Vetted Tutor

Personally Interviewed

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge. They have extensive tutoring experience with a track record of success, helping students achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Experience

I have over six years of tutoring and mentoring experience, working with students across IB, A-Level, AP, and GCSE/IGCSE curricula in subjects such as Psychology, Biology, Chemistry, and English. My expertise extends to personalized guidance for college admissions and interview preparation, helping students craft compelling applications and excel in interviews. I also have experience mentoring undergraduates, providing academic and career advice to support their studies and future aspirations.

Tutoring Approach

My tutoring approach is student-centered, starting with understanding what the student wants to focus on within their syllabus and preparing a personalized plan that includes topics, subject theory, and exam techniques. I introduce the structure of each lesson, using resources like videos, RevisionDojo, BioNinja, YouTube, and my own study notes to make learning interactive and engaging. To ensure retention, I incorporate exam-style questions and revisit key concepts regularly. Building trust is a priority for me; I create a safe, judgment-free environment where students feel supported and confident, fostering a positive dynamic that encourages their academic growth.

Testimonials

"I was just writing to give some feedback on my tutoring sessions with Leila after I received my results. I was able to achieve a level 6 in psychology which I can certainly say would not have been possible without Leila’s help during out tutor sessions. Her sessions provided me with a better understanding of the subject and how to revise and improve my exam technique to such a great extent. I truly appreciate the effort and time she put in the sessions."
