My Passion & How I Inspire

I strongly believe that a studentā€™s enjoyment of a subject is vital to their success and lifelong learning. Through my diverse range of teaching experience, I have learnt to truly appreciate the individuality of each studentā€™s learning style. My creative flair allows me to tailor teaching methods to each pupilā€™s needs, whilst continuously developing ways to make learning fun! This includes utilising the studentā€™s interests and hobbies as a pathway of learning.

My experience as a dance teacher has instilled in me the importance of confidence building, and my role in healthcare allows me to continuously develop my person-centered communication skills. Along with this, my high level of organisation always ensures that well-structured lesson plans and homework are prepared. I am determined to help students achieve the grades that they need, with a true understanding of each topic. I look forward to working with you!

My Reviews

ā€œManisha really helped me to understand the areas in which I was lacking confidence in Chemistry A-Level. She was so patient and encouraging that I felt comfortable to push myself harder and actually achieve the grades I wanted. When I didnā€™t understand something, she explained it so clearly and even used anecdotes and acronyms, which I found particularly helpful.ā€ (Mousam, gained entry into Medical School)

ā€œI would highly recommend Manisha as a tutor. Her friendly and approachable nature makes you feel comfortable to ask questions, whilst her evidently strong work ethic motivates you to aim higher in your learning.ā€ (Joel)

ā€œShe is very determined and patient ā€“ she never gave up on me! She was able to really target the areas in which I was struggling and came up with new ways to develop my understanding.ā€ (Serena)
