Hi! I'm Izy, and I recently completed my degree in Applied Linguistics at the University of Warwick - BA Language, Culture and Communication. I previously tutored younger children at my high school, and have since taught ESL in Peru, Ecuador and Mexico. I thoroughly enjoy both teaching English as a second language, and tutoring English subjects in the UK. I completed A-Levels in History, English Language and Maths (A*A*A), and am hoping to work as a paediatric Speech and Language therapist, after completing my Masters. I am competent in AQA Exam Boards. At University I competed at an international level for music, and really enjoy reading and learning new languages in my free time! I am currently obtaining my 120-hour TEFL certificate, as well as my Level 2 Understanding Autism qualification. I attended a state school, receiving eight grade 9s, and two grade 8s at GCSE, and A*A*A at A-Level (History, English Language, Maths). I recently graduated from the University of Warwick with a 1st Class BA Hons in Language, Culture and Communication (Applied Linguistics), completing a dissertation in phonetics & phonology.

Teaching isn't just a profession for me; it's a passion that fuels my desire to inspire and guide students toward their full potential. With a deep commitment to fostering a positive and inclusive learning environment, I tailor my teaching methods to meet the unique needs of each student. Whether it's simplifying complex concepts or encouraging critical thinking, I strive to make learning engaging and accessible. Beyond academics, I aim to instill confidence, curiosity, and a love for lifelong learning in my students. Let's embark on this educational journey together and unlock the doors to your success! I am a proud graduate of the prestigious Shaikh Ahmad Hassan School of Law (SAHSOL) at Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), where I completed the BA-LL.B (Honours) program. This rigorous five-year, full-time degree combines a liberal arts education with professional legal training, accredited by the Pakistan Bar Council and the Higher Education Commission. The program's interdisciplinary approach enriched my understanding of law through courses in economics, political science, sociology, and more, fostering a critical and comparative perspective on legal systems. After completing my legal education, I ventured into the clothing business, where I successfully ran my own enterprise for five years. This experience honed my skills in business management, marketing, and customer relations, providing me with a practical understanding of the commercial world. It also deepened my appreciation for the intersection of law and business, particularly in areas like contract law and intellectual property rights.

Hello! I’m Ayan, a medical student with a genuine love for learning and helping others succeed. I’ve been tutoring since 2022, and over that time, I’ve had the chance to work with students from all kinds of backgrounds and learning styles. Seeing someone go from feeling unsure to feeling confident in their studies is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. As a medical student, I’ve learned how to break down complex topics into simple, easy-to-understand ideas a skill that’s incredibly useful when teaching. I’m patient, hardworking, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure my students truly grasp what they’re learning. I also understand how stressful school and exams can be, so I aim to create a positive and supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. I believe that learning should never feel impossible or intimidating. With the right guidance and mindset, anyone can improve and achieve their goals. Whether you need help understanding science concepts, preparing for exams, or building better study habits, I’m here to help you every step of the way. If you’re looking for a tutor who’s reliable, approachable, and passionate about helping you grow, I’d love to work with you. Together, we’ll make learning feel not only manageable but genuinely enjoyable. I specialize in Biology, Maths, Physics, and Science, and I teach students at the following levels: Primary Lower (KS1) Primary Higher (KS2) Secondary Lower (KS3) Secondary Higher (KS4-5) This allows me to work with students from their early years through to advanced secondary education, supporting them with foundational skills or more challenging material. I focus on creating lessons tailored to each student’s level and learning style, ensuring that concepts are both understandable and engaging. My background as a medical student has strengthened my knowledge of the sciences and given me experience in analytical thinking, problem-solving, and structured learning. I bring these skills into my tutoring sessions to help students not only prepare for exams but also develop a deep understanding of the subjects they are studying. Whether it’s helping a young learner build confidence in Maths, guiding a secondary student through complex Biology topics, or exploring Physics and Science concepts in a clear and approachable way, I aim to make learning productive and enjoyable. My teaching approach is structured, patient, and adaptable, designed to meet the individual needs of every student. With a strong foundation in education and a passion for teaching, I’m committed to supporting my students in reaching their full academic potential.
