Zubayr A.

I am currently a 4th year medical student at St. George’s University of London. I have been teaching various levels of education for over 6 years now. I truly have found a passion and a job I thoroughly enjoy. 

I very much enjoy the pastoral role of being a tutor, sharing with my students ways in which they can be more motivated, how to deal with the pressures of important exams and also lifestyle choices they can make to improve their chances of success. Being a young tutor and recently going through the exams and university application process, I strongly relate to all my students and I often find myself being a mentor to my students, guiding them along a process I have successfully been through. Over recent years, I have close to 1000 hours of teaching experience, teaching science and maths up to a level as well as coaching people through the medicine and dentistry application process.

Similarly to my choices of studying medicine, i seek work which gives me satisfaction and allows me to build a rapport with individuals. I see tutoring as a platform to help you fulfil your potential in whatever subject and as a means of developing your identity as a successful student.

My style of teaching is very much adapted to the need of the student at any given time. I like to focus on building a strong foundation in the understanding of subject knowledge and place huge emphasis on improving a student`s ability to answer exam style questions and over time develop their competency with regards to their exam technique. I like to attempt whole exam papers with students closer to exam time to best equip them with the skills needed to ace their exams.
