Hello! I'm Anoushka, a devoted Mechanical Engineering student at Bournemouth University, with a strong passion for mentoring the next generation in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, French and German. My extensive journey in Mechanical Engineering has equipped me with a profound understanding and expertise in these subjects. I channel this knowledge enthusiastically to provide comprehensive and approachable tutoring services to students from various exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC and Eduqas. My tutoring methodology is not merely about conveying information; I aim to bring these subjects to life, elucidating their profound implications on our daily existence. In my teaching, I regularly infuse practical examples, with a goal to inspire a long-lasting love for learning in my students that stretches beyond textbooks and traditional classrooms. Understanding the unique learning styles of every student, I have honed a customised teaching approach. Combining this personal touch with my mentoring capacity, I've been successful in unveiling the hidden potentials of numerous students, facilitating significant academic progress. My students regularly improve their grades by as many as 5 levels within a single academic year. A particular accomplishment that I cherish is assisting a student initially grappling with Mathematics and Physics at grade 4, to metamorphose into an autonomous problem solver, who eventually achieved grade 9 in both Mathematics and Physics GCSE's. I am deeply familiar with the UK GCSE curriculum, owing to my continuous commitment to self-improvement and education. I frequently partake in professional development workshops and courses to stay updated with the evolving GCSE curriculum, exam structures, and contemporary teaching methodologies. This proactive approach empowers me to fully prepare my students for their examinations. At the core, I am committed to guiding my students on their academic journey, assisting them in becoming independent learners, primed and enthusiastic to tackle intricate problems. I put special emphasis on mastering those challenging exam questions that demand more than a rudimentary recall of information. I aim to imbue them with confidence and equip them to unlock their highest potential and secure top grades. This, in turn, enables them to advance in their future career paths. Witnessing my students' holistic growth, both academically and personally, overall brings me the greatest gratification. I am a final year Mechanical Engineering Masters student studying at Bournemouth University with my academic prowess evident in my A-level achievements in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology alongside stellar grades 7-9 in the same subjects together with German and French. These subjects are not just areas I teach; they are disciplines that I have actively pursued and excelled in throughout my academic career. One key asset that I bring as a tutor is my current status as a Mechanical Engineering student. This up-to-date, hands-on experience allows me to provide learners with fresh insights and contemporary applications of the principles they are studying. This can help to make the learning experience more engaging, relatable, and beneficial for students as they can see the practical relevance of what they are learning. Beyond my academic qualifications, I firmly believe in the transformative power of education and the potential every student holds. My interest in teaching extends beyond just conveying the subject matter. I am committed to understanding the individual learning styles of my students, allowing me to tailor my teaching approach to their needs. This personalised methodology ensures that learning becomes a process of discovery, making it a more enjoyable and effective experience. I am dedicated to helping students uncover and maximise their potential. My aim is to empower students by equipping them with the knowledge they need and by fostering an environment that encourages curiosity and creativity. I strongly believe that learning should be a process of exploration and self-discovery, rather than just rote learning.

Hi! I’m Mehmood, 19 years old and currently studying medicine (MBBS) at Hull York Medical School. While I absolutely love studying, I have many other passions that burn just as brightly — I’m into sports, gym, and cycling, and I’m always open to trying new ones! Some cool facts about me: I speak English, Pashto and Urdu. Also, I have a 4-year-old tabby cat called Misty, and I’m one of six siblings! I’d describe myself as calm, composed, and confident—and I’m excited to share my tips and tricks to help others rise to the top of their academics. I attended St. Peter's RC High School in Gorton, where I studied separate sciences, business, geography, religious studies, and core subjects, achieving 6 grade 9s and 3 grade 8s. I then studied biology, psychology, and chemistry at Loreto Sixth Form College, earning A*AB in my A-levels. During my medical school application, I achieved a UCAT score of 2750 Band 1, securing four medical school interviews and ultimately firming Hull York Medical School—where I am currently studying medicine (MBBS). Alongside my academic journey, I’ve been a private tutor for the past two years, helping students build confidence and achieve top grades in science and math. I also completed a 3-week teaching internship at COOP Academy, delivering science lessons to Year 8 and 9 students. Additionally, I’ve gained valuable clinical experience working in GP practices and hospital settings, consulting with patients and developing strong communication and empathy skills. My educational background reflects a strong foundation in science and a passion for teaching. I’m excited to share the strategies and insights that helped me succeed and to support students in reaching their full academic potential.

I believe that I'm a very positive person that has an enthusiastic perspective on life. I get a great sense of achievement from seeing my students develop and grow as individuals. If I can have some sort of positive impact on their life, I feel fulfilled and that I am doing my job well. As a medical student with over six years of tutoring experience and more than 5000 online sessions, I specialize in teaching the Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, English Literature and Language, Computer Science, History, Geography, French. My lessons are dynamic, engaging, and tailored to meet the specific needs of each child, resulting in a high success rate for students passing these exams. I employ an adaptive teaching style that combines elements of dialogic teaching, scaffolding, and personalized instruction. Before each lesson, I meticulously prepare by reviewing the student's progress, assessing their strengths and areas for improvement, and aligning the content with their learning goals. This targeted approach enables me to provide effective instruction and address any gaps in understanding. Utilizing a range of resources such as textbooks, visual aids, online materials, and interactive exercises, I cater to diverse learning styles and maintain a stimulating learning experience. During our sessions, I prioritize active engagement, encouraging students to ask questions, seek clarification, and actively participate in discussions. By fostering a supportive environment, I aim to nurture critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and a deeper conceptual understanding. This approach, combined with my specialization in the Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, English Literature and Language, Computer Science, History, Geography, French, has resulted in a high success rate for students achieving their desired grade. Between lessons, I emphasize independent learning and practice, providing supplementary materials, recommending relevant resources, and suggesting exercises to consolidate knowledge. I expect students to take ownership of their learning journey, dedicating time outside of our sessions to review, practice, and apply the concepts learned. By doing so, they not only reinforce their understanding but also develop self-discipline and resilience, which contribute to their success in the targeted exams. In summary, my specialized tutoring in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, English Literature and Language, Computer Science, History, Geography, French, combined with an adaptive teaching style, active engagement, personalized instruction, and a focus on critical thinking, ensures a high success rate for students passing these exams. With thorough preparation, interactive sessions, and a commitment to fostering independent learning, I strive to empower students with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in these specific exams. Together, we embark on a rewarding educational journey, achieving remarkable outcomes in these targeted examinations.
