Chess Сoach : 1-1 Chess Lessons

I am a dedicated and results-driven tutor with a strong academic background in Psychology. With over three years of experience in education, including working with students with special needs, and one year experience as mental health support worker, I am passionate about fostering an inclusive and supportive learning environment. My expertise spans various subjects, including Mathematics, English, Psychology, Environmental and Physical Sciences, Creative Writing, and Admissions Test Preparation.

My approach to tutoring is student-centered, focusing on personalized learning strategies that enhance comprehension, critical thinking, and academic excellence. I leverage my problem-solving and organizational skills to create structured lesson plans while adapting to diverse learning styles. My strong communication and active listening skills allow me to build rapport with students, boosting their confidence and motivation.

Beyond academics, I hold multiple certifications in digital skills, first aid, and child protection, ensuring a holistic and safe learning experience. I also have keen interest in sports and exercise; when I am not working, you can catch me playing games like chess, volleyball or in the kitchen baking. Additionally, my proficiency in Microsoft Office and administrative experience supports effective lesson planning and resource management.
I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to students’ success and make a meaningful impact in their academic journey.

I am a 4th year medical student at Imperial College, currently intercalating in cardiovascular sciences. My passion for teaching stems from my own journey through medicine, and I have dedicated myself to researching evidence-based techniques for effective learning and revision. This allows me to tailor sessions to the idiosyncratic needs of each student.
With over 100 hours of tutoring experience, I strive to aid all students from GCSE to university admissions. Looking specifically at medicine, I have run multiple seminars and 1:1 sessions on interview practice and mocks for medicine applications, using an original curriculum I developed alongside admissions staff.

I achieved a score of 42 points at IB, with all 7s in my higher subjects – Italian, chemistry and biology. At GCSE, I achieved 13 A*s.
I am intimately familiar with the medicine application processes of the universities I applied to: ICL, KCL, QM and UCL, receiving an offer from the former 3

I’m Arif. I began my academic life in an IB school, taking IB Biology, Chemistry and Maths at a higher level and followed my interest in both biology and chemistry with a BSc in Biochemistry.

I then completed my MSc in Bioinformatics, as I had a growing interest in the Human microbiome and its implications in disease and disorders. My research was focused on the role of oral microbiota in infective endocarditis through systems biology approaches. My interests lie in bioinformatics and predictive disease modelling, with a focus on the human microbiome as a potential biomarker.

I’m now pursuing a medical degree at the University of Warwick, and am eager to integrate computational systems biology-based disease modeling with practical diagnostic and clinical care.

Outside, you might spot me on Brick Lane, St. James Park, or St. Paul’s, playing chess with the local chess hustlers

Hello,

My name is Edward (Teddy) Pilgrim. I achieved a 2:1 MChem from the University of Edinburgh in 2020. I have worked for the past 4 years as a lab technician and a brewer at multiple craft breweries (Beavertown, Brewdog etc). I am currently studying in a course with Data Camp to try and learn SQL, R, and Python to try and diversify my skills and potentially gain employment in the data sector.Therefore, I also have a strong mathematical ability. But my core strength is my ability to communicate and teach. My dad is a teacher and I learnt from him how to explain problems and how to be patient with students.

I think my real life experience of work sets me aside from other tutors as I not have the experience to educate someone in academic matters, but I can also shed light on the nature of the job market. What my experience has been like in terms of working a production job with scientific elements and what I have been through to get to my decision of retraining myself.
