Chloe B
Enthusiastic English tutor

Mustafa S
Friendly English and Biology tutor
As a medical student turned tutor, I employ a student-friendly approach to make complex topics in maths and biology accessible. My interactive teaching methods involve visual aids and step-by-step problem-solving with a heavy focus on past exam papers. Exam papers have been the key to my success and these will always be crucial to obtain high scoring results. Therefore working through exam papers and questions together will be the pillar to all my lessons. Nonetheless, I foster a collaborative environment that ensures not just understanding but also retention through whatever method is most comfortable...
