About Maryam

I am a UK-based, fully qualified teacher with over 15 years of teaching and tutoring experience across the UK and internationally, including Qatar and Kuwait. I hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), a Master’s degree in English Language and Literature, and have extensive experience teaching Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and English across primary, secondary and A-level education.

I specialise in helping students develop confidence, strengthen subject knowledge, improve examination technique and achieve their academic potential. I provide personalised tuition for KS2, KS3, GCSE, IGCSE, A-level and IB students, adapting my teaching methods to suit individual abilities, learning preferences and educational needs.

Having taught in British, international and independent educational settings, I bring a wealth of experience in delivering engaging, structured and inquiry-based lessons to students from diverse cultural and educational backgrounds.

I am also an active member of the Institute of Physics (IOP) and have a particular interest in making challenging scientific and mathematical concepts accessible, enjoyable and easier to understand.

* Physics: KS3, GCSE, IGCSE, A-level and IB.
* Chemistry: KS3 and GCSE.
* Biology: KS3 and GCSE.
* English: KS2, KS3 and GCSE English Language and Literature.

Teaching and Tutoring Experience

I have over 15 years of experience working in education, including secondary schools, primary schools, international British schools, further education and private tuition.

My international teaching experience includes working in Qatar and Kuwait, delivering British and international curricula. I have also taught at Sherborne International School in Dorset, where I worked with students from across Europe, East Asia, Central Asia and South America.

This experience has enabled me to develop a flexible, culturally sensitive teaching approach that recognises the different educational backgrounds, abilities and aspirations of individual learners.

Since 2013, I have provided private tuition to families across London, Surrey and Essex, supporting students with schoolwork, homework, examination preparation and long-term academic development.

I have particular experience supporting students with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including learners who require differentiated instruction, additional processing time, structured explanations and individual learning plans (IEPs). I also have experience working with EAL learners and students with dyslexia.

Examination Preparation and Mark Scheme Expertise

One of my key strengths is my extensive experience preparing students for examinations across the major UK and international examination boards.

I have worked extensively with examination papers, official mark schemes and assessment criteria for:

* AQA
* Pearson Edexcel
* OCR
* Cambridge International (CIE)
* International Baccalaureate (IB)

I use past examination papers and official mark schemes to familiarise students with examination expectations, command words, assessment objectives and the precise requirements of individual questions.

My lessons incorporate examination-style questions, structured answers, worked examples and detailed feedback. I teach students not only how to arrive at the correct answer but also how to demonstrate their understanding effectively and gain marks through accurate scientific terminology, mathematical working and well-structured explanations.

For A-level Physics students, I also provide support with practical investigations, experimental techniques, data analysis, written practical assessments and CPAC requirements.

My Teaching Approach

I believe that effective one-to-one tuition should be personalised, engaging and focused on measurable academic progress.

Every student learns differently, so I begin by identifying their existing knowledge, areas of difficulty and individual learning needs. I then develop a structured programme that builds confidence and understanding step by step.

My teaching approach includes:

* Clear explanations of challenging concepts using accessible language.
* Step-by-step demonstrations of mathematical and scientific problems.
* Interactive PowerPoint presentations and digital learning resources.
* Examination-style questions and past-paper practice.
* Detailed feedback using official examination mark schemes.
* Regular assessment to monitor progress and identify areas for improvement.
* Differentiated activities, including additional support and stretch-and-challenge tasks.
* Homework and independent learning activities to consolidate understanding.

I have extensive experience using online teaching platforms, including Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet. I also use a digital graphics tablet (XP-Pen Innovator 16) to demonstrate calculations, annotate scientific diagrams and work through examination questions in real time.

For online tuition, students can follow explanations, ask questions and work through problems interactively, making lessons as engaging and effective as face-to-face teaching.

SEN and Individualised Learning Support

I have considerable experience working with students with additional learning needs, including dyslexia, EAL and other SEN-related learning requirements.

I adapt the pace, presentation and structure of lessons to ensure that students feel supported and can make meaningful progress.

My approach includes:

* Breaking complex topics into manageable steps.
* Using visual explanations, diagrams and worked examples.
* Allowing additional processing time where appropriate.
* Reinforcing key concepts through repetition and retrieval practice.
* Building confidence through positive encouragement.
* Providing extension activities for students who need additional challenge.

I strongly believe that every student has the potential to progress when provided with the right guidance, encouragement and teaching strategies.

Why Choose Me?

* Over 15 years of teaching and tutoring experience.
* UK Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
* UK and international teaching experience.
* Experience teaching British, international and IB curricula.
* Extensive knowledge of AQA, Edexcel, OCR and Cambridge examination requirements.
* Experience using official examination papers and mark schemes across examination boards.
* Specialist A-level Physics knowledge, including practical endorsement and CPAC guidance.
* Experience supporting SEN and EAL learners.
* Personalised face-to-face and online tuition.
* Strong subject knowledge across Mathematics and Sciences.
* Supportive, patient and encouraging teaching style.

My aim is not simply to help students complete their homework or prepare for their next examination. I want them to develop a genuine understanding of their subjects, become independent learners and gain the confidence to tackle unfamiliar questions.

Whether you are looking for support with schoolwork, help overcoming difficulties in a particular subject, GCSE preparation, A-level examination practice or KS2 SATs preparation, I can provide structured and individualised tuition to help you work towards your goals.

Please feel free to get in touch to discuss your learning requirements and arrange tuition.

My lessons are carefully structured, engaging and tailored to each student’s individual abilities, learning needs and academic goals.

I begin by identifying areas of strength and difficulty before developing a personalised learning plan. Concepts are explained clearly through step-by-step demonstrations, interactive presentations, visual resources and practical examples.

For GCSE and A-level students, I place particular emphasis on examination preparation, past-paper practice and understanding official mark schemes across AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR, Cambridge International and IB. Students learn how to approach challenging questions, structure answers effectively and maximise marks.

I also provide:

* Step-by-step Maths and Physics problem-solving.
* GCSE and A-level examination preparation.
* Regular homework, assessments and progress feedback.
* Support with schoolwork and difficult topics.
* Differentiated lessons for SEN and EAL learners.
* Stretch-and-challenge activities for high-achieving students.
* A-level Physics practical skills and CPAC guidance.

Lessons are available face-to-face and online via Zoom, Microsoft Teams and other preferred platforms. I use a digital graphics tablet to demonstrate calculations, annotate diagrams and work through questions interactively.

My teaching philosophy is simple: build understanding, develop confidence and turn academic potential into achievement. Every lesson has a clear purpose, and every student receives the individual attention and encouragement needed to progress.
