Perfect! My son did his GCSEs during the CoViD period - Oct 2020 to Jun 22

Although very capable, he never had the disposition of the natural academic who would be engrossed and engaged with passion in their studies. Coupled with a lack of self discipline and prone to getting distracted, studying from home for the entire year 10, took a devastating toll on his academic perfomance. The results of the early asessments into Year 11 made it absolutely clear the situation was particularly bleak with the grades in Combined Sciences and Maths predicted to be 5

After coming across Raj's profile on Superprof, I contacted him in December 2021. He tried to establish a holistic understanding about my son his character, nature, aptitude and struggles. He asked about my expectations from the lessons and then managed them realistically. He made it quite clear that I shall have an equally pivotal role to play in the upcoming months to ensure that my son is disciplined and and applies himself as required

We were then fortunate enough to visit him in person for the introductory session and that clinched the deal. Raj has a distinctly striking sincere, engaging and humorous demeanour. That helped to break the ice with my son and put him at ease and comfort right from get-go and established such a strong rapport that made my son motivated and eager looking forward to his next lesson. I noted that level of engagement in my son from the very first lesson. I distinctly remember my son mentioning after the first few lessons how he was now enjoying Biology which had become his favourite science - which he used to struggle with the most at school

The other aspect which stood out with Raj is his professionalism when it came to preparing supplementary material to help with his lessons. It is clinical. He is armed and prepared with quick reference revision notes and has a very firm grasp on the textbooks that can help most effectively and efficiently at different stages

Once the lessons started and Raj had a better feel of the effort required, he guided me on how best and how often to plan for lessons and even calmed my nerves. He was extremely accommodating in making himself available during especially around the holiday periods to ensure that the momentum was not lost and the ground was covered

As difficult as it is to get blood out of a stone, I managed to get the following feedback from my son about Raj

- Thoroughly welcoming, engaging making lessons humorous and enjoyable
- Persistently striving to ensure that he provides all the help that may be needed

At the end of his GCSEs my son attained a 7 across the board in Science and Maths - such a spectacular result in just over four months - and in such a way that made the journey so enjoyable and fun for my son rather than a hard grind

It has been an absolute privilege to come across someone like Raj and his temperament

Perfect! Raj tutors my daughter in Maths,Phydics,Chemistry and Biology.
Before Raj, she got really low scores in tests at school in the above subjects but now, NOW… she is doing so well in Maths, she moved up a set! In the sciences, she has moved up from 40% to 60%!
She is now so confident! In 9 months there is a big change!

Raj has been working with my son for a little while and he really enjoys his creative approach to lessons with him. Raj is excellent at adapting his lesson style for my sons needs rather than simply following a curriculum and this is not always an easy thing for a teacher. Raj has extensive subject knowledge meaning he can easily answer my son's questions and challenge his critical thinking skills. Most importantly my son thoroughly enjoys his lessons with Raj and comes away having retained what he has learned during their discussions. Raj is quick to respond to queries and ready and willing to help. I would highly recommend him.

Science , Y10 covering ( C1, B1, P1, C2, B2 and P2 ). Raj was a last minute tutor for our 15 year old son, within a month of sitting his first year GCSE Science exams. We are so please we found him. He helped establish the foundations which were somewhat lacking at my son`s schools and covered all the topics throughly. Exam results will give a true picture but my son is much more comfortable with the subject.

My son took double sciences in IGCSE last year. When he took mock exams at school in February, the result were not good and I found out that he was struggling with Physics and Chemistry. However, with the tutor`s help, he was able to gain double A*.
He is a passionate and engaging teacher and I am pleased with his way of teaching.

It was wonderful to discover a tutor who not only understands what a student needs to excel in Science and aths GCSE but also teaches with passion and enthusiasm so that my daughter leaves the lessons highly motivated. The instruction is clear and always unravels the intricacies that have been left untouched by other teachers. He is efficient and organised and listens to both the parent and child, in order to understand their requirements. He is an exceptional teacher.

Find out more about Raj

When did you develop an interest in your chosen field and in private tutoring?
My interest in teaching began over 15 years ago through real, day‑to‑day interactions with students. Private tutoring gave me a clearer window into a child’s mindset and a genuine opportunity to transform not just their academic confidence, but their self‑belief more broadly. When my students began securing Oxbridge places, that motivation became even stronger.
Tell us more about the subject you teach, the topics you like to discuss with students (and possibly those you like a little less).
I teach all the sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) and Mathematics, and I also mentor students for various challenges and Olympiad exams. I enjoy breaking down concepts, simplifying the logic, and helping students truly understand the fundamentals. Topics that involve reasoning, problem‑solving, and real‑life applications excite me the most. I enjoy rote‑learning‑heavy areas a little less, because they can limit creativity and deeper understanding.
Did you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you?
Yes. While I was doing research at university, I had a teacher who never raised his voice, never made me feel small, and always believed I had potential that was simply waiting to be unlocked. His calm confidence and his ability to make difficult concepts feel simple left a lasting impression on me. I try to carry that same spirit into my own teaching.
What do you think are the qualities required to be a good tutor?
A good tutor needs a blend of qualities:

Patience- because every child learns at a different pace.
Clarity- simplifying concepts is an art.
Empathy- understanding the student’s emotional state is as important as understanding their academic level.
Consistency- showing up with the same energy and commitment in every session.
Accountability- results matter, and a tutor must take ownership of the child’s progress.
Provide a valuable anecdote related to your subject or your days at school.
I once taught a student who was terrified of mathematics. He also had special educational needs and additional challenges. His concern was simple: “I just don’t like Maths.” I suggested we try one topic each week, slowly and step by step. By GCSE, he scored a grade 9. That transformation was extremely satisfying for me and reinforced my belief in gradual, confidence‑based learning.
What were the difficulties or challenges you faced or still facing in your subject?
The biggest challenge is not the subject itself but the mindset students bring. Many children approach academic study with fear, hesitation, or a belief that they are “not good enough.” My challenge and my mission is to break that mental barrier. Once the fear goes, learning accelerates naturally and confidence builds quickly.
Do you have a particular passion? Is it teaching in general or an element of the subject or something completely different?
My passion is transformation: seeing a student evolve from uncertainty to confidence. Teaching is simply the medium. Whether it’s an academic subject, emotional intelligence, or life skills, I enjoy guiding students to discover their strengths and realise what they are truly capable of. I have been recognised at national level for my voluntary services in this area.
What makes you a Superprof (besides answering these interview questions :-P)?
What makes me a Superprof is my commitment to each student’s journey. I teach with passion, personalise every session, and take responsibility for results. Parents trust me, students enjoy learning with me, and I ensure that every recommendation given to me is honoured with excellence. For me, tutoring is a mission to uplift, empower, and transform.
