I'm a dedicated tutor with genuine enthusiasm for helping students excel in English, Maths, and Italian. Having completed my own GCSEs and A-Levels in England and currently studying at the University of Bristol, I understand the pressures students face and know how to make learning feel less overwhelming. My previous tutoring experience has taught me that every student learns differently, which is why I tailor each lesson to individual needs and learning styles. Whether you're struggling with algebra, need conversation practice in Italian, or want to improve your English grammar, I believe learning should be engaging and confidence-building rather than intimidating. I'm committed to creating a supportive environment where you feel comfortable making mistakes and celebrating progress. My goal is to help you not just understand the concepts, but to use your knowledge confidently in exams and real-world situations. I'm patient, encouraging, and always happy to explain concepts in different ways until they click I completed my GCSEs and A-Levels in England at St Benedict's School in Ealing with strong results, achieving A*AA in Spanish, Mathematics, and Economics at A-Level. This led to my acceptance at the University of Bristol where I am currently studying Spanish and Italian. My language studies have deepened my understanding of grammar structures and language acquisition. As Italian is my mother tongue - spoken at home and during regular visits to Italy - I have native-level fluency and cultural understanding that I can share with students. My strong mathematical foundation, combined with a natural ability to explain complex concepts clearly, allows me to help students build confidence in problem-solving. I've always enjoyed breaking down challenging topics into manageable steps, making them accessible and understandable. Additionally, I hold a 120-hour advanced TEFL certification, which has equipped me with specialized teaching techniques for language instruction.

Experienced Science Tutor | IGCSE & A-Level Hi! I’m Riya Gaba, a qualified and passionate Science tutor with extensive experience teaching IGCSE Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, as well as A-Level Chemistry. I specialise in building strong conceptual understanding, exam confidence, and excellent results. My teaching aligns with major UK boards in I hold a Master’s degree in Chemistry, along with a teaching qualification equivalent to the UK’s PGCE. My academic training has equipped me with both strong subject knowledge and effective pedagogical skills to support students across Key Stage 3, GCSE/IGCSE, and A-Level Science.

I've always enjoyed maths, which inspired me to pursue a degree in Economics and Finance. I adore the logical reasoning underlying these courses and enjoy applying them to real-world situations, particularly in physics. I believe that with the appropriate direction and technique, anyone can thrive in these areas. My teaching technique is based on recognising each student's unique needs and learning style, which helps to make the content more relatable and interesting. By rigorously adhering to the specification and marking schemes, I ensure that students understand exactly what is required to succeed.

My career includes extensive experience in calculating risk for North American Commercial Real Estate, where I specialised in loan underwriting and corporate expansion as well as underwriting in the digital payments world for EU and British companies.

Subjects Taught Mathematics University Admissions: TMUA, MAT, STEP A-Level: Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Further Mathematics GCSE/IGCSE: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Double Science, Science, Mathematics KS3: Science My motivation in life is to develop intellectual skills that will allow me to make a difference where it matters. I have worked as a Data Analyst for a year, which has been a fulfilling experience creating dashboards in Tableau and utilising advanced functionalities in Excel. However, the time has come for me to move onto new endeavours. I plan to spend the next year or two contributing to a business that prepares detailed past paper solutions for the challenging STEP Mathematics examinations, while also developing new IT skills. It is during this time that I intend to educate others in Mathematics and Science. 09/2021 to 09/2022 MSc Health Data Science London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Modules include Genomics, Survival Analysis, and Bayesian Statistics. Dissertation classified diagnoses using a PyTorch machine learning model. 10/2016 to 06/2019 BA Mathematics Girton College, University of Cambridge Modules include Vector Calculus, Quantum Mechanics, and Mathematical Biology.
