Shailan is a very good tutor. Ensures the student understands the teaching methods applied by him. Very encouraging and gives useful diagrams to help understand tricky concepts. Have seen tremendous progress my son has done since Shailan came on board.
Hi Navendu. Thank you very much for your kind words - much appreciated. Your son really has come along way and I am glad that he has gained knowledge, confidence and technique - he has a very bright future and I'm only too happy to help.
From Clare
Shailan built an excellent rapport with my daughter who responded instantly to his calm and clear method of teaching Maths. Her confidence grew and she went from feeling she would never pass her Maths GCSE to achieving a solid pass. Shailan shared simplified techniques to suit her ability and set doable but challenging homework. He was happy to be available to help any time that was needed. Even helping my older son with his personal statement for Uni. Thank you Shailan for all your input in my children’s future. Much Appreciated.
Hi Clare,
Many thanks for the feedback and that's so great to hear - I'm glad I could be of help.
If they need anymore support or guidance in the future, please don't be shy! More than happy to help and I wish them nothing but success in the future.
From Nishma
Shailan has been working with my daughter and has supported her patiently explaining the topics with example after example to help her understand. He is able to relate to the student making each lesson fulfilling. My daughter always feels like a lot has been achieved at the end of each session. Thank you Shailan.
Hi Nishma. Thanks so much - your words are truly valued and it's great knowing that your daughter is feeling positive and learned after each lesson. I look forward to helping her build her knowledge base even more in the future. It's been really enjoyable so far!
From Samreen
Shai is a brilliant tutor and I could not recommend him highly enough. His calm, professional and caring approach has been beyond helpful for my son, who prior to working with Shai, was very phobic towards Maths. Shai inherently understands his students well and how to bring the best out of them. He is also very supportive and we really valued his great communication with us as parents. Thank you, Shai! We would be lost without you!
Hi Samreen,
Many thanks for your kinds words and it's really really appreciated. It's always a pleasure teaching Yousuf and it's really helped as you have given me the flexibility and put your faith in me. Yousuf will get the grades he wants this year - his work ethic, attitude and confidence has really improved since we started and it will only help him to achieve the best in the future!
From Conor
Shailan worked with my daughter to improve her confidence in her maths ability after a disappointing mock result. He built her faith in her own ability by carefully preparing her for her GCSE. She has reported feeling very confident going into her exams and we thank Shailan for his efforts. We have found him to be friendly, positive, well prepared and effective.
Hi Conor.
Many thanks for your thorough and helpful feedback. I'm so glad that I managed to help your daughter through her exams and she feels as if she has benefited. It was a great pleasure and I wish her all the best of the future!
Best regards Shailan
From Aldrich
An absolutely brilliant tutor who has been helping my son with his A Level Physics. Tutoring is tailored to ensure the weaknesses are fully covered, and my son has made excellent progress in the in last few months that Shailan has been helping him. Highly recommended
Hi Aldrich,
Many thanks for your kind and supportive comments. As ever, I will continue helping your son as he has a lot of potential and I have no doubt he can get the A grades that he needs to thrive in University.
Thanks again Shailan
From Claudia
Shailan is an excellent tutor. He is professional, conscientious, patient and determined for his students to do well. He is well briefed and up to date with exam requirements and expectations. My daughter has already improved immensely in her GCSE maths grade over the last few months. He has given her the confidence she needed. And because of his flexibility and willing to teach other subjects he is also helping with GCSE science. I would highly recommend Shailan.
Hi Claudia.
Many thanks for your kind and detailed comments. Your daughter is a pleasure to teach and really does have a lot of potential - I am just trying my best to extract this from her so that she can progress and push on in further studies. As ever, do let me know if anything is not working well and I am more than happy to adapt my approach & style.
Thanks again, Shailan
From Mimie
Shailan is an excellent tutor. He connects well with his students and builds rapport quickly. He is professional, and reliable. Not only does he know the subjects he teaches my daughter well (i.e. GCSE physics and biology) but he is also able to pass on that knowledge in a way whcih is easy to understand. Shailan is also very flexible and willing to help with other subjects that he teaches when the need arises. I have no hesitation in recommending Shailan as a tutor.
Hi Mimie
Many thanks for your great and insightful feedback. I really appreciate your kind words! Your daughter is a pleasure to teach and although her school has not helped as much as you would like, I do believe she has benefitted from our lessons and grasped all the new concepts at a very rapid rate. She is a bright student and has great potential for the future - I hope we can keep working together to extract that and set her up for further study - I have no doubts that she will be successful going forward!
Do let me know if you need anything else - always happy to help.
Best regards Shailan
From Aslam
Thanks Aslan! You have a very bright son who is a pleasure to teach.
Best regards Shailan
From Reshma
It's still early days, we have only had a few lessons, but so far I am very happy with the tutoring for my son (A Level Physics) and daughter (GCSE Maths).
Shailan is polite, professional and enthusiastic about teaching both children. He is knowledgeable and flexible using different techniques to ensure he gives the students the best/suitable approach to tutoring that works for them. He is very good at building rapport making the lessons enjoyable and interesting which is key to effective learning.
A reliable and proficient tutor, I would highly recommend Shailan!
Hi Reshma,
Thanks very much for your detailed feedback. I am glad you and both your children are enjoying the lessons and progress so far - they are both a pleasure to teach and I'll make sure I can do everything to get them to the highest possible grades!
Best wishes Shailan
From Geetha
My son’s comments: Mr is a good teacher and having being tutored by him for 6 months now, I think it is fair to say that he knows how to teach students and make them understand the content. For Science, he uses the mind map technique, which helps condense concepts into key information. This technique helps for me because it makes me understand the information in chunks, rather than one massive page of notes. For Maths he uses the writing notes technique. Also, for homework he gives you exam questions on the topic you have covered with him. This is helpful because not only are you practising the questions on the topic which you have done but you are also practising the way they will ask you in the exam. In conclusion, Mr is a good tuition teacher and I would recommend anyone to be tutored by him. He will surely change your grade into an A*(9). ––––––––––– My son is quite happy with Mr ’s way of teaching – explains a topic, gives homework on that & test his knowledge out by way of test. Changes his teaching methods to the students’ needs. We have a free hand to customise what we want to cover.
Hi Aditya & Geetha,
Many thanks for your kind words and comments on your experience with me so far. Aditya has been a good student to teach over the last few months and I hope that we can continue the strong development and understanding he has demonstrated over this time.
He is a student with a lot of potential so I am sure that he will be rewarded if he maintains his work ethic and concentration at all times.
As ever, if you feel that I can improve in any way then please do not hesitate to let me know. I am always learning myself and trying to adapt to different students, and would be delighted to help out in anyway I can.
Thanks again and I look forward to the months ahead!
Best Wishes Shailan
From Rehana
Shailan is a very impressive tutor and my son has been able to grasp challenging subject areas at ease as Shailan’s knowledge and methodology are astounding. Shailan gives detailed feedback and appears to know where each strength and weaknesses lies in his student, this makes individual progression very easy and my son has achieved very good results. Shailan is very professional and connects very well with my son, he shows a genuine interest to try the best for his students and to make them excel. He is highly recommended as a tutor for maths and science.
Rehana
Thank you very much for your detailed feedback on your experience so far.
Your son is a bright young man who has a lot of potential and I feel that it is my job as his tutor, to get the best out of him so that he is in the best possible position to succeed further down his life. He is a pleasure to teach and very mature for his age.
As I always mention, if you do have any concerns or see how I could make improvements at any stage, please do let me know. I am always learning new methods and techniques myself so I would welcome any suggestions. I am glad that you are satisfied with my tutoring and I shall keep it up!
Shailan
From Vikki
Shailan has been tutoring my children in year 10 and 11 for nearly 2 months.
He is reliable and very organised. Both children are finding his lessons very helpful and Shailan makes every effort to tailor to their individual needs.
I would recommend Shailan as a tutor.
Hi,
Thank you very much for your feedback and comments. I am glad that both of your children are enjoying and benefitting from my guidance.
They are both a great pleasure to teach, very well disciplined and inquisitive. I look forward to teaching them for their upcoming exams and playing a small part in setting them up well for their future.
Many thanks Shailan
From Nitin
We have used Shailan for three weeks so far, he is punctual, knowledgeable, friendly and seems to be getting on with my daughter , who he is tutoring. My daughter says he knows his stuff and uses a common sense approach. He is good at setting work as well.
Nitin - many thanks for your comments on my tutoring. I would like to add that your daughter is a pleasure to teach, and I feel like she is absorbing all the positive comments and improvements that we are working towards. I hope that she does benefit from my advice and mentoring!
From Anoop
A highly professional individual who connects well with students and a flexible approach to focus on the child's needs. My child has benefited from Shailan's tutorial assistance as they continue with their GCSE preparations.
Anoop - Many thanks for your comments and I am flattered with the feedback. I am glad your daughter's preparations are going well and she is enjoying my lessons! I will do my best to keep this going and improve wherever I can.
Best Wishes, Shailan
From Kalpna
Reliable and works well with students. My son enjoys learning with Shailen
Thanks for the feedback Kalpna. I am glad your son enjoys his lessons and I will try my best to make sure he continues with this success and positive, hard-working mentality.
From Kapil
At first impressions, Shailan is very well motivated and determined at what he does. He enjoys to educate and learn in different ways in which he can use to help people more-so than they require.
Having had Shailan for a couple of sessions, I have learnt new ways of making my learning much more simple and easier. For example, 'working backwards' when tackling a difficult question. Shailan uses modern applications to apply his teaching to his students which is very beneficial, as it has helped me to understand what is actually being taught. This, I feel, makes me intrigued to want to learn more about Physics beyond A-Level. More-so, his help and guidance has made me feel more confident about my upcoming exams.
Shailan heavily focuses on exam-type questions, by setting homework from past papers. This has helped me very much as I am getting confident with the type of standard my answers should be. In-turn, it has allowed me to become familiar with the type of questions that are going to be thrown at me, so when I do sit my exam paper, I do not get overly worried and nervous.
For some constructive feedback for Shailan; I would suggest that he would go over very briefly about the content that was covered in the previous session. (When starting a new session). This is to allow myself and other students to re-jog their memory and to go over any misunderstandings that there may haven been.
Above all, Shailan is a very good tutor and I would recommend anyone to choose him as your tutor. Not only is Shailan a good tutor but also a friend!
;)
Kapil
Hi Kapil,
Many thanks for your feedback regarding my tutoring approach and constructive comments. I am glad that you are finding it effective and studying well.
Your feedback is very thorough and it makes me happy to hear that my techniques and methods are working well on a student. As I mention time and time again in our lessons, confidence and self-belief is one of the most important traits to exam success - so keep it up!
Thanks for the recommendation.
Best wishes, Shailan
From Ailish
Shailan worked with our son in the run up to his GCSE exams this year. He was extremely professional, reliable and courteous. He took the time after each session to e mail an update of how each it went and what he covered in the slotted time. Our son liked Shailan very much and his style suited him. In particular he felt that his approach gave him the confidence on how to deal with exams, providing a structured approach to papers as well as focussing on his weaker areas. Shailan is very knowledgeable in his subjects. As a result our son got through his exams in a calm, focused and relaxed manner. I would recommend Shailan without hesitation.
Thanks a lot Ailish - that is some great feedback and I am sure Ryan will go on to do bigger and better things. He was a very energetic young man and a real pleasure to teach. Above all I believe that the best thing I can do for anyone is pass on my knowledge and experiences of exams that I've had, so that the next generation can learn and thrive!
From Shibani
Shailan is an excellent tutor with an impressive academic background and great teaching skills. My son, who is quite fussy, fully engages with Shailan and finds his tutoring really helpful as he is kind and patient, has answers to all questions, explains difficult concepts in a clear and easy to understand way, gives the right amount of homework, and his teaching style is thorough and effective, ensuring the student has a strong foundation. He is enthusiastic but also relaxed, with a commendable work ethic and a natural talent for teaching and instilling confidence in the student. He is also an inspiring role model, having been a brilliant student and with a promising career. I fully believe that Shailan will bring out the best in my son.
Hi Shibani - thank you so much for your feedback. I have really enjoyed teaching Rahul and I feel like I do engage with him very well - Its great that he is taking my advice to achieve the best results because as I said, it is about building Rahul up for the best possible future and I get real pleasure in teaching him. Let's push these last few months for those A* and A grades.
