Teaching Experience

For more than 12 years, I have worked alongside families who seek more than conventional tutoring. My practice provides highly personalised educational consultancy, academic mentoring and selective school admissions support, helping students realise their potential through thoughtful guidance, structured learning and long-term academic planning.

Over the course of my career, I have delivered more than 30,000 hours of one-to-one teaching and academic mentoring, supporting students across the United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Europe, the United States and New Zealand.

Many of the families I work with remain with me for several years, trusting me to guide their children through multiple stages of education—from primary school, through selective school admissions, GCSEs and beyond.

I have had the privilege of supporting students who have gone on to secure offers from many of the United Kingdom’s most academically selective grammar and independent schools, including:

  • Westminster School
  • King’s College School, Wimbledon
  • St Paul’s Girls’ School
  • Henrietta Barnett School
  • Latymer Upper School
  • Lady Eleanor Holles School
  • Hampton School
  • Tiffin School
  • Sutton Grammar School

alongside numerous other leading grammar and independent schools throughout London and the South East.

I have also successfully prepared students for:

  • 7+, 11+ and 13+ entrance examinations
  • GCSE Mathematics and English
  • UK Mathematics Trust (UKMT) Mathematical Challenges
  • IB Business Management
  • Home Education programmes
  • Long-term academic mentoring

Tutoring Approach

Every student possesses different strengths, learns differently and progresses at a different pace.

For this reason, I do not follow standard lesson plans or generic teaching programmes.

Every engagement begins with a comprehensive academic assessment, enabling me to understand the student’s current attainment, learning profile, aspirations and areas requiring development.

From this foundation, I create a bespoke academic strategy designed specifically for the individual.

Lessons combine subject expertise with examination technique, critical thinking, problem solving and independent learning, ensuring that students develop not only stronger academic performance but also the confidence and resilience required for long-term success.

Throughout the process, I work closely with parents, providing regular communication, progress reviews and strategic guidance to ensure every educational decision is made with clarity and purpose.

Huma has been amazing! She has been helping my son prepare for his math test, and he really liked her unique and very clear explanations. I will certainly ask Huma to help with the next test. Laura

We booked Huma to provide extra tuition for our daughter back in January 2024. Since then Huma has provided invaluable support and help. She is very approachable and able to adapt the lessons exactly to the required areas. We would have no hesitation in recommending Huma to support students to achieve higher grades.

Huma has been excellent. My daughter was struggling with maths at school at the start of Year 10, but weekly term-time sessions with Huma over the past 13 months have totally turned things around. As well as being extremely efficient and well organised, Huma is very friendly and approachable - she has really helped grow my daughter's confidence and reduce her anxiety levels in the run-up to GCSEs. Thank you so much, Huma!!

Working with Huma has been an absolute game-changer for my son. Her clear explanations made even the most challenging concepts feel manageable. My son gained an enormous confidence in his maths abilities thanks to her amazing efforts. He was offered a place at Tiffin. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to excel in maths.

Huma is a fantastic maths tutor. She is patient and gives my children confidence is their own abilities. She is really great at explaining tricky concepts in a way my children can understand and then retain. Thank you, Huma.
