Honestly in year 9 I started off predicted 3s and 2s across my GCSEs by my teachers and I remember feeling so lost and upset because I also had (and still have ) high dreams of becoming a surgeon but I worked hard and achieved grades 7+. So I understand the struggles of trying to understand tricky concepts that I thought I was never able to understand ,so I know how to help students improve quickly.

My lessons - From £12/hr (first lesson free ??)
Wednesday + Fridays (6–10pm) and on Sundays I am available.

Lesson dynamics-
Each session starts with a quick recap of key topics, followed by practice questions to check understanding. I focus on exam-style questions, past papers, and simple explanations of hard to understand concepts. My lessons are interactive — I encourage my students to explain back to me what they’ve learned, which also boosts memory and confidence.

My approach-
I break down difficult topics into easy-to-understand steps. I use mind maps, diagrams, and worked examples (visual + written) so concepts are easy to remember. I adapt the lesson style depending on the student — whether they need exam drills, revision planning, or confidence building.

I’ve recently sat my own GCSEs, so I understand what the exams are asking and what strategies really work I also know common mistakes students make and can guide them to avoid them. I’ve also helped classmates improve their marks using my revision methods.
