Tutor Profile

Fatema

Private Biology and Chemistry Tutor in London

I am currently a working professional with over 3,000 hours of teaching experience, I specialize in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths, and English from 11+ through to GCSE and A-Level. My students consistently achieve outstanding results: over 90% improve by at least one grade within a term, and many secure Grade 8/9s at GCSE and A/A* at A-Level, with successful applications to top schools and universities.

I know what examiners want because I’ve worked directly with assessment and mark scheme design at Pearson (Edexcel) and gained first-hand insight into AQA mark schemes. This means I can teach students how to think like examiners, structure their answers for maximum marks, and avoid common pitfalls.

Academically, I hold a Physics degree from a leading London university and personally gained entry into KCS Wimbledon 16+, proving I know how to excel in competitive exams. I’ve also worked with a major tutoring company, giving me the skills to tailor lessons for every type of learner.

Parents choose me because I combine insider knowledge with a calm, encouraging teaching style that builds confidence and drives results. Whether your child needs to catch up, secure top grades, or prepare for high-stakes exams, I provide lessons that are effective, personalised, and results-driven.

If you’re looking for a tutor who understands both the subject and the system - and who consistently helps students achieve their goals - I would be delighted to help your child succeed.

The Parent: Fatema has been a godsend and a pleasure to work with. We thoroughly recommend her and will absolutely call on her again for future tutoring needs. Her academic knowledge and experience is outstanding attested by her proven methods, her personal results and impressive amount of tutoring experience. Fatema is an extremely professional, knowledgeable, warm and likeable person whom will definitely advance your learning goals as she did for ours. We wish her every success! The Student: Fatema is very approachable and always made sure my questions were answered both in and out of sessions. She has been so helpful in preparing me for my GCSE’s, I was extremely anxious about my upcoming exams due to gaps in my knowledge caused by online learning and absent teachers. Hardly 5 weeks in and my mock results reflect great improvement and it felt like we’d barely scratched the surface. Fatema went through all the topics I would be tested on in thorough detail and at a pace which I could process the content most efficiently. By the time I reached exam season I was confident that I would do well and be pleased with my results. Fatema also taught me skills and techniques for learning and revising that I can apply to my further education. For these reasons I would highly recommend Fatema as a tutor.

Fatema has been patient and kind with my shy 10 year old who has come out each time more confident and excited about maths. Highly recommend!
