GCSE tutoring from a Medical Student and Psychology Graduate
From 25 £ /h
I'm able to provide support in a range of GCSE examinations including Maths, Science, English Literature, English Language, Religious Studies, Psychology and more. We'll work together on a plan to help you get to the next stage in your academic journey, after all you know yourself better than anyone. I'll provide you with the tools to revise in the most efficient and rewarding way possible while cutting down on overall revision time!
My experience:
I've got extensive experience supporting others in an academic and non-academic setting. I have six years’ experience tutoring students aged 4 - 16 years old. I worked with students on their work assignments as well as setting extra work to help students reach the next level in their potential. I use scientifically-ratified methods to ensure students are working to the highest level of efficiency. I am able to work with students with SEN, using scientific tools like Pictorial Exchange Program to support students in their academic and social skills while reducing the likelihood of “meltdowns.” Over those six years, I honed my ability to break down difficult topics into easily digestible lectures for each child. By using a person-centred approach, I helped the students learn in the manner most effective to them.
I have a degree in Psychology BSc from Royal Holloway, University of London (ranked 9th in the UK for Psychology). I achieved an upper-second class with honours (2:1). This includes a first-class final year project. I undertook classes such as Learning & Memory and Developmental Psychology which gave me insights into how to achieve the highest level of productivity and information retention - tools that I utilised to complete my degree. I'm currently studying Medicine.
While at university, I worked as a peer mentor where I provided individualised support to first year students. My caseload of students where those who were nervous upon their acceptance to university. I aided them in their transition to university by creating a safe space for them to approach me with their academic queries and social anxieties. I have excellent interpersonal skills that allowed me to build productive relationships with my students wherein they felt comfortable approaching me when in crisis.
I am currently a Recovery Worker, providing support to homeless individuals in London. I specialise in providing person-centred, personalised support to entrenched rough sleepers with particularly high and complex physical, mental and substance misuse support needs. I have an outstanding record of ensuring my clients stay off the street and move along in their recovery process. This is done by having a keen eye for assessing individuals, even those who are difficult to engage and creating realistic and productive action plans. Through my dedication to belief in uplifting others and identifying a shortfall in the care provided to my most vulnerable clients, I created a successful partnership with the Premier League’s Chelsea Football Club to provide one-to-one health and fitness support to homeless people in London.
Moreover, borne from a drive to give back to my local community while at University, I organised, planned and executed a school-based programme. I partnered with Age Exchange, a charity dedicated to reducing loneliness in society's most vulnerable populations, to design a ten-week programme. I used cutting edge reminiscence arts and tactile objects to help rejuvenate the memories of those with Alzheimer’s and Dementia. I liaised with local schools and care homes to link elderly individuals with local schools. Through this, I developed my ability to communicate efficiently and effectively online by creating a weekly newsletter for my volunteers, running a community page and keeping clear and open channels of communication with all parties. The programme was a tremendous success, earning the Queen's Award for Outstanding Voluntary Service which was presented by HRH Princess Anne. Furthermore, the Mayor of Runnymede came to visit, and it was featured in the local news. For my dedication to the voluntary service, I received a Gold Passport Award from Royal Holloway, University of London.
I believe I am the excellent candidate to help students fulfil their potential. I have excellent time management skills as evidenced by my exemplary community outreach work while studying towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I have the drive and patience to work with students who are struggling and the ambition to help those who would like to achieve more.

About Me
Hi!
My name's Sumaya! Lovely to meet you. I'm a first year medicine student who hopes to become a Paediatrician. I have a bachelor of honours in Psychology where I graduated with an upper second class with honours. I believe in "work smart, not hard" so I use scientifically tested techniques to ensure I study efficiently and effectively to increase memory retention.
I love working with others so I started my own business tutoring others when I was 15 years old. I had a number of clients ranging from 4 - 16 years old over the years, including SEN students. I enjoyed helping my students achieve their full potential. At the moment, I am a Recovery Worker helping homeless and rough sleepers in London obtain housing and holistic support. My role can be challenging, with a lot of no's from those who have been in the system for 30+ years, but I know how to quickly build warm and productive relationships. I've helped clients in crisis by staying calm and working proactively, not reactively. All my clients have achieved a positive move-ons including private rented accommodation.
I also love technology. I'm currently learning how to code through internet resources with the hopes of joining the health technology field using my expertise as a (future) Doctor. I want to reduce barriers in accessing good primary and secondary health care.
I'm a big Arsenal supporter too so you know I'm patient and resilient.
I'd love to work with you to help you reach the next level in your academic journey. Don't hesitate to reach out!
