Study Skills Tutors : 1-1 Study Skills Preparation

Hello, I’m Talhah Bin-Islam—a highly driven biomedical science graduate preparing to begin Graduate Entry Medicine at the University of Nottingham. I am deeply passionate about education, academic excellence, and mentoring the next generation of achievers. I have extensive tutoring experience across a wide range of subjects, supporting students from 11+, KS2, KS3, GCSE, A-Level, and beyond. I also specialize in university preparation, including medical school applications at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

My approach is not just about delivering knowledge but building strategic thinking, resilience, and long-term success. I believe in creating high-impact results by tailoring learning to each student’s aspirations. With a strong foundation in medicine, education, and personal development, I bring energy, precision, and ambition to every session. I am committed to helping every student unlock their full potential and push beyond what they believe is possible.

I’m Amba. I am a mum to an 12 year-old boy, a lawyer and a law tutor!

I have been in practice for 18 years and counting across many disciplines. I currently work in Civil litigation.

Here’s a cringy video of me introducing myself – https://youtu.be/WBsRWiPNe9A

I have been tutoring students across all disciplines of law and differing levels; A-Level, CILEX, LLB, LLM, LPC and GDL and now the SQE. I can offer other subjects which are listed on my profile as I have experience within these. I am, however, focusing on Law Tutoring but feel free to contact me to discuss your needs and my availability.

I provide teaching on all core subjects with some options too. Don’t hesitate to get in touch with me to discuss any optional subjects. Practice: Family Law, Property Law, Private Client and Civil Litigation

I have experience working with students with SEN; dyslexia, ADHD and ASD.

I have experience teaching A-Level Law directly into schools, so I am familiar with the exam boards, teaching methods and materials. I am also offering a pre-recorded package of A-Level law lessons. These will be charged at rates less than my hourly rate. These do not have to include ongoing tutoring and will just be lectures that my students have found helpful. They then do have weekly support with me. My students who have taken up this option have found it particularly useful for year 12 students whose teaching was interrupted by Covid. The lectures cover the whole of the A-Level syllabus. For an additional fee, as a package, if you still do not want tutoring lessons, I can provide you with questions to answer and return them to me to mark for you too. Please get in touch with me to discuss.

(These lectures have also helped University undergrads for LLB core modules, GDL core modules and CILEX level 3 for distance learners who have no support).

I am in the process of creating a group mini-series of lessons as an ‘Introduction to Law. It will cover the foundations of the legal system and introduce you to law and technology, law and morality and law and society. This can be carried out as group lessons (reduced hourly rate) and also as 1:1 support.

For students who enjoy extracurricular – I will be starting a mini-debate/moot club which will be group sessions, and we can debate a different topic each week or have a mini-moot. If you are interested in this, please do let me know.

I also offer group and 1:1 lessons on OSCOLA referencing and research using LexisNexis. (I can do Westlaw too, but I personally prefer LexisNexis), if this is something you are interested in, then do let me know.

I also provide a proofreading service for essays, coursework, dissertations etc. I can also offer guidance on how to structure the essay ahead of writing it, so there is a starting point that will help you obtain the best possible grade and not involve a re-write after proofreading.

There are different levels of packages available, which are dependant on; word count and turnaround time. All prices include a video call to go through any feedback afterwards. All documents will be returned using a track changes document. Discounts for students already receiving tutoring, multiple essays, or return on the same essay following feedback will apply. Please get in touch with me for a quote.

Hi there!

My name is Stefan, and I am a (very) recent Law graduate from the University of Oxford.

The more recent part of my academic journey began at the age of 13, when I left my home country of Bulgaria in order to study independently in the UK. I ended up boarding as an international student at Ardingly College – a relatively small school in West Sussex – where I attained 9 IGCSEs at grade 9, an academic scholarship in Philosophy and Mathematics, and – ultimately – 44 points in the IB Diploma.

Following Ardingly, I went on to read Law at Trinity College, Oxford, where I held a Mowat Exhibition and Mowat Scholarship. I achieved a Distinction in my first-year Law Moderations, oversaw the Trinity College Law Society as Co-President during my second year, and graduated from the University with a First Class Honours.

While studying for my undergraduate degree, I was able to secure three Vacation Schemes at top-ranking commercial law firms in London, one of which I have now accepted a Training Contract with. Prior to its commencement, I will be studying for the SQE, as well as a Master’s in Law, at the University of Law.

As to my extracurriculars, I am an avid debater and public speaker. At Ardingly, I won the school’s Interhouse Debating Competition twice, participated in multiple MUNs, and reached the regional finals of the ESU Schools’ Mace competition. I also achieved a Distinction in my LAMDA Grade 8 Public Speaking Examinations and delivered various speeches around the college. Prior to my studies in the UK, I won a CEESA Speech and Debate tournament with a speech on ‘The Peril of Popularity’, which I later delivered as a TEDx talk.

Alongside debating and public speaking, I have also always had a strong passion for essay-writing: at Ardingly, I won the school’s Scholars’ Essay Competition (with an 8,000-word submission on Art History and Aesthetics); was Highly Commended in the NCH Law Essay Competition; and was Commended in the John Locke Institute Law Essay Competition.

In my free time, I enjoy weight training, playing the piano, and writing poetry. I also have a strong background in breakdancing and callisthenics, both of which I used to train in Bulgaria. I enjoy golfing in the summer, and skiing in the winter.

A dedicated, experienced Educator and Facilitator with a strong background in project management, report writing, international and digital education. My passion lies in helping individuals overcome challenges and achieve growth and success. With a blend of leadership expertise, coaching skills and planning, I am committed to empowering others to reach their full potential. I maintain enhanced disclosure on the DBS update service for current and prospective roles. I’ve worked in school and online settings, plus developed and delivered programmes. As such, I understand end to end course cycles, assessments and individual learning styles.
Currently I am a Specialist ASC Mentor supporting Autistic Spectrum students online and in person (one to one, weekly sessions). This is highly individual in scope, depending on student needs, also covering academic, social, wellbeing and organisation support.

Outside of tutoring, I have taken part in photography exhibitions in Seoul, mainly of documentary photography and graphic design.

I got to Cambridge without the help I needed, and that is why I am now dedicated to alleviate the same panic, stress and pressure by being a mentor and guide to many aspirants. I am a third-year law student and I know first-hand how confusing and intimidating the process can feel when you do not have guidance, and I have spent the past two years turning that experience into a clear, structured system that helps students succeed. I specialise in Law admissions, LNAT preparation and Oxbridge interview coaching, with consistent results across Oxbridge and Russell Group universities. My approach goes beyond grades and model answers. I focus on strategy, confidence, and how to think under pressure, so students walk into exams and interviews calm, prepared and in control. I offer a complete, supportive package and take genuine pride in seeing students exceed what they thought was possible.
