I have been tutoring with GoStudent for six months now, having formerly worked at museums, churches and summer camps. I enjoy working with children and am a current Sunday-School teacher and former volunteer with several youth charities. I also have two years of classroom experience with Years 2 and 3, but am happy to work with children of any age, teaching English, Maths, History, Latin, and RE. Please note I do not take adult learners at this time. I am a graduate of the University of Cambridge with a first-class degree in History, also having taken papers in Classics and Theology. I won several prizes during my degree, including three prize scholarships and the Roy Porter Prize for History in my second year. Prior to my degree, I took three A-Levels in History, Maths and English, receiving all A*s, and prior to that, ten GCSEs, receiving all 9s.

Hello! My name is Fatima Ayyaz. I am a certified and experienced teacher with a proven track record of helping students excel academically from Primary level through to GCSE, IGCSE, IB (HL & SL), and A-Level. My teaching is fully tailored to the curriculum and learner, with expertise across all major exam boards, including AQA, OCR, Edexcel, Cambridge, WJEC, and IB. My students consistently achieve outstanding results: • 92% of GCSE students achieved Grades 7–9. • 88% of A-Level & IB students secured A/A or 6–7* in their final exams. • Many improved by 2–3 grade levels within a single term through structured, personalised support. I also hold certifications in SEN teaching, equipping me to provide adaptive and inclusive lessons for students with additional needs. Being fluent in English and Urdu allows me to connect with learners from diverse backgrounds and create a supportive learning environment where everyone can thrive. My teaching style blends exam-focused preparation with confidence-building techniques, helping students not only achieve top results but also develop independent study skills and a long-term love for learning. I also provide parents with regular progress updates to ensure complete transparency and measurable improvements. 🎓 Education & Certifications • Bachelor of Science in Economics — Forman Christian College (University). Built a strong foundation in mathematics, statistics, and research methods, supporting my ability to teach both STEM and Social Sciences. • SEN Training – expertise in adapting lessons to support learners with additional needs. • Exam Board Training – certified in exam techniques and curriculum requirements for AQA, OCR, Edexcel, Cambridge, WJEC, and IB.

Hello! My name is Emma, and I am a second-year Accounting and Finance student at Lancaster University. I achieved 9 GCSEs, ranging from 7-9, which allowed me to study Chemistry, Economics and Maths. I also gained an A* in my EPQ, which I completed in year 12, giving me crucial skills that I have carried forward to my degree. I have been tutoring for 8 months. During this time, I have helped prepare primary school students for their SATS and gained more confidence with maths in the classroom. I also prepared year 11 and 13 students for their GCSE and A levels by covering content they were unsure of and practising exam techniques. I previously gained experience mentoring GCSE students at my school. I am a student with dyslexia, so I understand the challenges students face in classroom settings. Anyone can be successful, which is why my sessions are student-led, so that they are catered towards each individual's learning style. If you are unsure of this throughout my school career, I have learnt different methods that work for me and would love to pass them on to others so that we can find a technique that works for you. I attended Rugby School, where I completed my GCSEs and A levels, and now I have gone on to study for a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and Finance at Lancaster University, where my ambition is to become an ACA Chartered Accountant. Having studied Chemistry, Economics and Maths at A level, I offer tutoring for students up to and including year 11 in Maths and Chemistry and then Economics up to and including year 13 students.

As a passionate and dedicated Electrical Engineering student entering my third year, I have not only mastered core technical subjects but have also discovered a genuine enthusiasm for explaining these complex concepts to others. My academic journey has equipped me with a strong foundation in mathematics, physics, and fundamental engineering principles. I understand the challenges students can face with these demanding subjects because I navigate them daily myself. This allows me to connect with learners, identify their specific stumbling blocks, and break down intimidating topics into clear, manageable steps. I believe patience and clear communication are just as important as technical knowledge, and I am committed to helping students build both confidence and competence. My experience extends beyond solo achievement. Through countless group projects and study sessions, I have honed my ability to collaborate and explain ideas to peers with different learning styles. This has solidified my belief that a supportive, encouraging environment is key to academic growth—a philosophy I know aligns with the values at GoStudent. My well-rounded personality, which includes the teamwork of soccer, the discipline of running, and the focus found in reading, helps me connect with students on a personal level. I am not just a tutor; I am a mentor who understands the pressures and goals of being a student. Ultimately, my family-oriented background has instilled in me the values of patience, encouragement, and the importance of helping others succeed. I am eager to bring this supportive and dynamic approach to GoStudent, and I am excited by the prospect of helping my peers unlock their potential and achieve their academic goals in subjects like Math, Physics, and introductory Engineering. My educational journey has provided me with a strong and diverse academic foundation, culminating in my current specialized field of study. I began my studies at Cenaturi Combined School, where I attended from Grade 1 through Grade 7. This formative period was crucial in instilling in me the core principles of discipline and a lifelong love for learning, particularly in mathematics and science. For my secondary education, I attended Thohoyandou Secondary School, where I further developed this academic focus. The rigorous curriculum in subjects like Physical Science and Advanced Mathematics was instrumental in preparing me for the challenges of higher education and solidified my ambition to pursue a field rooted in technical problem-solving and innovation. I am currently advancing my studies at the University of Johannesburg, where I am enrolled in a Bachelor of Engineering program specializing in Electrical Engineering. My coursework has provided me with a deep and practical understanding of key engineering principles. I am actively developing specializations in several core areas, including: Electronic Circuit Design: Analyzing and designing analog and digital circuits. Power Systems: Understanding the generation, transmission, and distribution of electrical power. Signal Processing: Learning techniques to analyze and manipulate analog and digital signals. Engineering Mathematics: Applying advanced mathematical concepts to solve complex engineering problems. This technical knowledge, combined with the fundamental skills built throughout my schooling, allows me to confidently tutor subjects like Mathematics and Physical Science. I can explain not only the 'how' but also the 'why,' by connecting school-level topics to their real-world engineering applications, making learning more engaging and meaningful for my students.
