Ridhi Kotecha

As an enthusiastic educator, published poet, and lifelong learner, I am passionate about inspiring individuals and helping them unlock their full potential — whether it’s by supporting students through academic challenges, coaching the art of communication, or empowering professionals to advance in their careers.

Since 2018, I have worked as a Private Tutor and Coach and hold a First-Class Combined Honours in BA in English & Drama from the University of Exeter and a PGCE in Secondary English from King’s College London. My teaching journey spans public and private schools across three continents, enriching my approach with a broad, culturally informed perspective. Across the various subjects I teach, from English to Maths, to Drama, I tailor my methods to engage learners of all ages and abilities, ensuring accessibility and meaningful progress for everyone.

Most recently, I worked as a Learning Facilitator at The Natural History Museum in London ( ), where I delivered and developed a broad range of engaging educational programs, workshops, and shows tailored to diverse audiences. I also led the Community Outreach and Youth programs, creating accessible, hands-on learning experiences that inspired visitors and families to become advocates for our planet.

In our first lesson, I will conduct a thorough assessment tailored to your/ your child’s exam board, current grades, and interests. This enables me to design a personalised scheme of work for each unit or subject, which I share with you and/or your parent or guardian. I also create customised grade trackers so progress can be continuously monitored and celebrated. For more details on my lesson planning and approach, please get in touch.

Learning to me means more than passing exams or reaching your targets; it’s about transforming how you communicate, connect, and carry yourself in every aspect of life. If you’re ready to invest fully in your growth, I’m here to guide, challenge, and celebrate your journey every step of the way!
