Harshini Shanker
Maths maverick, science nerd and passionate tutor at your service! Well-trained in A-level **physics**, **chemistry**, **economics**, **finance**, **statistics**, **mathematics** and **further maths** with top grades. I’m here to do more than just get you past your exams. I break down the big stuff until it fits in your pocket. You will build a rock-solid foundation with me, no matter what your starting point is. Anything you don’t understand in class is my failure, not yours. When I’m not helping you ace your coursework, you’ll find me diving into a Shakespeare tragedy, twisting Rubik’s cubes or painting. But enough about me. What’s tripping you up? What ambitious but achievable goals can we pursue together? Let’s talk.
Abel Panicker
I’m an engineering Masters student pursuing Mechatronics and Robotics, i have completed mechanical engineering in my undergrad.I have a lot of experience in Maths and Physics, I have completed my A levels and had immense interests in Maths and Physics which lead me to pursue engineering. I believe Maths and Physics are the basic fundamentals to build a strong foundation if engineering is a career choice.
Jasmine Michalowska
I graduated from the University of Leicester with an integrated Masters in Physics. I’m currently doing a part-time PhD in BioPhysics at University College London, where I’m hoping to shed light on how cancer develops at the earliest of stages. I’ve always loved physics and maths due to the elegance in which simple formulas and fundamental theories can be applied to complicated, real world situations, helping us understand and see the world around us in a way we couldn’t before. I enjoy trying to pass this passion on to students of all ages in both science and mathematics, helping them understand the relevance of these subjects outside of their exams, whilst instilling confidence in their own abilities to solve problems and persevere with challenging topics. I have extensive tutoring experience with students of all abilities, including those with special educational needs. I am compassionate and patient in my approach, and am able to adapt my teaching style dynamically to each student, focusing on their strengths while finding any weaknesses that may prevent them from achieving their goals. I develop long term, personalised study plans with each student and monitor their progress throughout our work together, ensuring they’re staying on track, and adapting the plan and my tutoring methods if there are any plateaus in progress. I am honest and open in my communication, ensuring parents and students are informed of study plans, progress and any additional attitudes and behaviours that are relevant to the student’s academic progress. I understand the importance of this collaborative approach in order to ensure tuition continues to be beneficial, and the student achieves their full potential.

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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
