Experienced Science tutor
Hi, I’m a Master’s graduate in Biomedical Science from the University of Glasgow, and I’m passionate about helping students achieve their academic goals in a way that’s both fun and effective.Growing up, I found school challenging—balancing coursework with extracurricular activities made it difficult to maintain high grades. However, once I reached university, I developed better study strategies that helped me excel and achieve top marks. This experience has shaped my approach to tutoring: I focus on understanding concepts, not just memorizing theory. I believe that when students grasp the why b...

Libbiksha C
We’ve been really pleased with the support our daughter has received from Libby. She is patient, encouraging, and explains things in a way that really clicks for her. Her confidence in science has grown so much already, and she actually looks forward to the sessions each week. Although early days, It’s been wonderful to see her progress. We are thrilled to have found Libby and we would definitely recommend her!

Aishat A
Aishat is a great tutor and we’ve been really pleased with the support she’s given my son. He has weekly GCSE Science (AQA) tutoring with her, and she has taken the time to really understand his learning habits. He’s completely comfortable with her, which has made a big difference to his confidence. Aishat is always punctual, responds promptly to messages, and keeps me well informed about my son’s progress. What’s been especially reassuring is that topics she’s covered with him have already come up in his mock exams, and he was able to answer those questions confidently. We’re very happy with the progress he’s making and would happily recommend her.

Amira K
Anabelle really enjoys her science lessons with Amira. She is becoming more confident after every session and often tells us how much she learns in just one hour, which is amazing to see. We are so glad we found Amira. Anabelle is currently in Year 9 and is considering taking Triple Science for her GCSEs, so starting now and continuing next year feels like the perfect approach. Amira has been a fantastic tutor so far. If Anabelle needs some support in maths once she reaches Year 10, I will definitely look to book lessons with Amira again, if she has availability.
