Advert description
Empowering HE students (undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral/PhD) to achieve their academic potential. With 20+ years of experience and a track record of supporting 1500+ students, I specialise in study skills tutoring that is tailored to individual neurotypes.

I equip students with essential academic skills, including academic writing proficiency, effective reading strategies, advanced research techniques, efficient time management, robust organisational skills, comprehensive note-making methods, and accurate referencing practices, etc. My support is non-subject specific and focuses on empowering students to be independent learners. Areas I cover:

Breaking tasks into manageable steps
Note-taking and reading strategies

Improving Academic Confidence
Identifying and leveraging learning strengths
Addressing anxiety related to academic work
Building motivation and resilience
Enhancing Cognitive Skills

Outstanding tutoring. Zakia offers structured, engaging, and flexible sessions tailored to each student's needs and designed to support academic achievement. She was one of the few people who taught me that I could succeed academically, regardless of my dyslexia and ADHD. Zakia is professional and knowledgeable, yet so personable that I felt able to overcome any academic challenge. The skills I learned in my sessions have proved invaluable and have contributed significantly to my academic success. Thanks to her tutoring, I have accomplished things that once felt unachievable.
