Shahana C.

Hello! My name is Aminah, and I’m an Accounting and Finance student at Aston University with a strong academic background in Maths and a passion for helping students feel more confident and capable in the subject. I understand that every student has a different learning style, which is why I adapt my teaching methods to suit their individual needs. Whether you’re struggling with basic concepts or aiming for top grades, I create lessons that are structured, supportive, and easy to follow — always encouraging questions and active participation. My approach is patient, calm, and clear. I break down topics step by step and use real-life examples to help ideas stick. I want my students to not only improve academically but to build long-term confidence in their abilities. Outside of tutoring, I love baking, reading, and solving puzzles — hobbies that help me stay creative and detail-oriented, which also influences how I teach. I believe learning should be enjoyable and engaging, and I strive to bring that into every session. If you’re looking for a tutor who’s approachable, committed, and ready to help you grow in Maths, I’d be excited to work with you! I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and Finance at Aston University. This course has deepened my understanding of numbers, logical thinking, and problem-solving—skills that are essential in both mathematics and tutoring. Before university, I completed my GCSEs and A Levels at King Edward VI Lordswood School for Girls. At GCSE level, I achieved a grade 8 in Mathematics, which I’m especially proud of. Having recently gone through the exam process myself, I understand the challenges that KS1 to GCSE students face, and I’m well-equipped to guide them with effective study techniques, structured support, and encouragement. My academic journey has given me a strong foundation in maths and a clear sense of how to explain concepts in a way that is simple, engaging, and tailored to each student’s learning style. I’m passionate about helping students gain confidence, tackle difficult topics, and achieve their full potential.

I am a Qualified Teacher with over 20 years of experience teaching Mathematics to students of all levels. Experience with: Key Stage 3, Key Stage 4, GCSE Maths Exam Prep, Special Need,11+ ,13+ Exam Board Experience: I can work with any exam board. Edexcel, AQA, OCR (most material is common to all exam boards). I am currently working as a Mathematics teacher at a school in the U.K. In my previous roles, I taught mathematics and coding. I have also tutored students at various levels, from elementary school to college. I am very well aware of the Mathematics curriculum and always look for new and engaging ways to teach it. I am passionate about helping students learn and committed to providing them with the best possible education. I am proficient in English I hold a Master of Technology (M.Tech.) in Mathematics & Computer Science with Honors. I also hold a Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) in Mathematics & Computer Science with Honors. I am a highly motivated and skilled Teacher with a strong academic background. I am confident that I can make a positive impact on the lives of my students and help them reach their full potential.

I am a dedicated and results-driven tutor with a strong academic background in the sciences, supported by hands-on experience in laboratory research and academic writing. I have contributed to a publication with the British Heart Foundation in collaboration with the University of Oxford, which strengthened my ability to analyse complex information and communicate it clearly. This experience allows me to explain complex scientific concepts in a way that is clear, engaging, and accessible to students at all levels. I specialise in GCSE Biology and 11+ preparation, with a clear focus on helping students achieve top grades (A/A*). My teaching style is structured, engaging, and tailored to each student’s individual needs. I break down challenging concepts into simple, digestible steps and place strong emphasis on exam technique, ensuring students can confidently apply their knowledge. For 11+ students, I provide targeted support in areas such as problem-solving, comprehension, and critical thinking. I adapt each lesson to suit the student’s pace and learning style, creating a supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions and building confidence. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading widely, particularly around science and personal development, which helps me bring fresh perspectives into my teaching. I enjoy inspiring and supporting others in their learning, keeping active, and pursuing my love of singing, experiences that have shaped my confidence and ability to connect with people effectively. My goal is not only to improve grades but to develop independent learners who feel empowered in their studies. I am committed to delivering high-quality, virtual tutoring that is both supportive and results-focused, helping every student reach their full academic potential. I hold a first-class degree in Biomedical Science, with a strong focus on molecular biology, genetics, and physiology. During my studies, I gained extensive laboratory experience, including DNA extraction, library preparation, and NGS techniques, which strengthened my practical, analytical, and problem-solving skills. I have contributed to a publication with the British Heart Foundation in collaboration with the University of Oxford, enhancing my ability to communicate complex scientific concepts clearly and effectively. In addition, I hold a Level 3 Diploma in Paramedic Science, with training in emergency medicine, which has further developed my practical, decision-making, and problem-solving skills in high-pressure situations. My academic foundation is complemented by GCSEs predominantly at A and A* grades, reflecting a strong record of consistent achievement across core subjects. Alongside my academic qualifications, I have completed training in teaching and academic mentoring, equipping me to design lessons tailored to individual learning needs and help students achieve top grades. I chose Biomedical Science out of a passion for understanding living systems and applying scientific knowledge in practical ways. My combination of a first-class academic record, research and lab experience, paramedic training, and tutoring expertise allows me to confidently support students in GCSE Biology and 11+ preparation. I focus on building both strong subject knowledge and effective exam strategies, helping students gain confidence, stay motivated, and excel academically.

I have been tutoring with GoStudent for almost a year 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.
