Helping Students Build Confidence, Achieve Success & Unlock Their Potential
As a qualified UK teacher with 15 years of experience, I specialize in Primary, Secondary, and GCSE education across maths, English, and science. Holding a PGCE and QTS, I have taught in mainstream schools, special educational needs (SEN) provisions, and diverse learning environments, ensuring that students of all backgrounds and abilities receive the support they need to succeed.
I have extensive experience working with students with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other special educational needs (SEN), using tailored strategies to help them overcome learning barriers. Every child learns differently, and my individualized approach ensures that each student gains confidence, develops a deep understanding of key concepts, and excels academically.
Why Choose My Approach? ✅ Personalized, Student-Centered Learning
Many students struggle in traditional classroom settings because they don’t receive individual attention. I take a tailored approach, designing lesson plans that cater to each student’s unique learning style. Whether they need reinforcement in certain subjects or are preparing for major exams, my structured yet flexible lessons ensure maximum engagement and retention.
✅ Building Confidence & Independence
Success in academics isn’t just about getting the right answers—it’s about building confidence and problem-solving skills. Many students fear maths or struggle with English because they lack self-belief. I focus on instilling a growth mindset, helping students feel capable, motivated, and ready to take on challenges.
✅ Expert Exam Preparation – GCSE, A-Level & Beyond
Preparing for GCSEs, A-Levels, and entrance exams can be stressful for both students and parents. My tutoring approach includes: ✔ Effective revision strategies – Teaching students how to study smarter, not harder. ✔ Time management techniques – Helping them structure revision for maximum efficiency. ✔ Exam technique coaching – Training students on how to approach different types of questions. ✔ Regular progress assessments – Identifying strengths and areas for improvement.
✅ Proven SEN & Autism Support
Having taught in SEN provisions and mainstream schools, I understand the unique challenges faced by students with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and processing difficulties. I provide: ✔ Sensory-friendly learning techniques to help students focus and stay engaged. ✔ Structured lessons with clear routines to reduce anxiety and build consistency. ✔ Patience, encouragement, and a positive learning environment where students feel valued and supported.

I originally trained and worked as a secondary school English teacher, but I found the pressure in schools led to teachers being overwhelmed with paperwork and the teaching element almost became a lesser priority. Now I prefer to focus on private tuition where my primary aim is teaching and enabling students to achieve. At Perfect Plus Tutoring, we strive to create an academic atmosphere which is enjoyable as well as beneficial. I offer private tuition to students in North Kent, Medway and Maidstone areas.
I have a team of tutors who are all DBS checked and either currently teach or have taught in schools.

Hi, my name is Fiza. I am a First Class Biomedical Science graduate and currently pursuing my Master's degree as a Physician Associate. I consider myself to be a well-rounded, highly motivated, and driven individual. Additionally, I have a chain of work experience that has allowed me to conjure a wealth of knowledge and skills that would prove useful in this field. All my jobs and work experience have subjected me to working with the public. The sheer span of experience I have gained has provided me with both the knowledge and confidence needed to help people effectively. Helping people has always been a consistent passion of mine; therefore, completing experiences that expose me to this has secured my opinion on this being something I want to pursue. I believe my extroverted and friendly personality will allow me to excel in this position to allow me to make a good relationship with my students to help them excel.
My teaching method is to make my lessons as interactive and engaging as possible such as question and answer and quizzes. This makes the content more memorable for the student. I want to open up students’ minds to help them see texts and books different perspectives to help them interpret them. I’m keen to allow the students to lead their own learning and okay to listen to what they feel they need to cover. Due to the fact that I have years of experience tutoring, I am pretty familiar with how exam boards require students to answer and interpret questions. I will cater my lessons to make sure that they are familiarising themselves with how exams are worded and how they visually appear so that when it comes to them sitting their exams, they’re familiar with how to go about this.

I have a deep passion for education as I value the opportunities effort, interest and knowledge affords everyone and how it can maximise their academic and artistic potential. I am certain this interest of mine can fuel and benefit the role of the Online Tutor greatly.
I am a student studying an undergraduate degree at Loughborough University currently pursuing a placement year in London. I completed the International Baccalaureate Diploma in 2023 at King George V School, taking English Language and Literature, History and Design Technology at a higher level and Chinese, Maths AI and Visual Art at a standard level. I have had experience in both online and in person tutoring and have extensive knowledge of both the content and exam technique of the subjects I offer to teach. Additionally, I have great experience in tutoring for qualifications such as the IB Diploma, A Level, IGCSE and HKDSE and am capable of teaching all age ranges and levels of education.
In my lessons I focus largely on exam technique catered toward the specific subject and its style of examination as well as essay writing and structures, putting an emphasis on how to convey the student’s thesis and argument in a clear and straightforward manner. In English lessons I help with formal analysis in literary texts and visual pieces. Lessons include timed practices, guided essays and guided analysis.
I am a hardworking, passionate and positive tutor determined to exceed the responsibilities I am given. I am confident I have excellent communication skills able to adapt speech and learning styles to each individual student. This is evident in my current record of students, with each final grade scoring far higher than they predicted. Having past experiences in office environments, tutoring and customer service, I take pride in my team working abilities this role requires.
I have attached my CV. Additionally, I have excellent references and would be delighted to discuss the possible vacancy with your convenience.
Thank you for considering my application.

I am a qualified English teacher and have been teaching English literature and language GCSE in a secondary school for over 10 years. I am also curriculum lead and have a wide understanding and experience in the support a student needs to develop their skills for English studies. Due to COVID-19 I may aware of the need for online teaching for students who are absent from school and may need the additional support at home to enhance their development for English GCSE. My teaching will provide this support for students.
