Aminah

As a University of Cambridge Medicine graduate and UCL Pharmacy graduate, I bring a strong interdisciplinary background to science education, with expertise in medicine, pharmacology, and biomedical sciences. I have over 8 years of tutoring experience and 3,000+ hours of teaching students aged 5 to 32 in subjects including Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Psychology, and university-level health sciences.

I achieved 100% in four A Level exams and ranked top of my clinical cohort at Cambridge, reflecting my commitment to academic excellence. I specialise in helping students master content, build confidence, and develop effective revision strategies to excel in exams.

I teach online via Zoom, Skype, and Teams using interactive tools and a drawing tablet to ensure engaging, high-quality lessons. I hold an enhanced DBS check and am happy to provide references from students and parents.

Tutoring Experience

With extensive teaching experience spanning various levels, I embarked on my tutoring journey at the age of 17, initially guiding students through GCSEs. Over time, my commitment to education led me to where I am today—conducting university seminars and mentoring students for university applications.

Between the years 2020 and 2022, I tutored 12 A Level students; 9 achieved all As and A*s due to my approach with challenging assignments. I've also prepared students for 11+ exams and offer specialised guidance for Medicine applications (undergraduate and postgraduate). As a medical student myself, I provide valuable insights for a successful application process.

Tutoring Approach

I am here to make the student's academic life easier. My main objective is to alleviate the challenges and stresses of studying for students by building upon their existing strengths and comfort zones. Recognising the complexities that accompany learning, I, as a fellow student, am dedicated to providing practical insights and strategies that not only prepare students comprehensively for exams but also alleviate the stress associated with them. I will identify and address knowledge gaps, all the while reinforcing current understanding through targeted homework and exam questions. By tailoring my approach to each student's unique needs, I ensure a holistic learning experience that nurtures confidence, competence, and success.
