A brief introduction
I am an academic tutor based in Lahore, currently reading Law at the Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), where I hold a place on the Dean's Honour List. I have been tutoring since 2022, working with students locally and internationally across a range of subjects and exams.
My core areas of expertise include 11+ Admissions preparation (GL and CEM), DSAT and PSAT coaching, and Mathematics and English from primary level through to O-Level. I scored 1500 on the SAT myself, and I have helped students improve their scores from around 1000 to 1400+. I have also supported students in successfully gaining admission into UK grammar schools.
Beyond exam preparation, I mentor students through university applications to institutions such as LUMS, IBA, and universities in the USA and UK — covering personal statements, essays, and overall profile building.
My teaching approach is built on strengthening concepts first, then developing exam technique and strategy tailored to each student individually. I track progress regularly and adapt every lesson to where the student actually is, not where they are supposed to be.
I offer both online and in-person sessions, and I bring the same level of commitment to every student regardless of their starting point.
Tutoring Experience
I have been tutoring since 2022, working with students one-on-one and in small groups both online and in-person.
My tutoring covers 11+ Admissions preparation (GL and CEM), DSAT and PSAT coaching, and Mathematics and English from primary level through to O-Level. Having scored 1500 on the SAT myself, I bring direct insight into what these exams require. I have helped students raise their SAT scores from around 1000 to 1400+ and supported several students in gaining admission into UK grammar schools.
Alongside subject tutoring, I assist students with university applications to institutions including LUMS, IBA, and universities in the USA and UK — covering personal statements, application essays, and scholarship guidance.
Teaching Method
My teaching is built around the individual student. Before anything else, I take time to understand where each student stands, what their strengths are, where the gaps are, and how fast they learn. From there I build lessons around them rather than following a fixed template.
I always focus on concepts first. Once the foundation is solid, I move into exam technique, practice, and strategy. Students perform far better when they genuinely understand the material rather than relying on memorised shortcuts.
I track progress regularly and adjust my approach as the student grows. Every session has a clear goal and I make sure we are always moving forward in a purposeful way.
