Kylie Wates
Hello! My name is Kylie and I am currently studying BSc Business Management at King’s College London. I love all things economics related because it is all around us, in everything we do in life. But I also love languages, too. I was born in Japan, and have grown up speaking both Japanese and English. Learning French and Spanish at school meant that I could broaden my horizons even more, and learn about two entirely new cultures, and that’s what I think is the best thing about languages. Aside from academics, I enjoy watching films and playing video games. I also like to bullet journal and scrapbook a lot!
Beatrice Vincent
Having read English Literature at Durham University, I have studied texts from the Viking Age all the way up to present day, and am hugely interested in the way humanity uses words and storytelling. As a teacher, I previously tutored with Explore Learning, and therefore have experience helping children from reception age through to GCSE in English and Maths. I strive to tailor my teaching approach to each individual child, and to boost their self esteem alongside their grades. In my lessons I am always seeking to foster a true love of learning in my students, encouraging them to read widely around their key subjects, which helps them to develop an independent learning style that will benefit them in all stages of their journey through education. Outside of tutoring, I am an actor and playwright.

Rakshita Shamloll
I am a current student at St George’s University of London studying Biomedical science. I have developed a deep appreciation for science for a variety of reasons: It helps me understand the world around me, it helps give logical meanings to chaotic and complicated concepts, there is always something to learn and it has a huge impact on human life. Outside of studying I enjoy working on a variety of crochet projects, I hold teaching sessions with children as a member of the Teddy Bear hospital society and I volunteer as a dementia patient befriender.
Ashmita Saha
I did my Masters in English Literature from University of Leeds. As a person, I’ve always been passionate about teaching and would frequently volunteer to explain lessons in classes. It wasn’t until much later, when I was volunteering in a couple of NGOs that I realised a vast number of children in India were struggling to learn English due to a lack of adequate resources. In this growing era of globalisation, knowing English is strikingly important which is why my objective became to bring forth my knowledge and skill set to teach English Language and Literature. Literature has the power to influence, educate and empower individuals and its subjectivity is one of its striking beauty. I strongly believe that it is best taught when we open dialogue so we must give children a platform for their thoughts and voices. Just like the subject, I’m aware that every child is different as well so I like to make an extra effort to customise my ways of teaching to suit the needs of the child. I believe an educator has a big responsibility to bridge the gap and show the various possibilities that Literature has to provide of the world. I love the subject more so because it can be made fun and reaches the soul if we put our mind and heart into it with honesty. My aim is to improve every child’s learning experience by bringing in my own character to the lessons, and help them to achieve their full potential. I hope to be able to instil the sense of excitement and joy I feel when teaching the subject, in my students too.

Nadia Massoud
I am currently a second year student at UCL studying History and Spanish. I enjoy humanities and languages for a number of reasons, but most importantly, because of their ability to reveal a new perspective of the past, present and the future. Studying History allows you to see a location, an event or an object in a way that you never before thought was possible. Studying Spanish allows you to understand the language and culture of 447 million people and how their present day life differs from your own. Studying English allows you to nurture your creativiy and imagination, sparking your curiousity of the future and ‘what could be.’ I have experience with tutoring and I believe that having a tutor that really understands you and the way in which you work is essential to success.
Andreea Maria Dinu
I am a first year undergraduate Natural Sciences student at University College London, specializing in Biomedical Sciences and Organic Chemistry. My interdisciplinary programme gave me the opportunity to study various science modules (Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, Statistics) and build up my understanding of the world around us by gaining different scientific perspectives on every problem. I really enjoy my subjects as Chemistry and Biology have enabled me to create my own molecular world, while Mathematics shaped my logical thinking. I am eager to help my tutees discover the creativity behind each chemical reaction and build together our way to the answer of every Maths problem. I believe by sharing my curious nature and by teaching them that there is no such thing as a “silly” question, our lessons will be enjoyable and constructive! In my spare time, I can be found reading a book, doing horse riding, or cycling across London.
Maham Malik
I am currently studying medicine at the University of Manchester.

In my free time, I love running, reading, and volunteering for children’s rights.
Beth Landi
Hi, my name’s Beth 🙂 I graduated with a first class honours in Psychology BSc from the University of Kent, and have recently finished my Master’s degree in Social Psychology. I studied both Psychology and Sociology at A-Level, and feel confident helping students with either of these subjects. Social sciences have huge real world implication, there is psychological and social theory popping up everywhere in our day to day lives, and the more we study it the more we see it. I believe that social sciences have the perfect balance of logic and creativity. It is a science that encourages for interpretation and deep thinking, meaning it can always be super engaging and exciting – we will find a way to unlock this side of learning for you! Social sciences can be tough to wrap your head around sometimes, but I am super passionate about unlocking young people’s potential and believe that a huge part of learning and success is down to building confidence in your ability, and a love for your subjects. Therefore, I will always strive to make learning fun, and take a student-centred approach to tutoring.

Dorothy Kaltsa
I am currently studying Biochemical Engineering at University College of London (UCL). My degree combines all sciences in a great manner which is something that i really love about it. I like sciences because usually the answers are simply right or wrong and there is not much debate about that. I love how exact mathematics are and how maths, physics and chemistry are really the foundation of everything arounds us. Biology is a subject i find fascinating, because it allows you to understand how your body, but also every living organism, works and there are endless opportunities of development which is exciting. In my free time i love hanging out with my friends and family, travelling and exploring new places. I also enjoy working out and watching good movies.
Kieran James Judge
I am currently studying a PhD in Creative Writing at Aberystwyth University, and also hold MA degrees in Film Producing and Creative Writing, with a BA in Creative Writing & Film And Television Studies as my undergraduate degree. I love books and stories, and film and television, but also love learning about the wider ramifications of both of these methods of communication. They alter how we perceive the world, how we understand it at a fundamental level, and the ways in which these two subject areas can intersect with almost every other subject, be it history or geography or anthropology or psychology, is fascinating. I follow my interests in these areas by writing short stories, which have been published in many anthologies and magazines, and writing about fiction and film for a number of online sites. I worked as a Floor Runner on the feature film *My Happy Ending* (starring Andie Macdowell and Miriam Margolyes), been a slush pile reader for a short story anthology, worked in schools as a supply teacher, and taught the filmmaking activities at Camp Cooper Summer Camp in Scotland. On top of all that, I’ve been a tutor for Manning’s Tutors for nearly three years.
Arya Jahangiri
I am a computer science graduate from the University of Manchester. I love computing and mathematics, because they promote an empirical understanding of common problems in the world, and provide the tools for creatively finding logical solutions to those problems. The freedom to explore the world like this with the appropriate tools and, more importantly, mindset is invaluable in my opinion. I also have a great appreciation for the natural sciences and economics for the same reasons. In my spare time, I like to spend meaningful time with friends, read, exercise, watch movies, and play games.
Eleanor Jackson
Hello! I am a first year PhD student at the University of Sheffield looking at serotonin metabolism in ADHD, a neuroscience project. I completed my Undergraduate and masters education in Neuroscience at UCL, and took a break from accademia to work in SEN schools for 2 years before going back into the lab. I love all things science and I love teaching science, but I also do a bit of english on the side too! I have been a tutor for the past 5 years. In the past I have worked in the education teams of multiple different science museums, so my main attitude towards learning is that it should be both fun and educational. I love my degree and biosciences because i get to spend my days looking at the organ that is responsible for all of shakespeares poems and all the music ever written. With tutoring style, I find it most important to pinpoint peoples specific interests, and try to make learning content as relatable and interesting as possible- especially with science, its much easier to learn when you know why something is important in real life.

Elaha Dauod
I am currently studying psychology at Goldsmiths University (second year). Psychology ensures that the same problem is looked at in multiple ways. For example, aggression in be viewed through a cognitive, biological, social, developmental and personality lens. Furthermore, psychology often, if not always, pertains to topics concerning everyone and anyone. For example, I am learning about typical and pathological ageing in my Biological Substrates of Behaviour module. This particular topic can be applied to everyone and thus, makes psychology very interesting. My interests include; reading, playing chess and practising the piano.
Doris Darkwah
I am a third-year medical student who is passionate about equality, diversity, and inclusion in both education and the healthcare system. What inspires me about medicine is its formidable workforce who, against all odds, persevere through neverending challenges, all the while providing unwavering care to the most vulnerable in society. In my role as a tutor, I hope to empower students, helping them to grow in confidence and become excited about their subjects. I believe that it’s easiest to engage with your learning when you feel adequately supported and are given the space to make mistakes. Through my own studies, I have found that maintaining good habits in school as well as outside of school can provide the consistency and balance necessary to excel.
Michael Chukwukere
I graduated from Gregory University in 2021 where I obtained my B.Sc/B.Eng in Electrical/Electronics Engineering; and I’m currently doing my MSc in Mechatronics & Robotics at the University of Leeds. I have a fascination with the key sciences that make up the physically perceivable universe – Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics – because I believe that, only with a full understanding of the laws that govern the universe, would you be able to build systems that break those laws. I don’t learn things just to understand them; I learn things to deconstruct them, rebuild them and optimize them. In my spare time, I absolutely love movies, drawing and playing video games – but not even Triple A games, mind you. I’m talking the absolute RETRO-est of the retro games – these give me joy!
Masnuna Chowdhury
Hi there! I’m an aspiring actuary and a first-year maths and actuarial science student (BSc Hons) at the University of Manchester. My love for maths existed since the beginning of time and managed to stick with me all the way through GCSEs and A-Levels, so I decided, why not study it at uni? I’ve been privately tutoring for a couple of years now and have previously tutored secondary school maths students with the charity, The Tutor Trust, for almost a year. I am experienced in both online and in-person teaching. However, now I will only be tutoring online as it has become my optimal way of teaching since the beginning of the pandemic. Teaching is a career I’d like to take up in the distant future, after becoming rich from being an actuary off-course. Outside of teaching and learning, I am a volunteer peer buddy for students at my uni, an avid fictional book reader and always on an adventure somewhere in the cities of England. I look forward to work with new faces and hopefully I can inspire other students to pursue a career in maths too!
Bel Ben Willie
I am a 3rd year student currently studying Property Development at the University of Portsmouth. I chose to study this subject because I have a passion for the built environment and how it can improve people’s lives both practically and aesthetically. I enjoy both Maths and Spanish because they are languages in their own right. They both are means of conveying information that can be understood by others. I particularly enjoy Spanish because of the rich culture and context behind the formation of the language. Maths is a key function of our day to day lives, its necessity has led to my interest growing over the years because of the variety of calculations that may come into play on a daily basis.
Maurits Bekkers
I am a Philosophy and Political Theory MA student at the University of Manchester, graduating earlier this year with a First-Class BSc (Hons) in Mathematics and Philosophy, also at Manchester. I loved the duality of my undergraduate degree, since it enabled me to understand what may initially seem to be stubbornly pure subjects in an interdisciplinary way. In particular, I enjoy the incontestability and exactness Mathematics is able to offer, while at the same time having the ability to engage with more abstract and conceptual topics in Philosophy. Since both of these fields follow a common logic and a certain list of proof-formats, I was able to continually strengthen my knowledge in either area by practicing the other. I spend my spare time arranging and making music, writing articles, and running!
Diya Barot
I am a 3nd Year Medicine student at Imperial College London. More than happy to give any advice to students I am tutoring about the university application process for medicine. I love biology and psychology and studying them in GCSE along with other factors made me keen to pursue a career as a doctor. I am interested in tutoring students in science subjects as I want to, not only help students work hard and get grades they are proud of but also show them the relevence of what they learn to their real lives. Hopefully, I can help and guide them to follow whatever they choose to do in their futures.
Nada Baessa
Mathematics is, in essence, not about finding solutions to equations or calculating the velocity of a projectile. Although those are useful consequences, mathematics is about discovering structure, finding deep connections and understanding why they exist. As a first year mathematics student at King’s College London, this is why I chose to study the subject. A favourite quote of mine, by Maryam Mirzakhani, says that “The beauty of mathematics only shows itself to its more patient followers”. The rewarding feeling of success after battling with a challenging problem is exactly what makes me pursue mathematics, and I hope to instil that same feeling in my students when they overcome the challenge of a problem to uncover the beauty of mathematics.
Maria Araújo
I graduated with Distinction from University College London, where I studied for a Master’s in Comparative Literature. My research focused on Anglo-American Modernism and Philosophy of Language, but I regularly engage with all types of text. Writing burrows its way into every aspect of my life – I read, edit, translate, write poetry, review new books, and spend about half of my day trying to find new engaging ways to write boring emails. I think the study of language and literary interpretation is wonderful for different reasons. In a way, it is a superpower – and when used responsibly, it brings people together by articulating their lives and struggles in a relatable and enlightening way. How one tells a story reflects what they find important. Learning to interpret a story allows us to discover *how* this happens, and how to *make it *happen.
Hassan Ahmad
I graduated from UCL with a BSc in Physics. I have been teaching and tutoring a wide array of subjects since I was 15. From Maths and Physics to outdoor wilderness training and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu! But there was always something else about Physics. It is so ‘mysterious’. There is so much to unpack and learn about. Black holes, dark matter, gravity, and string theory all incite an emotion in me asking me to learn more and more. But I don’t want to go on this learning journey alone! I’m often described by my students as very patient, friendly, and a ‘great explainer’ of challenging topics. I love reading about pedagogy and effective teaching strategies for different types of learners and implementing them in my classes. Students often look up to me as a mentor and not just a tutor. What makes me the happiest is seeing a positive impact in my students’ confidence and self-worth. And I won’t exchange anything in the world for it.
Anand Aggarwal
I’m a current fourth year student at the University of Bath studying Chemistry. For my A Levels I did Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry and one of the things I like most about these subjects is the logical nature and structure of the content; this leads nicely into developing problem solving skills which is one of the things I most enjoy about teaching.
Bayode Abass
Hi, my name is Bayode (Bye-Oh-Day) and I am currently studying for a Masters in Law and Social Justice! I love English because ever since a young age I enjoyed reading books and creative writing. I still enjoy writing and I currently write a female millennial network where I provide tips for women to progress. Additionally, English has always been one of my strong points and I studied it all through GCSEs and A-levels. I look forward to teaching in this area and providing useful insight.
