Hi, I’m Aidin—a professional tutor and academic coach with over twelve years of experience, as well as a doctor, scientist, and engineer. My background in medicine, chemistry, and engineering has given me a deep understanding of how people learn, but my true passion lies in helping students develop the skills and mindset to succeed independently.
I believe that learning isn’t the challenge—it’s finding the right approach. I don’t just teach subjects—I coach students on how to learn effectively, ensuring they build confidence, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities that extend far beyond the classroom. My approach blends academic coaching, Socratic questioning, and personalised mentoring, allowing students to develop lifelong learning skills rather than just preparing for the next exam.
What Can I Offer?
My approach extends beyond traditional tutoring—I focus on Academic Coaching, helping students develop the skills, techniques, and mindset to not only succeed in any subject but also apply these skills beyond school and into their future careers and life. I incorporate:
✔ Socratic Questioning, encouraging deeper thinking, problem-solving, and independent learning
✔ A structured coaching framework, improving learning efficiency and adaptability across all subjects
✔ Confidence-building strategies, reducing anxiety and fostering long-term motivation
✔ A tailored approach, adapting to each student's strengths and challenges, ensuring they gain lifelong learning skills
✔ Encouraging curiosity and creativity, nurturing students’ natural inquisitiveness to help them become more engaged, innovative thinkers
By fostering curiosity and independent thought, I help students build a mindset that thrives beyond the classroom, empowering them to confidently explore and solve challenges in any field they pursue.
However my coaching goes beyond academics—it extends into life coaching too. I encourage students to think bigger, helping them build confidence, resilience, and problem-solving skills that apply to all areas of life.
My Experience & Credentials
• Doctor of Medicine (MbCHb)
• Undergraduate Master’s (MChem) in Chemistry
• Postgraduate Master’s (MSc) in Chemical Engineering with Distinction
• Award-winning entrepreneur
• 12+ years of tutoring experience, with students progressing into top universities studying Medicine, Engineering, Science, and beyond
• Extensive experience supporting students with additional learning needs
• Proven track record of helping students progress from GCSE Foundation levels (Grades 4/5) to top grades (8/9).
My Approach: A Unique Coaching Framework
Many students struggle with learning not because of ability, but because they don’t know how to learn effectively. I’ve developed a simple yet powerful four-step coaching framework that applies to any subject:
• Understand – Developing deeper comprehension through questioning and discussion
• Memorise – Effective recall techniques, active learning, and spaced repetition
• Apply – Practising questions, refining knowledge, and real-world application
• Review & Reflect – Identifying areas for improvement and setting clear goals
This structured cycle ensures that students build strong, adaptable learning skills that go beyond just passing exams. By handing students the right tools, techniques, and mindset, I ensure they become independent learners who can take control of their own progress—both academically and beyond.
Services I Offer
• Short-term, high-intensity tuition (exam prep, crash courses)
• Long-term, structured academic coaching (study strategies, mindset training)
• Metacognitive learning techniques (learning how to learn effectively)
• Confidence-building & motivation strategies
• Medical school entrance exam & interview support
• Support beyond lessons, with structured study guidance
The End Goal: Independent, Confident Learners
My ultimate goal is to empower students with the ability to learn independently. By focusing on both subject mastery and learning strategies, I ensure that they don’t just improve academically—but develop skills that will serve them throughout life.
Thank you for reading, and I look forward to working with you!
