I would look to offer comprehensive tutoring for any STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subject, as I excell in this field. However i also studied a wide variety of other subjects and achieved competitive grades for all, allowing me to be able to tutor other subjects also. I achieved both Level 4 in mathematics and sciences at GCSE level. I then went on to study chemistry at AS level and biology, maths and further maths at alevel to which I was predicted- BA*B respectively. Currently, I am an advanced engineering apprentice which allows me to apply my mathematic flair in my job everyday. I have a passion for chess, I have been playing chess since I was 5 when I was taught by my grandad! I practice playing chess at least once a day however I am still to find a worthy opponent... could it be you?! I have played piano for 10 years and saxophone for 5, I am very pssionate about both of these instruments and would love to pass my knowledge onto an aspiring mozart! Further to this, I have a full DBS and I am experienced with children with additional needs including: FASD, GDD, ASD, ADHD, ODD, PDA and many more, as my family fosters SEN children. Thankyou for taking the time to read my post :)

Excellent tutor. My daughter was very nervous but after the session with Anna she was really happy and excited for the next session. Anna communicated very well with me via the messages and I highly recommend her.

Faiza is incredible with my son. He is autistic and has ADHD so concentration is a challenge for him but she manages to keep him engaged and gets everything he needs to know in the session. Really highly recommend.
— Kelly CHired Faiza for Tutoring
Ben is a very intelligent and bright teenager. He is very professional, has strong communication skills, is well prepared for his lessons, has strong listening skills and is very mature. My twin boys enjoy having their lessons with him very much. I would highly recommend Ben as a tutor.
— Angelina MHired Benjamin for Tutoring
Arrived promptly on time and was very friendly. She prepared a quiz beforehand and a PowerPoint on Macbeth with many quotes from the play and made the session interesting for my daughter. She was very patient and understanding if my daughter was unsure on something. If you choose her, she will tailor her lessons to fit your child’s needs. She showed a keen interest in the subject. Now my daughter is more confident in her abilities. Would recommend!
