A bit about Rajvir S

Hi! My name is Rajvir and I am currently a 3rd Year Medical Student at Brighton and Sussex Medical School. I have been tutoring for almost 5 years in GCSE Maths and Science, A-Level Psychology and 11+. Having sat the new GCSE and A-Level specifications, I am well-informed on the new examination styles with an extensive question bank and resources tailored for student use. My lessons are personalised to meet the needs of each individual student as I appreciate that everyone has their own unique learning style, requirements and areas where they need support. I specialise in tutoring GCSE Maths and Science, A-Level Psychology and helping students prepare for their 11+ entrance exams. I appreciate that all subjects are equally valuable and ensure my resources are up-to-date and of high quality for all subjects. The length of my lessons is usually 1-2 hours per session depending on the age of the student and their request. My lessons usually begin with a quick-fire starter to ease the student into the session - this is usually a past paper question based on a topic from the previous session or a mini-workout to build up to the topic of the session. At the start of the session, I will give the student a breakdown of what I will be covering in the session which allows them to communicate where they might struggle the most and allows me to dedicate sufficient time to these areas. I believe that students learn best when given opportunities to practise what they have learnt so I integrate the teaching of concepts with giving the student the opportunity to answer questions and practise throughout the session. I tend to break up topics into bite-sized chunks to help students process the information easily. I try incorportating visual aids and mnemonics into most of my sessions to aid students with recall. Each session will include exam questions for the student to practise in session as well as additional questions set as homework to support their learning outside of the sessions. I first started tutoring after sitting my GCSEs (new spec) meaning I had a wealth of knowledge and insight into how students learn best, the areas where they commonly struggle and where they usually lack support. I have now been tutoring for almost 5 years (both in-person and online). I have tutored both large groups (up to 20 students) as well as 1-1. My lessons are tailored to their own individual learning style - I use interactive activities, provide summarised notes, help focus their revision on common exam topics and provide them with an extensive bank of questions. All exam boards for KS3 and GCSE Maths. All exam boards for KS3 and GCSE Biology and Chemistry. AQA for A-Level Psychology. 11+ Entrance Exams (including verbal and non-verbal reasoning) GCSEs (Grade 9/8s) A-Level (A*/As) Currently a second year medical student at Brighton & Sussex Medical School.
