferred Student Age Group I understand that one needs to adapt according to the student's age group- with primary year and middle year students you need to be very engaging and make the lessons as simple as possible whereas with GCSE and A-levels you can count on the student's foundational knowledge and use higher level of pedagogy. I mostly use powerpoint presentations to tutor KS3 students and while helping my students prepare for their 11+ exam, and it has proved to make lessons more engaging for them. However, in case of GCSE and A-levels, I invite my students to the whiteboard so we can solve, draw and practice in real-time. I believe that I am comfortable in working with students of all age groups: KS3, GCSE and A-levels. About Me I am a Civil Engineer pursuing a Master's in Water Resources Management, with over 9 years of experience in the STEM field. Since early 2022, I have taught Physics and Mathematics to Middle Year, GCSE, and A-Level students, with over 90% of my students achieving top grades (7+ in GCSE or A/A* at A-Level). My teaching approach ensures students not only understand the material but also enjoy the learning process. Academically, I have consistently ranked among the top performers: Rank 1 in my College Exam Board, Rank 5 in High School, a finalist in the International Chemistry Olympiad, and recipient of the prestigious Industrial Award during my undergraduate studies. Additionally, I earned a certification from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in "Learning to Teach Online," where I learned how to effectively use technology and innovative teaching techniques. My focus is on ensuring students grasp the "Thought Behind Things," enabling them to confidently approach any question and excel in their exams. I have a Bachelors degree in Civil Engineering from National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST) and graduated in 2019 with Industrial Award. I have a certification in Online Teaching from the University of New South Wales. I ranked 1st in my College board exam (2015) and ranked 5th in my High School board exam (2013).

M(Eng) Mechanical Engineering student at the University of Birmingham with A levels in Physics, Maths and Chemistry, achieving 9s and 8s in 8 GCSEs.I enjoy helping students build confidence in STEM subjects through clear explanations and practical problem-solving. I am currently studying for an MEng in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Birmingham, where I am developing a strong foundation in engineering principles, problem solving, and practical design skills. My course covers areas such as mechanics, thermodynamics, materials, and manufacturing, alongside project based learning and teamwork. Prior to university, I completed my GCSEs and A Levels at Abbot Beyne School in Burton upon Trent, where I built a solid academic base in mathematics and science and developed an early interest in engineering and how mechanical systems work.

I've tutored maths and physics for 3 years and have loved guiding and teaching my students to pass their GCSE's and A-levels. I recently graduated with a Masters in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Birmingham and understand how important these first few steps are on the road to higher education. Graduated with a Masters in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Birmingham Studied Math's Physics and Biology for A-level at RGSHW (A*,A,B respectively) Notable GCSE's or equivalent: Math's, Further Math's, Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science
