I'm Ahsan, a second-year Accounting and Finance student at Queen Mary University of London. I tutor GCSE and A-Level Maths and Economics and I genuinely love helping students get to grips with topics that feel confusing at first. I have paid tutoring experience so I know how to break things down in a way that actually makes sense. I'm patient, friendly, and I'll work at whatever pace suits you best. Whether you're trying to catch up or push for a top grade, I'm here to help you get there! I am currently in my second year studying BSc Accounting and Finance at Queen Mary University of London, giving me a strong and up-to-date understanding of the subjects I teach. I completed my A-Levels in Mathematics, Economics, and Business Studies, so I know exactly what is required at that level and what examiners are looking for. I have paid tutoring experience working with GCSE and A-Level students, helping them build confidence, close knowledge gaps, and improve their grades. I take a structured approach to every session, starting by identifying where a student is struggling and working through those areas clearly before moving forward. Alongside my studies, I have professional experience in a finance environment which means I can bring real-world context to Economics and Maths topics, making them easier to understand and more engaging for students.
Samiya F.
Hi there! I am a third year biomedical sciences student keen on utilising my skills to help others. I love baking in my free time, which helps me wind down. It also helps that I can give cute little treats that I make to friends and family. As a current university student, I understand the challenges of balancing coursework, revision and exams and I know it can be a lot to handle. However, I reassure you that I will be there to help you through it all. I attended primary school in England. I moved to Scotland to complete my Highers where I did four Highers and graduated with a prize in Higher Chemistry. I went St Paul's RC in Dundee. Currently, I go to the University of Dundee where I am pursuing a Biomedical Sciences degree. I have received multiple excellence awards in the triple science subjects which include chemistry, physics and biology. I know I wanted to further study these subjects hence I am doing biomed at University.

From a remarkably young age, my journey has been defined by an insatiable curiosity and a multi-disciplinary drive—whether I was writing poetry and stories, teaching mathematics, repairing bicycles, phones, and computers, or mastering multiple musical instruments. Driven by deep planning, discipline, and consistency, I possess the proven ability to learn and master any skill from novice to advanced level. Over nine years of teaching Mathematics and English across diverse age groups—and designing my own custom educational materials—I have empowered learners to truly understand complex concepts, with 90 percent of my students significantly improving both their academic performance and work ethic. This impact led local schools to invite me specifically to help break down advanced mathematical concepts for their classes. Parallel to my teaching, my background in technology spans practical software development, data science, systems administration, and security. I code fluently in Python and JavaScript, hold intermediate proficiency in C, C++, C#, Java, and PHP, and build custom, accurate software tools that automate workflows and dramatically reduce operational time. Highly adaptable across Windows, macOS, and Linux environments, I leverage my advanced mathematical background alongside cloud computing to group, sort, organize, and analyze complex datasets into meaningful, actionable insights. I am proficient in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint) to optimize business efficiency, and I maintain a solid foundation in cybersecurity to perform safety tests, protect systems, and execute proper threat response measures. Beyond technical and academic expertise, I am a dedicated communicator, mediator, and community mentor. I take pride in explaining products and services with clarity, treating every customer with respect, and stepping in as a neutral third party to resolve conflicts with win-win solutions. Grounded in empathy, I deliver motivational talks on life, technology, the arts, and mathematics, and I have spent my spare time teaching piano, guitar, and vocals to youth as a constructive outlet against depression, violence, and substance abuse. Ultimately, I don't work merely for a salary; I work to learn, teach, innovate, and collaborate, combining ideas with diverse teams to build healthy, successful systems where quality solutions thrive. I am a passionate educator with over 12 years of experience teaching Mathematics, dedicated to helping students build confidence and excel in their studies. Throughout my teaching career, I have supported learners across Key Stages 2, 3, and 4, as well as GCSE (AQA, OCR, Edexcel), AS Level, and A Level Mathematics. Beyond classroom instruction and private tutoring, I extend my impact by authoring mathematics books and developing educational apps designed to make complex concepts clear, engaging, and accessible. I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, alongside a BSc in Computer Science—a combination that allows me to bridge the gap between theoretical elegance and practical innovation. While my work in mathematics gives me the tools to decode complex patterns, structure rigorous logic, and model the universe's most intricate problems, my studies in computer science allow me to bring those abstract formulas to life through code, algorithm design, and software engineering. I don't just study equations on a page or lines of code on a screen; I build a unified discipline where mathematical precision fuels technological solutions, transforming raw logic into real-world impact. My teaching practice is deeply informed by educational psychology, allowing me to understand how individual learners process information and tailor my approach to their unique learning styles. I have extensive experience supporting neurodivergent learners, including students with ADHD and dyslexia, and I adapt strategies to foster an inclusive, structured, and encouraging environment. Having worked with a diverse range of international students, I often communicate with learners in their home languages to build trust, bridge cultural gaps, and ensure complex concepts are fully understood. Driven by a strong belief in lifelong learning and effective communication, my work spans multiple disciplines. In addition to tutoring mathematics, I serve as an Air Traffic Service Officer—where precision, analytical thinking, and high-stakes problem-solving are paramount—and perform as a musician, blending technical expertise with creative passion. I explore the beauty of pure mathematical theory and apply it directly to real-world challenges. By taking abstract concepts, patterns, and complex equations, I translate them into practical solutions for modern problems. Whether it's modeling complex systems, analyzing data, or building logical frameworks, my focus is on using the power of mathematics to make sense of the world and build better solutions for the future.

Hi, I'm Kirtivasan (but feel free to call me KV!). I am currently studying Electrical Engineering at the University of Warwick, where I get to apply Maths and Physics to real-world technology every day. I tutor A-Level Maths, Further Maths, Physics, and Computer Science. I believe learning should be engaging, and I use my background in practi I am currently pursuing an MEng in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Warwick, where I am predicted to achieve a First-Class degree (70%+) across all my modules. Prior to university, I attended KEVI Handsworth Grammar School for Boys from Year 7 to 13, securing straight A and A* grades across both my A-Levels (Maths, Physics, and Computer Science) and my GCSEs (Maths, English Literature and Language, Triple Science, DT, Art, Music, Religious Studies, and Computer Science). As a testament to my academic foundation in STEM, I successfully completed the ESAT during my application cycle, which earned me an interview and a subsequent offer to study Electrical Engineering at Imperial College London, an institution ranked second in the world for engineering.
