Luka A.

Hello! My name is Erin, I am currently a first year medical student at the University of Birmingham. As a tutor, my main aim is to quickly determine a students weaknesses, then create a dedicated study plan to help them improve in those areas. I believe that active recall, spaced repetition, and lots and lots of past paper questions - are the key to success! I am well versed in tutoring students of all ages; I have tutored various students ranging from ages 6 to 16 in a variety of different settings. I am also experienced in entrance exam tutoring. Having sat several entrance exams over my lifetime, I understand how to make a study plan that is both time efficient and effective, and how to utilise this study plan effectively. I have previously mentored students who wish to study medicine through UCAS, entrance exam and interview preparation; several of them currently study at top universities, including Oxford and Cambridge! In my spare time, I am a highly creative person - I frequently attend dance classes, I music direct/conduct my university choir, and I scrapbook! I also love to read :) Currently attending the University of Birmingham Medical School - 1st year, Medicine. Attended a top London Grammar school; where I achieved 10 A*s (Grades 8-9) at GCSE level, and 3 As at A level in Biology, Chemistry, and Psychology. In addition to educational qualifications, I also study the piano; I have completed my Grade 8 and am currently working towards my diploma in Music Performance!

French : Advanced Greek: Intermediate. SEND Experience Have worked with students who have ADHD. I have also worked with a terminally-ill child with learning issues due to memory impairment. Preferred Student Age Groups Am happy to tutor primary/ GCSE/ A-Level, as well as students or adults who have English as a Second Language. About me I love to travel, explore new places and meet people from different cultures. I spent ten years living in Athens, Greece where I worked as a private tutor: teaching TEFL to a wide variety of people - from complete beginners to students wishing to take Cambridge Proficiency exams in order to access UK universities. I have a BA Hons degree in Modern Languages: English/French with a module in Classical Greek Language and Literature. I believe in stress-free lessons , and learning in a relaxed setting. As a tutor I am not there to add pressure, but to help take pressure off. In terms of hobbies, I love reading, writing stories, and watching Turkish TV dramas. I am also a huge tennis fan. Last, but not least, I enjoy all forms of sugar - especially cake! Aside from my degree, I am qualified to teach TEFL. I really enjoy working with those who don't have English as a first language. It's a thrill to help them improve their speaking and listening - as well as reading and writing skills. It's wonderful to see them grow in confidence when expressing themselves in English. Furthermore, I am qualified to do proofreading. This fits in well with teaching English. I also have a certificate in Counselling Skills.

Hi, I’m Ibrahim, a dedicated GCSE Maths and Science tutor with over 4 years of tutoring experience. I am currently studying Mechanical Engineering at the University of Birmingham, where I apply the same analytical and problem-solving skills that I teach to my students. I have worked with students of all abilities, helping them build confidence, improve their understanding of difficult topics, and achieve their target grades. My lessons are tailored to each student’s needs, focusing on clear explanations, exam technique, and plenty of practice questions to ensure they feel fully prepared for their exams. I specialise in breaking down complex topics into simple, easy-to-understand steps, making even challenging concepts accessible and engaging. I create a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and developing their confidence. Many of my students have gone on to achieve top GCSE grades, including Grade 9s. Alongside improving academic performance, I aim to help students develop strong study habits, problem-solving skills, and confidence that will benefit them throughout their education. Whether you’re looking to strengthen your understanding of key topics, improve your exam technique, or work towards the highest grades, I’d be happy to help you achieve your goals. I am currently studying Mechanical Engineering at the University of Birmingham, where I apply advanced mathematics and science to solve real-world engineering problems. I achieved AAB at A-Level in Mathematics, Biology, and Chemistry, and predominantly A* grades at GCSE, including top grades in Maths and Science. Alongside my studies, I have been tutoring GCSE Maths and Science for over four years, helping students of all abilities improve their confidence and achieve their target grades. My lessons focus on clear explanations, building genuine understanding, and developing strong exam technique through tailored support and exam-style practice.

A BEng Mechanical Engineering student from The University of Dundee who has taken A-level examinations before. I prefer mastery of concepts with the ability to employ knowledge to solve problems. I have experience with real-world engineering projects, as I am running an IMechE-affiliated aeronautical society where we develop autonomous drones for the UAS challenge. I have self-studied my A-levels, which comprise AS and A2-level Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. As a result of this solo endeavor, I have become very familiar with discipline and time management. It has helped me develop a growth mindset. I'm currently in my 2nd year. I have received straight A's during my first year transcript and am projected to maintain that grade. I employ this knowledge and critical thinking extensively for my real-world engineering projects, which aim to develop UAV's to be competitive at the national level.
