Lower Level: Business Studies, English Literature GCSE: Business Studies, English Literature, English Language A-Level: Business Studies, English Literature Preferred exam board experience: AQA for both English and Business Studies, however, the Edexcel Business Studies course has a lot of crossover and therefore could teach this. Languages: German up to GCSE level. Preferred student age group: Primary Level and GCSE level however would be happy to teach up to A-Level for both subjects. From a young age I had a passion for teaching; setting up my dolls and teaching them about whatever I had learnt that day at school, now I have the opportunity to do that and see the results of what we have gone through. Throughout sixth form, alongside my A-Levels I would tutor the younger pupils and help them gain confidence and find enjoyment in learning. now at University, whilst I no longer have the opportunity to do this I now volunteer at the local hospital organising activity evenings for the patients there. Not only do I meet a variety of people here but it has also greatly improved my organisational skills and challenged my already creative brain to new lengths. When I get the chance to relax I do so by reading. I hope that I can incorporate my love for literature in my teaching to create memorable and long lasting connections through what I teach my students. I hope my passion for teaching can be seen through my lessons and will inspire those who I work with to achieve their personal and academic goals! Up until leaving school at 18 I attended The Priory Academy LSST. Here I completed my GCSEs, coming away with 12 GCSEs securing two 9s in English Literature and English Language. I decided to choose English Literature, Psychology and Business Studies as my A-Level options and completed the two years with an A* in Psychology, an A in English Literature and a B in Business Studies. Currently, I am in my first year at Durham University studying Psychology with an optional module in English Literature.

Hi, my name is Sanjhu, and I’m someone who genuinely enjoys helping others learn and feel more confident in themselves. I understand that studying can sometimes feel overwhelming, so I always aim to create a calm, supportive, and friendly environment where students feel comfortable asking questions. I explain topics in a clear and simple way and adapt my approach to suit different learning styles. Outside of academics, I enjoy reading, going on walks, swimming, and spending time with friends and family. I’m reliable, approachable, and always motivated to support students in reaching their goals. I am currently a first-year medical student, studying at the University of Exeter. Before starting medicine, I completed A-levels in Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics, which gave me a strong foundation in scientific knowledge, problem-solving, and exam technique. My studies at university continue to build on these skills, particularly in understanding complex concepts, applying knowledge, and communicating clearly. Through my academic journey, I have developed a strong awareness of how to study effectively and how to support others in understanding challenging topics.

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.
