Hi! I am a tutor specialising in English Literature, History, and Psychology, currently studying Human, Social, Political Sciences at the University of Cambridge. I personally also love arts and illustration; and so I aim to also work as an illustrator in the holidays during my degree. I teach Psychology to ALevel and GCSE standard, and English Literature for KS3, GCSE and Alevels. (Edexcel). I also teach History from KS3, AQA GCSE, and Edexcel A-level as well. For all my students, I aim to encourage a love of learning and create a deep understanding of the importance of education. I enjoy seeing students progress and gain self-motivation and self esteem, as I believe that every student has potential and needs to believe in themselves to unlock it. Many students feel as if they are not 'intelligent' enough to do well, and feel ashamed to ask for help. I want to stress to all my students that there is no such thing as failure; only redirection, and that there are many different forms of intelligence. Every student is intelligent in different ways - creative, emotional, or logical, even if the mainstream idea of intelligence does not immediately reflect their personal strengths. It is important for students to understand that grades do not define their self worth, but are merely tools to unlock new paths for their life, and are not the be all and end all of their existence. Learning should encourage a student to be an all-rounder and introduce critical thinking and analytical perception into their toolkit for life. This is why I stress the importance of a good work-life balance to my students and try and help them make links between what they are learning and how it relates to the world around them and their personal, primary interests. After achieving A*A*A in my A-levels (English Literature, Psychology, and History) at St Clement Danes School, I am now studying HSPS (Human, Social, Political Science) at the University of Cambridge. I have tutored students in English Literature, helping them understand themes, structure and language through personalised resources, word banks and guided reading. My work in school mentoring programmes, including Reading Buddies and Franklin Scholars, has given me valuable experience supporting younger students academically and emotionally. I have helped students with lower reading ages gain confidence and progress to harder books, and I have acted as a supportive mentor for pupils facing challenges at home or in school, ensuring they always felt heard and safe. These experiences have strengthened my ability to adapt to different needs, lead group sessions and create an inclusive, encouraging dynamic. I have also had significant experience with SEND (ADHD and ADD) kids and I tailor lessons to their individual needs, ensuring that everyone can access learning at their own pace. For students who struggle with reading and dyslexia, I always make sure to have extra material with double-spacing and more accessible fonts, so that no student feels left out and are ready to commit to learning fully. I also am extremely confident teaching both A-level and GCSE Psychology, as I self-studied GCSE Psychology in 6 months and achieved a 9. I am well-versed in examiner reports and mark schemes; and can aid students in understanding structure and content to get top grades in their exams. My strongest teaching experience comes from independently establishing and coaching my school’s World Scholars Cup programme. I created lesson plans from scratch, developed resources across a wide academic curriculum and trained eight students in both debate and subject knowledge. Through structured sessions tailored to each student's learning style and consistent emotional support, my teams went on to win 89 medals and 12 trophies, progressing through multiple global rounds and ultimately qualifying for the final round at Yale University. Alongside coaching, I managed all logistics, balanced communication between parents, teachers and students, and ensured every participant felt confident, organised and motivated. My teaching philosophy is rooted in structure, empathy and tailored guidance. I always begin by understanding each student’s learning style and identifying the areas they struggle with most, because focusing on these areas leads to faster and more meaningful progress. I create detailed lesson plans supported by a bank of ready-made materials and teach students not just what to learn but how to learn. I use techniques such as blurting, mind maps and flashcards and encourage active participation, independent thinking and self-motivated learning. Regular check-ins allow me to monitor their emotional wellbeing and academic progress, ensuring they always feel supported, confident and connected to the learning process.

Levels & Subjects: Primary: Mathematics GCSE: Mathematics , Chemistry (AQA, EDEXCEL, OCR) Experience : Taught GCSE and Primary Maths for 2 years Hello, my name is Pelumi and I recently graduated from a Masters in Investment Banking at Queen Mary University of London. The reason I chose to study this because it included using a lot of technical and problem-solving methods, it also included a lot of Mathematics which was one of my favourite subjects at school. I would say Algebra is one of my strong areas and I completed the Level 3 Edexcel Algebra award in secondary school. When I teach I primarily use a lot of worksheets and exam-style questions which will help the student improve on the subject and feel better prepared for any upcoming exams. If a student is struggling to understand a concept , I use diagrams, videos and allow them to have more practise until they are comfortable with the topics. Preferred subject: Maths Preferred student age group: Primary/GCSE My hobbies include reading, travelling, drawing, exercising and I love food and music!

Teaching available options KS2: Maths KS3: Science and Maths GCSE/ iGCSE: Chemistry, Biology and Maths A-level: Chemistry Exam Board teaching history: AQA, Edexcel, OCR Hello! My name is Aisha I studied Biology, Chemistry, and Sociology at A-level and am currently an undergraduate Optometry student, which keeps me deeply engaged with scientific concepts on a daily basis. This strong academic foundation allows me to teach both subjects with clarity, confidence, and real-world relevance. I am a dedicated and compassionate tutor that has a heavy background in teaching students Biology, Chemistry, Science and Maths. I focus on helping students build a strong understanding of the topics they may be struggling followed by sufficient and plentiful exam application practise to help build confidence for exams. All students learn differently, so I tailor my methods to suit each student’s unique needs, ensuring they leave with a solid understanding of the subject they initially struggled with. Whether a student needs help building foundational skills, catching up, or reaching higher levels of achievement, I create a supportive environment where they feel encouraged, understood, and motivated. My style is interactive and flexible—I use strategies to make challenging concepts easier to grasp and lessons more engaging. From breaking down harder problems to celebrating small wins, I focus on building confidence and independence in every learner. I'm patient and understanding, always taking the time to listen, adapt, and ensure my students feel safe to ask questions and make mistakes as part of the learning process. Qualifications: Optometry Student Certificate of Higher education with modules: -chemistry (A) -Maths (A) - Biology (B) A-levels: Chemistry (B) Sociology (B) Biology (C) GSCEs: Biology (8) Chemistry (8) Physics (8) Maths (7) English Literature (8) English Language (8) Geography RS Business My in-depth understanding of these subjects allows me to explain even the most challenging topics in a way that makes sense to students. I focus heavily on building core understanding, improving exam technique, and boosting confidence—especially in areas students often find overwhelming, like mechanisms, reaction pathways, and applied problem-solving. I’ve previously worked as a tutor online and completed a Teaching and Mentoring Programme in person specifically designed for supporting GCSE Chemistry students. My teaching style is clear, structured, and supportive. I make complex ideas simple and use relatable examples to help students connect with the material. Whether a student is aiming for top grades or trying to gain confidence in the basics, I provide a patient, focused, and motivating environment for them to learn and succeed. I want students to have a tutor that understands their needs and and does everything possible to help them get to where they need to be. I hope to be that tutor to all of my students!
