Expert English teacher English English
Hello! I'm an experienced English tutor with a passion for helping students succeed.

Nadeem A
We are incredibly grateful to have found such a wonderful English tutor for our son. Before starting lessons, he struggled to stay engaged and lacked confidence in his abilities. However, thanks to the tutor’s patience, creativity, and genuine passion for teaching, everything has changed.
The tutor has a unique way of making lessons fun, interactive, and tailored to our son’s interests. Instead of seeing English as a chore, he now looks forward to every session and even practices on his own without being asked. His confidence in reading, writing, and speaking has improved significantly, and most importantly, he has developed a real love for the subject.

Iman D
My son hasn't had the best experience in English at school and his grade is predicted to be several grades below his other subjects. We are just 3 sessions into tuition and Iman has really helped steer him back on course. He has been patient, knows exactly how to help my son, and I am really impressed that he will take the time out of our sessions to mark any practice questions my son has sent him and offer feedback. I really like how he has clewrly explained exactly what examiners are looking for in responses. I'd happily recommend Iman, particularly if you or your child needs boosting to a passing grade. My son is very happy with his tuition and so am I!
