My name is Tejal Paliya, and I am a First Class MEng + BA in Chemical Engineering from the University of Cambridge. Alongside my academic pursuits, I have developed a strong passion for education and have accumulated extensive experience in tutoring and mentoring students across various age groups. Over the past few years, I have provided private tutoring in STEM subjects, assisting students in enhancing their understanding and academic performance. Additionally, I have guided prospective university applicants through mock interviews and exam preparation, helping them navigate the competitive admissions process. My role as an Engineering and AI mentor on a summer programme involved supervising students aged 13–15, supporting them with their projects, and ensuring they had a positive and enriching learning experience.

I am a first-year medical student at University College London (MBBS) with a strong academic background and a genuine passion for teaching and mentoring students. Alongside my studies, I tutor students from KS1 and KS3 through to GCSE and A-level across Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Spanish, and admissions-related preparation. Beyond academics, I have always been actively involved in drama, acting, and sport, which has played a major role in shaping how I teach. Performing on stage taught me confidence, clarity of communication, and how to engage an audience, while sport instilled discipline, resilience, and the importance of consistent practice.

I have completed over 100 hours of tutoring, working with students of varying abilities and learning styles, including SEN students. These experiences have reinforced my belief that no two students learn in the same way, and that effective teaching must be flexible and empathetic. I take time to understand each student’s strengths, challenges, and motivations before tailoring lessons to suit them.

Having recently completed my own A-levels and transitioned into medical school, I understand the academic pressure students face and the frustration of knowing content but underperforming in exams. I aim to bridge that gap by helping students build confidence, develop strong exam technique, and, most importantly, begin to enjoy what they are learning. I firmly believe that students perform best when they feel supported, understood, and genuinely enjoy their studies.

I have successfully contributed to large and complex integration projects as part of collaborative teams, demonstrating strong organizational and problem-solving skills. My deep involvement in martial arts, mountaineering, strength training, and cardiovascular fitness has not only enhanced my physical stamina, technique, and strength but also shaped my professional approach as a rock climbing instructor and fitness coach.

My qualifications include a Level 6 Diploma in Education and Teaching (RQF), QTLS certification, and an Advanced Level 2/3/4 Personal Trainer Diploma, alongside specialized certifications in Anatomy and Physiology, Nutrition, and Studio Cycling. I hold a 2:1 BSc (Hons) in Financial Computing (Mathematics) from Brunel University, complemented by expertise in Financial Information Systems and Algorithmic Programming.

My technical expertise spans anatomy and physiology, sport-specific training practices, and nutrition, supported by certifications in Spinning, Kettlebells, First Aid, and Boxing. I am also proficient in a range of software packages, including MS Office, Adobe Premiere Pro, and Kindle Publishing.

Driven by a commitment to excellence, I strive to inspire and empower individuals to achieve their full potential, whether through education, fitness, or personal growth. My diverse skill set, professional experience, and passion for continuous learning make me a versatile and impactful professional in both academic and wellness settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you can’t find the answer you’re looking for in the FAQs, feel free to contact us!

What are the Common Entrance Exams?

Common Entrance is a series of exams often taken by students in Year 6 (age 11) or Year 8 (age 13) in order to obtain admission to selective grammar or independent schools.

How do I register my child for the Common Entrance?

For pupils applying to grammar schools, the 11-plus exam is normally free. All private schools require you to fill out a registration form and may charge you a non-refundable registration fee (between £100 and £300). Once you accept the position, they may want a deposit, which will be repaid at the end of your child's first term.

Registration can begin up to 18 months before your child is scheduled to take the examinations, so it's important to apply early to ensure that registration spots are available.

How often should you tutor a child?

We recommend scheduling at least two tutoring sessions per week, with each session lasting between one to two hours, to ensure your child receives the support they need. Our experienced common entrance exams tutors can function as teachers and can work with your child to teach their curriculum and reinforce learning.

💻Where do the sessions take place?

You will be able to access all the material, including the live lessons, from the comfort of your own home as the lessons are held virtually.

💰Do I have to pay for all of the lessons upfront?

We strive to make our courses as accessible as possible. During your FREE one-off consultation with our experienced common entrance exam tutors, you can discuss individual payment plans with our team.
