My son needed some support with physics GCSEs. Nia is really good at communicating to young people and breaking down difficult concepts to make them easy to understand. Nia helped my son's overall understanding and confidence. Physics went from being his weakest science subject to his best in a couple of months with her help. I would have no hesitation in recommending Nia!

Wafaa K
Having Wafaa as my AQA A-level Physics tutor finally allowed me to access my full potential. As many other physicists, I was stuck in the boundary between grades Cs and Bs and I knew I could do better, but I was completely lost. Each session served both as a lesson in physics and as a lesson in critical thinking, which is so much more important than I anticipated. They've helped me actually understand all the tricky topics, rather than just memorise them. Each session was tailored to me and my needs, even if I needed help in a Maths paper! In the end I went up from a grade C in my year 12 mocks to an A on results day, which wouldn't have been possible otherwise. The problem-solving skills and ability to break down large concepts will stick with me throughout university. I could not recommend a tutor enough.
