About Zahra
Hey there! I am a third-year university student majoring in Physical Sciences and minoring in Environmental Studies at Yale-NUS College. I completed physics maths and chemistry A-Levels at Henrietta Barnett School (2019-2021). Previously I attended Mill Hill School (2017-2019) and achieved eight 9s, one 8 and one 7 in my GCSEs. Based on my academic merit and community engagement I was awarded the Wu Hsioh Kwang scholarship to Yale-NUS university in Singapore.
My past experience working as a teaching assistant at Religious Education School taught me the importance of individualistic learning. I supported a girl with additional needs by working with her family and class teacher on how to ensure she is engaged, and that the learning environment is inclusive. I have also tutored a variety of GCSE subjects, especially in the maths and sciences. As your tutor I would adapt lessons plans in the way that best suits you through a mixture of interactive activities, while stimulating all the senses through auditory, visual and kinaesthetic methods.
My educational journey was varied – I have attended 10 educational institutions across 4 continents. This experience means that I constantly adapt my techniques and attitudes towards learning in order to take control of my education.
I wholly understand the stress of exams and the challenges and pressures that school life brings. I will do my best to ensure you have up to date information on the syllabi, give you tips on how to study effectively and support you in preparing for exams through sharing resources, tackling challenging past papers and help to create revision schedules that suit your way of learning. All my students will develop strong exam technique and learn how to predict the types of questions that could arise - you will befriend the syllabus!
Through my passion for sign language, I have led at clubs at schools and during lockdown, I created an online course Talking Hands ((concealed information) and run weekly online sign language classes for all students age 8-60+ years old. I believe the key to success in learning is utilising opportunities through both building your confidence and witnessing physical evidence of improvement in your work (you can’t go wrong with ticking off an accountable list – accomplishment is the most satisfying feeling!)
Lastly, I applied and was accepted into universities in the United Kingdom, Canada, the USA and Singapore; I am more than happy to advise on applications whether it be finding scholarships/financial aid, personal statements, essays or interviews.
I look forward to helping you develop as your tutor!

Zahra has been a close acquaintance and I have been witnessing her incredible teaching skills for a few years now . Zahra's teaching style is exceptional, marked by patience, clarity, and adaptability which are tailored to meet the needs of each student. It is evident that she strives to develop a supportive learning environment - first by understanding the student's current abilities and then pushing them to reach to their full potential. She encourages her students to ask questions to strengthen their understanding. Moreover, her interactive teaching style helps students retain information for longer whilst also helping them feel confident on the topic.
Having Zahra as my GCSE chemistry tutor was a blessing- she explained everything so simply and really acred about my understanding of the subject. chemistry can be complex but she made it so much easier to grasp. I learnt several exam techniques which helped me to do well and predict the style of questions highly reducing my exam stress levels. She suggested excellent resources and gave extra time and effort to help out- she will be a great tutor to you!
I highly recommend Zahra to be your tutor - she was incredibly supportive and helped me improve my GCSE maths grade from a 6 to an 8!
I am naturally much more drawn to humanities but after being tutored in maths by Zahra I learnt to really enjoy this subject and this was highly influenced by herff de passion for maths. She is so patient, is always happy to explain concepts in different ways and also helped me create a revision timetable that ensured I kept up with the work. Through her teaching, I learnt how to tackle the toughest questions and now am pursuing maths to further study. Thank you so much Zahra!View more recommendations
