    My name is Siddeeqah.
    Currently, I am a second year dental student.
    I recently completed my A levels in biology chemistry and maths. I then decided to go along the science route and pursue a career in dentistry.
    I chose dentistry for a number of different reasons. Dentistry is a fulfilling career as it will allow me to actively improve the oral health of my patients which will be very rewarding. Dentistry is also a multi faceted career which combines many different skills such as problem solving, manual dexterity, good communication as well as time management which is quite appealing. It also provides a good work life balance and there is always the opportunity to further specialise into your chosen field of study.
    My interest in science stems from secondary school. I enjoyed biology the most since I was intrigued to learn about the inner workings of the human body. I progressed and studied biology at a level to further develop my knowledge and currently, at university I study anatomy and histology which are both branches of biology.
    I also really enjoyed maths throughout secondary school and college. My favourite part of maths was trigonometry at a level. I liked the challenge of solving difficult equations. Maths allowed me to develop transferable skills such as problem solving and thinking analytically and critically which will also be required of me as a dentist in the future.

    Hi! I am a second year medic at Lancaster Medical School. I am a bubbly, hard-working and friendly individual and will do the best I can in tutoring you. Here’s a little something that says why: throughout high-school I made sure to take up every opportunity to strengthen my skills as I could and there were many weeks where I would be volunteering 10 hours a week at 3 different placements; this wasn’t only placements in hospitals but also at language schools. This helped ensure my skills were more broader than those required for medical school.
    I wasn’t always certain what my career path would look like, but the more time I spend at medical school the more sure I am on what I want to be, and most importantly who. I was given the opportunity to not just pursue a deeply loved passion of mine, but also medicine along side it! Yes, that’s right, this degree has helped me flourish as more than just a medical student, but also as a poet and a writer. It has encouraged me to believe that I can do much more than medicine and that I can be my own person within my career of choice. This is what I wish to impart in each and every one of you.

    Hi there!

    My name is Ruairi (think roar-ree). I have recently graduated from the University of Cambridge with, among other things, a first-class with distinction in my dissertation on public policy. Throughout my time at Cambridge, I have taken papers spanning development, economics, law, and policy. I am combining the knowledge and skills I gained during my undergraduate degree to become a corporate lawyer at a global, Top 20 AM Law firm.

    In the meantime, I would like to tutor you! I have thoroughly enjoyed tutoring in the past and believe I can help you excel in a wide range of subjects. I would also be more than happy to help with applications and interviews, be that to universities or to law firms. More generally, I can give you advice on navigating college/sixth form, university, and the corporate world, based on my past successes (and failures!).

    Outside of academia and work, I like to watch Arsenal and international rugby. I am also hoping to get back into gym and kickboxing in the new academic year, as well as jewellery-making.

    I hope to hear from you soon – please do reach out if you are interested!

    Hi, I’m Mamta, a first year medical student at the University of Birmingham.
    I’m very passionate about teaching and have been tutoring for more three years, helping with personalised exam preparation and revision techniques based on first hand experience as well as supporting younger students with key skills.

    I achieved 3A*s as well as 10 Grade 9s in my GCSEs, so I feel that I am able to draw upon my own experience to help students with the content covered as well as key revision tips. This includes creating a revision plan from the very beginning so that when it comes to exams, these are as stress-free as possible. I also find that frequent reviews of prior topics helps to really ingrain knowledge and means that it is more intuitive to recall or apply when it comes to practice questions.

    FAQs

    Read some of our most frequently asked questions and answers

    What is Phonics?

    Phonics is a method used to teach children how to read and write by focusing on the sounds that make up words. It involves teaching the relationships between letters (graphemes) and the sounds they represent (phonemes). By learning phonics, children can decode and spell words more effectively, which is a fundamental skill in developing strong reading and writing abilities.

    How much do Phonics tutors cost per hour?

    The cost of a Phonics tutor can vary depending on their qualifications and experience. Generally, private tutors charge between £30.00 and £50.00 per hour, with online lessons often slightly cheaper than in-person lessons

    Can you take Phonics lessons online?

    Yes, you can take Phonics lessons online! All of our tutors offer online tutoring, most of them through our state-of-the-art online classroom which has been built by us to meet all your needs.

    How can I support my child when learning Phonics?

    To support your child when learning phonics, start by reading together regularly. Choose phonics-based books that emphasise letter-sound relationships. Additionally, engage in fun activities like playing word games, using flashcards, and sounding out words in everyday situations. Lastly, provide a positive and encouraging environment, praising your child's efforts and progress to boost their confidence in phonics learning.
