Shahana C.

I am currently studying Medicine at the University of Plymouth. From a young age I have always enjoyed helping others as it brings happiness and joy to me. This is also the main reason why I wanted to become a tutor. In my spare time, I enjoy playing sports, particularly football and cricket. I have 2 younger brothers, so I am always entertained. I love talking and spending time with them. For secondary school, I attended the Oxford Spires Academy where I completed my GCSEs. For 6th form, I was accepted by The Cherwell School, where I completed my A-levels. At GCSE level science I achieved a grade 8/8 and at A-levels I achieved grades A in both Biology and Chemistry. In my first year of UCAS application, I did not receive any offers to study Medicine at University. However, towards the end of summer I came across an opportunity to study medicine through an alternative route. The University of Plymouth were offering a one-year transfer from Biomed to Medicine providing one achieved 3 As at A-levels, maintained a 70% pass rate across all modules in 1st year and passed the interview for Medicine. In the previous year only 2/23 applicants were successful in this route. Although this was intense, I was able to successfully transfer from Biomed to Medicine after the 1st year. This year I just completed my 1st year as a Medical student at the University of Plymouth

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.

Hi there. James here, from South Africa. I taught in London in Walthamstow for my probationary year in 1991, and then in Johannesburg and Kwazulu-Natal in South Africa for a total of 21 years. I have taught Cambridge A Level History and England and South Africa's English and History curricula. I am also a published researcher, poet, and author. I enjoy cross-country running. I like NETFLIX mystery series. I regularly get out wilderness walking and cross country swimming. Since February 2025, I tutor English and Religious Studies for GoStudent. I battled with learning difficulties at school. However, I did very well after school, because I knew that English opens doors. So, I set goals. Then I achieved a B.A (1985) and a B. Ed (1996) degree, at Wits University in Johannesburg. I did a Masters Degree in Theology (Regent College, Vancouver, B.C., 2001) and a PhD in Church History (University of KwaZulu-Natal, 2016). I believe education is a lifelong journey. We master English every day for the rest of our lives. So I'm still learning as I tutor GCSE students, A Level students, and juniors, to reach their highest goals.

Dear Prospective Students, I am a dynamic and enthusiastic individual with a passion for teaching and learning. My interests include drawing and listening to uplifting music, which inspire my creativity and positivity. My faith in Jesus Christ guides me to strive for excellence and reach my full potential, and I believe that a supportive environment is crucial for achieving success. As a tutor, I am committed to creating a comfortable and engaging learning experience, fostering a positive atmosphere that encourages growth and development. With a strong background in education and a genuine desire to help students excel, I am confident in my ability to make a positive impact. My goal is to empower students to reach their full potential, and I am excited about the prospect of working with like-minded individuals who share my enthusiasm for learning. I look forward to meeting my students and contributing to their academic success. Thank you for considering my profile. I am eager to establish a fruitful and enjoyable learning experience. Best regards, MASHISHI Keneilwe Mathilda I matriculated in 2021 with a strong academic record, particularly in Science, Pure Mathematics, and Music - a subject I am passionate about. I achieved a commendable pass rate of over 80% in English. 70% in music and 60% in mathematics. During my secondary and high school years, I informally tutored my classmates, which not only honed my teaching skills but also earned me recognition from my peers and teachers. My music teacher notably remarked on my ability to teach, stating that despite being a learner, I made an excellent teacher. My classmates frequently praised my ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise manner, often preferring my explanations to those of their teachers. With three years of experience in a teaching environment, primarily in the Foundation Phase, I am now pursuing my Bachelor's degree in Education at Stadio School of Education in South Africa. I am eager to leverage this platform to support learners in their educational journey while continuing to grow as an individual. I am excited about the prospect of contributing to the growth and development of students and look forward to the opportunity to make a positive impact.
