My lessons are designed to be personalised, structured, and highly supportive, ensuring that every student regardless of age or ability can learn comfortably and confidently. I begin each teaching journey by understanding the student’s goals, current level, and preferred way of learning. This allows me to create a lesson plan that is truly tailored, rather than one-size-fits-all.

During lessons, I break down complex ideas into simple, clear steps and use a combination of visual aids, examples, practice exercises, and discussion to help students grasp the material fully. I encourage active engagement, asking questions and checking understanding throughout, so that students feel involved and comfortable expressing their thoughts. My sessions maintain a calm, friendly atmosphere where students feel supported and never rushed.

As a medical doctor with experience working as an SEN tutor, I have a strong background in teaching learners who require additional patience, reassurance, or specialised support. I am skilled at adapting explanations, slowing the pace, or restructuring content to match the student’s needs. Many of my learners appreciate having a tutor who is approachable, understanding, and able to explain topics from different angles until everything makes sense.

My lessons for school-age learners often include reading comprehension, writing skills, grammar support, communication strategies, and exam preparation. For adults, I provide support in English language skills, academic writing, workplace communication, and confidence-building.
Every session ends with a brief review to reinforce learning and plan the next steps. My goal is not only to teach the subject but to build confidence, independence, and a genuine enjoyment of learning.
If you are looking for a patient, structured, and personalised learning experience, my lessons provide a safe, encouraging space where you can progress at your own pace.
