Qasim Ahmad

Hello! I'm Qasim, a qualified UK teacher with a PGCE in Biology, Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and an MSci in Biomedical Science from the University of Birmingham.

I have experience teaching Science across KS3–KS5 and tutoring Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics and English. I've worked in secondary schools, tutoring centres and specialist education settings, supporting learners of different ages and abilities, including those with SEND, autism, ADHD and EHCPs.

What are my lessons like?

My lessons are structured, interactive and personalised to your individual needs. I begin by identifying your strengths, areas for improvement and learning goals, then adapt the content and pace accordingly.

I typically follow an **"I Do, We Do, You Do"** approach: first, I explain and demonstrate a concept; next, we practise it together; and finally, you apply your knowledge independently.

I use clear explanations, visual resources, real-world examples, quizzes, exam-style questions and regular feedback to make difficult topics easier to understand. For exam preparation, I also focus on examination techniques, command words and developing confidence under timed conditions.

My experience includes teaching GCSE Science, supporting post-16 Biology and delivering Functional Skills English and Mathematics to adult learners with additional needs.

I believe learning should be engaging, supportive and challenging without becoming overwhelming. I encourage questions, celebrate progress, and adapt my teaching so every student can build confidence and independence.

Whether you're preparing for exams, catching up on missed learning or aiming to achieve higher grades, I'll help you build the knowledge, skills and confidence to reach your goals.
