A bit about Amna

I am a scientist with a PhD degree in Biomedical Sciences and Engineering and an A-level chemistry examiner. I am an expert tutor for GCSE/IGCSE, A-level, IB (SL and HL), and SAT II chemistry with 12 years of teaching and lab research experience. - IB chemistry (SL, HL) - A-level chemistry (examiner) - GCSE/IGCSE chemistry only My lessons will be adapted to your needs. During the first lesson, we usually go through a short diagnostic test together (based on the curriculum you're studying). This helps me to identify your strengths and weaknesses and to create a personalised study plan for you. 2008 As a teacher I chose to specialise in specific curricula, which are IB, A-level, GCSE/IGCSE, SAT II, AP chemistry. I do not teach students younger than 14 years old, I do not teach college students, I do not teach undergraduates. This strategy allows me to hone my teaching program to achieve the maximum grade increase in the shortest time frame. The key to my students success is: 1. The perfect study plan (knowing what you really need to know for the exam is 50% of the success) 2. Simple explanations of difficult concepts 3. Lots of practice of exam-style questions with rigorous explanations This is what my students say about my lessons and teaching style (copy-pasted from other platforms where I teach and from correspondence with parents): ===Lena (GCSE)=== June 6, 2024 Amna, I am truly grateful for all the support you have given K. throughout the year. You have managed to change his mindset about Chemistry. He have not even once showed any unwillingness about having his lesson with you, I do not know how you did it! He was a bit sad today, telling me it was his last lesson with you. And he was almost jumping with joy to be stopping his lessons with other tutors. So thank you so very much, Amna, for everything. You were also a great stability in K.'s week and home work. If this is okay I will pass on your email to my colleagues if they need a tutor for their children, I can't think of anyone I would recommend more. If you have a website and would like to to write a review, please do not hesitate to send me a link. Please feel free to quote my words too. And if you need any recommendation to anyone about your teaching in the future, please let me know and it will be my pleasure. I wish you the very best and send you gratitude. ===Aleksandra (IB HL)=== 5* May 6, 2024 Ms. Amna is truly one of the best chemistry tutors anyone can find! She helped me feel very confident in my IB HL chemistry course and in finding a passion for chemistry. She also made every lesson very enjoyable whilst being incredibly kind:) I truly recommend Ms. Amna to anyone who wants to understand chemistry on a deeper level. ===Meda (IB HL)=== 5* May 5, 2024 Amna has helped me greatly to understand the complex topics in chemistry. She is very patient, helpful and gives great explanations. I definitely recommend her to anyone struggling with Chemistry. ===Natalia (IGCSE, A-level)=== 5* February 4, 2024 How lucky we are to have met Amna at *** - her professionalism, results-oriented attitude, skillful methodology, passion for the subject and genuine charm - let my son Mikhail not only understand, but also feel the chemistry, which makes this subject more and more favourite for him) Michael has been working on his IGCSE preparation with Amna for several months – he always enjoys going to class and admires how Amna can explain clearly and intelligibly even the most complex concepts. It’s a great pleasure to work with Amna. We are deeply grateful to Amna! ===Martyna (medical school test)=== 5* September 27, 2023 Words can't describe how grateful I am to have found Amna on ***! We've been working together for few weeks now and I genuinely feel more and more confident in my abilities with each lesson we have. We're focusing on IMAT preparation (med school entrance exam in Italy). I love that Amna always explains everything in such an easy and straightforward way. Every class feels extremely productive and she really makes chemistry enjoyable and interesting, which is something I never thought I would say about this subject. I highly, highly recommend Amna as your chemist From C to A in less than 3 months with 1 lesson per week. 1. PhD in Biomedical Sciences and Engineering 2. MSc in Biophysics - IB chemistry (SL and HL) - A-level chemistry - GCSE and IGCSE chemistry Travelling
