Hi, I'm Saakshi! I'm a Neuroscience Master's graduate (King's College London) with experience supporting diverse learners. I break down complex ideas clearly, build confidence, and help students develop strong study skills and academic independence. I studied BSc Neuroscience at the University of Sussex before completing an MSc in Psychology & Neuroscience of Mind Body interface at King’s College London, where I achieved a Distinction in my thesis. My studies were highly research‑intensive, giving me strong skills in critical thinking, data analysis, and translating complex scientific ideas into clear, accessible explanations. Throughout my degrees, I developed a deep understanding of cognitive processes, mental health, and evidence‑based learning — all of which shape the way I support students today.

I’m currently studying Health Sciences at the University of Worcester, progressing onto a Physiotherapy degree, which has strengthened my understanding of how people learn, communicate, and develop confidence. I completed my GCSEs and A-levels at a grammar school, where I built strong academic foundations and effective study habits that I now help students develop themselves. Alongside my studies, I’ve played rugby, which has developed my teamwork, discipline, and leadership skills — qualities I bring into my tutoring style. I also have ADHD and dyslexia, which has given me a strong understanding that every student learns differently, allowing me to adapt my teaching approach to suit individual learning styles and support students who may lack confidence or feel overwhelmed. I also have a strong interest in music production, which has helped me develop creativity, patience, and problem-solving skills. I aim to create a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and building confidence in their abilities. I attended Gravesend Grammar School after successfully passing the 11+ entrance examination, where I studied from Year 7 through to Year 11 before continuing into the Sixth Form. At GCSE level, I completed Higher Mathematics, English Language and English Literature, Geography, Physical Education, Business Studies, French, and Higher Combined Science. I achieved Grade 7s and strong passes across my core subjects, including the sciences, English, Geography, and Physical Education, with Grade 5s in my remaining subjects. I then completed A-levels in Biology, Psychology, and Physical Education, developing a strong understanding of human science, behaviour, and performance. Following my A-levels, I applied to the University of Worcester, where I am currently in my first year studying Health Sciences and progressing onto a Physiotherapy degree pathway.

Ich heiße Anna und studiere Internationale Wirtschaft auf Englisch an der ELTE-Universität in Budapest. Mathematik hat mich schon immer fasziniert, besonders das Erklären und Weitergeben von Wissen. Deshalb habe ich mich entschieden, als Tutorin zu arbeiten. Mein Ziel ist es, dir zu zeigen, dass Mathe nicht nur lösbar, sondern auch spannend sein kann! Mir ist es besonders wichtig, komplexe Aufgaben verständlich in kleine Schritte aufzuteilen, damit du sie leichter nachvollziehen kannst. Gemeinsam finden wir den besten Weg, damit du Mathe nicht nur verstehst, sondern auch Spaß daran hast! Ich habe mein Abitur an einem Gymnasium mit erhöhtem Mathematik-Niveau absolviert. Leider hatte ich einen Mathelehrer, der nur ungern auf die Schwierigkeiten seiner Schüler einging. Doch anstatt aufzugeben, brachte ich mir den Stoff selbst bei – oft stundenlang zu Hause – und bestand mein Abitur mit großem Erfolg. Das eigenständige Lernen hat mir nicht nur viel Spaß gemacht, sondern auch mein Interesse daran geweckt, anderen zu helfen. Meine erste "Schülerin" war meine Schwester, die sich oft in den einzelnen Schritten eines Problems verlor. Durch sie habe ich gelernt, scheinbar einfache Konzepte noch klarer und verständlicher zu erklären. Später unterstützte ich auch mehrere Mitschüler dabei, ihre Mathematiknoten zu verbessern. Derzeit helfe ich einer Studentin an der Universität in Mathematik, und bereits nach wenigen Einheiten sind deutliche Fortschritte in ihren Ergebnissen zu sehen.

Currently studying (MEng) Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering at the University of Sheffield, I am a dedicated Maths and Physics tutor, with around an 2-3 years total experience in person and online, helping students build confidence and achieve top grades. My approach combines the structured discipline of established learning centres, such as Kumon (where I was a tutor for more than 2 years) and the flexible touch of indepedent 1 on 1 tutoring. I achieved a Grade 9 in Maths and all Sciences in my GCSEs and got an A in Physics at A level. I have also had experience tutoring 11+ briefly, and have passed the 11+ myself in 2017. As a student who completed his GCSE exams 3 years ago, I can provide tailored advice and the most up-to-date tips and tricks to help students flourish and achieve top marks. I went to a selective state-grammar school based on 11+ scores called Lawrence Sheriff School for all of my secondary school years and 6th form. I completed my GCSEs and A-Levels here achieving almost all A*/A scores in every subject. Currently, I am at University studying (MEng) Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering at the University of Sheffield.
