In Malaysia, secondary education offers various pathways to cater to different academic needs and future aspirations. After completing primary education, students typically enter lower secondary school (Forms 1-3) and then proceed to upper secondary school (Forms 4-5). During these years, students can choose from several examination systems to gain their secondary school qualifications.

One popular alternative to the IGCSE is the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM), which is the national examination taken by Form 5 students. The SPM is recognised by local universities and some international institutions, making it a widely accepted qualification. Students studying in national schools follow the Malaysian curriculum, which culminates in the SPM exams.

Another option is the Malaysian Certificate of Education (MCE), equivalent to the O-Level exams. The MCE is another well-regarded qualification in Malaysia's education system. Additionally, some schools offer the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (IB MYP) for students aged 11-16, providing a globally recognised standard of education.

For those interested in an American curriculum, the Advanced Placement (AP) program is available in some international schools. This program allows students to take college-level courses and exams, potentially earning them college credit while still in secondary school.

Students can also consider the Unified Examination Certificate (UEC), particularly within Chinese independent schools. The UEC is recognised by many universities in Malaysia and abroad, especially in Taiwan, China, and Singapore.

These alternatives provide Malaysian students with multiple pathways to achieve their academic goals, ensuring that they can find a suitable education system that aligns with their future plans.

The cost of IGCSE tutoring in Malaysia typically falls within the range of 240MYR to 480MYR per hour. At TutorChase, IGCSE tutors start at 295MYR per hour. Actual prices may vary depending on factors such as the tutor's qualifications, experience, and subject specialisation.

At TutorChase, we provide online tutoring, which means we can offer our IGCSE tutoring services to students in any area across Malaysia. Our flexible and accessible online platform ensures that you can receive high-quality education regardless of your location.

Teaching mathematics is more than just imparting knowledge, it's about sparking curiosity. In my approach, I start by identifying the current proficiency level of the student and the specific areas they struggle with. I then tailor my lessons to focus on these areas, making sure to break down complex concepts into digestible parts.

For exam preparation, I familiarise my students with the format and type of questions they can expect in the papers. I provide them with comprehensive notes, worksheets, and past paper questions. This, in addition to conducting regular tests to track their progress, enables them to approach the exams with confidence.

I also believe in teaching beyond the curriculum - inspiring students to see the relevance and beauty of Maths in daily life, thereby fostering a love for the subject.

I have 6 years of experience tutoring Mathematics for both IGCSE and A-Level students. Over these years, I have delivered more than 1200 hours of classes, significantly improving the grades and understanding of over 80 students. In this journey, I've developed a great relationship with my students and their parents, often being appreciated for my patience and adaptability to each student's learning style.

Besides private tutoring, I have also conducted Maths workshop sessions for struggling students in several high schools in Kuala Lumpur. Here, I employed my strong communication skills to simplify complex mathematical problems and concepts for them. Furthermore, I volunteered as a mentor for an educational outreach program in Malaysia, where I guided underprivileged children in Maths.

Having taught people in the past from a very wide range of abilities, I can also understand that different people engage better with certain learning styles than others. I am therefore happy to teach any student at any ability, regardless of their background, and adapt my teaching style to their needs and preferences. I specialise in teaching BMAT/UCAT and Oxford Medicine Admissions as well as GCSE and A-Level Biology, Chemistry and Maths.

GCSE/A-level – I ask student what topic/area they would like me to help them with at the start of the lesson, then give them a brief overview of the topic by verbally explaining it to them, using a revision guide as a reference. After that, I would spend the remainder of the lesson going through practice questions on the said topic using worksheets.

BMAT – ask the student in advance of the lesson what topic/question type they would like to cover, then prepare a short presentation on how to tackle said question type. Then I would proceed by asking the student to tackle question sets using the techniques I just showed them with the given question type (either through past papers, or through question banks).

Medicine interviews – I have a diary of the questions that I was asked at both of the Oxford colleges I was interviewed at for medicine. Using these questions, I can draw upon this experience and go through strategies of how to tackle these question types, and provide more example questions for students to be able to answer to prepare them for Oxbridge interviews. As far as MMI preparation is concerned, I also still have many preparation documents I made when preparing for my medical interviews, and I can go through each of these to explain the important messages and strategies (such as the STAR approach) to employ when tackling a range of MMI stations. I can also utilise online question banks to provide further practice for interview style questions for both Oxbridge and MMI interviews for medicine applicants.


Having come from a humble state school background myself, I am looking to provide genuine insight and advice that I wish I could've imparted to somebody in a similar position to myself when I was in school or sixth form.

My overall approach is a precise one.

I always emphasize to all students the importance of the exam specification, outlining exactly what they need to know for their exams and using the wording they will need to use to make sure they get the marks in the mark schemes. I make this clear to help students be as Self-sufficient as possible when they are not in my lessons.

Maths: focus is on practice. Lessons often involve going through topics the student has identified as difficult or current, before setting homework to complete lots of questions using what they have learned.

Biology, Chemistry and Physics: Lessons are always tailored to student needs - I always ask if they are finding anything difficult and then work on this if appropriate. Focus is on working through the specification, often doing past paper questions and helping the student to improve how they express their answers in addition to helping with any gaps in their understanding which is identified from the paper questions.

I have been a full-time tutor for five years, covering all Sciences and Maths.

I have focused on students from year 10 and above, covering GCSE for all sciences and Maths; and A level for Chemistry, Biology and Maths. In addition, I have experience helping students to prepare their University applications. This has included tuition for the Natural Sciences Admissions Assessment for Cambridge and BMAT.

I have also worked with students on their personal statements and helped them prepare for interviews by providing mock interviews followed by written feedback.

Last year, I worked with one student applying for the Natural Sciences at Cambridge (helped with personal statement, NSAA and interview) - he was successful. I did the same with another a student applying to study Chemistry at Oxford - successful.

Lots of students have achieved above their original expectations in A level and GCSE exams after working with me. One particular success was a (capable) student who I taught the whole of IGCSE physics to (they are doing IB at school) and went on to achieve a grade 9.

I'm a PPE graduate from Oxford University, and I've had the privilege of teaching in schools for four years, consistently achieving an 'Outstanding' rating. I've also dedicated five years to tutoring students in KS4-5 subjects like English, Economics, Politics, including admissions. I excel in providing an individualized approach, custom-tailored to address the distinct requirements of students with diverse backgrounds and abilities.

Extended Essay

In my approach to tutoring English and aiding students in exam preparation, I employ a two-pronged strategy, with a focus on nurturing both their writing skills and their depth of understanding.


Firstly, my primary goal is to empower students to develop and articulate their own ideas effectively. To achieve this, I find it most valuable to work with the student's own written work. Together, we explore how to comprehend the essence of the question and structure their responses in a manner that aligns with the assessment criteria. This comprehensive approach takes into account various facets, including essay structure, writing techniques, and the skillful use of language to convey ideas persuasively.


Secondly, I place great emphasis on content support. In this aspect, I prefer to engage in a productive dialogue with the student. We discuss the literary texts in depth, examining different perspectives, approaches, and interpretations. Through this interactive exchange, the student not only gains a richer understanding of the material but also hones their analytical skills, enabling them to provide more insightful analyses of the works.


This dynamic and collaborative process fosters a deeper appreciation of literature and enhances the student's ability to engage critically with complex literary texts, ultimately equipping them with the tools needed for success in their exams.

Since September 2022, I've been tutoring, and since January 2018, I've been a part-time university lecturer at the University of the Witwatersrand. In my capacity as a lecturer, I've developed, taught, and assessed a wide range of literature courses, spanning from Beowulf to contemporary works.


I also gained experience as a tutor from January 2014 to December 2015, specializing in English education for students from preschool to grade 12.


I worked as a university writing consultant between July 2013 and December 2014, providing composition assistance to both undergraduate and postgraduate students across various disciplines. In my role as an undergraduate tutor from January 2010 to December 2011, I focused on academic writing, including composition, critical thinking, argumentation, editing, and presentation skills.


From February 2019 to September 2021, I had the opportunity to work as a contracted textbook writer, concentrating on English literature topics like poetry (Renaissance to present), The Handmaid's Tale, The Theory of Flight, and exam preparation.

I recently graduated from The University of Oxford with a first-class degree in Experimental Psychology, and I am currently undertaking an MSc in Clinical Psychology at UCL. I am passionate about the subjects I teach, and I hope to inspire the same enthusiasm in the students I work with.

Psychology

I am passionate about the subjects I teach, and I hope to inspire the same enthusiasm in the students I work with. I aim to foster a supportive and productive lesson environment, as from my own experience as a student I know how important it is to have an encouraging teacher.

I am very flexible in my tuition approach, tailoring my style of teaching to best suit the student. I will spend the first session with a student building an understanding of their goals and specific subject areas that they would like extra support with, and of which methods of learning they find most effective. I can then tailor all further sessions to the needs of the student to make the best use of our time together.

In addition to providing learning materials for tutorial sessions, I am happy to set and/ or to provide detailed feedback on further work to be completed outside of tutorials.

My sessions are designed to result in a strong understanding of subject content and of how to effectively apply this information in an exam setting.

TSA and Oxbridge application

Having recently succeeded in passing through the Oxbridge application process, I have a thorough understanding of all its elements. This places me in an excellent position to help with writing impressive personal statements, preparing for interviews, and revising for entrance exams.
In preparation for the TSA, I will guide the student through problem-solving approaches for different question styles, leaving them confident in their ability to answer any types of question that might appear in the exam. I can also provide guidance and feedback on how to structure a coherent and well-reasoned argument for the essay section of the exam.

I offer practice interviews, in which I will assist the student in learning how to produce strong responses to typical Oxbridge interview questions.

Psychology

I generally tailor sessions to focus on structuring coherent arguments, as this builds up the student’s essay technique while also solidifying their understanding of the subject content.

I have found that challenging students to compose and defend arguments through discussion-based activities is especially useful for enhancing the student’s confidence.

Maths

When preparing material for tutorial sessions, I will collate questions that target gaps in the student’s knowledge, and we may revisit questions from homework exercises that the student had particular difficulty with. We can then work through the problem-solving process together, leaving the student confident in all areas of the subject curriculum.




I have gained extensive experience tutoring secondary school students of a range of ages and abilities over the last four years.

I also have experience guiding sixth form students through the Oxbridge admissions process. I recently worked with an A-Level student who hoped to study at the University of Oxford. Across the course of three months working together it was wonderful to see him progress from achieving chance-level performance on the TSA entrance exam to attaining a pass.

I am currently pursuing a degree in Mathematics at the University of Warwick and have accumulated two years of tutoring experience in Mathematics and Physics for GCSE and A-Level students. My enthusiasm for Mathematics and a strong commitment to teaching have driven me to not only understand the subject deeply but also to share this knowledge and passion with others, helping them achieve their academic goals.

STEP

I have a passion for Mathematics and teaching.

I have tutored all ability levels, and have even coached and led the UKMT team challenge team at my school.

I like to teach through examples, spending the first part of each lesson on explaining the topic, and then the rest of the lesson going through examples.

I like to spend 40-50 minutes going through examples. My teaching style is flexible, and I have tutored many students at many different ability levels.


At Sixth Form, I was the student head of mathematics, during which I had the opportunity to lead the student mentoring scheme.

During year 12, I was a mentor on the program, and I mentored GCSE Maths and Additional Maths to many different students and ability levels. In my final year at Sixth Form, I had the responsibility of leading and organising these sessions.

I was also a mentor. I have also privately tutored a couple of GCSE Maths students. Some of my students have achieved grade 9s in Maths and Additional Maths at GCSE.

I ensure my students fully understand the concepts they are learning, not just to memorise statements or the ability to follow a procedure, but to understand why the procedure works.

For the facts that do need to be memorised, I use a variety of long-term memory techniques. I will also teach exam technique, to understand what each mark in the question is asking for.

We will go through and understand the mark scheme as well as the question paper, enabling students to pick up marks even when they don't know the answers.

I believe students should be happy and relaxed in order to reach their full learning potential.

I understand that every student learns and stores information in different ways, meaning they require different teaching and explaining methods, and I tailor my teaching methods to meet each student's individual needs.

In particular, I have experience in teaching for dyslexia, and have found it interesting to understand how a dyslexic brain works.

The concept of teaching has always deeply resonated with me. Having been home-schooled up to the GCSE level, I have personally experienced the profound influence a dedicated tutor can have on a student's learning journey. There's a uniquely rewarding feeling in grasping a challenging concept thoroughly, and then realizing that you have mastered it to the extent that you can effectively assist someone else in understanding it too.

Ibrahim - Inspired tutor with home education experience | TutorChase

Mathematics Tuition Approach

When it comes to excelling in Maths, practice makes perfect. Therefore, after teaching my student the theory, I ensure we spend at least half of the session working through past paper questions

Physics Tuition Approach

Physics is very much based on understanding complicated concepts. If one understands them properly, they are bound to excel. Therefore, I always take the time to explain, and then re-explain difficult concepts to my student, even if it takes the whole session; we can’t move on if they don’t understand it.

Chemistry Tuition Approach

Chemistry requires students to retain a lot of information. Therefore, I go through memory techniques with the student, and help them to make flash cards. I also ensure that they continually practice regurgitating that information, because it’s one thing to retain something in one’s memory, but quite another to be able to return to return to it at the required moment.



I have been tutoring students in the three Sciences and Mathematics at GCSE and A Level for over a year. This has enabled me to understand what approach to take when trying instill an interest for the subject in my student. I recall that one of my GCSE Physics students despised the subject when I first began teaching her because she didn’t understand it at all. However, five months passed of me teaching her on a weekly basis, and by the end of it she had a keen interest in Physics and had also been predicted an 8 in the subject (which is equivalent to an A*).

As a postgraduate student specializing in Materials Science, with undergraduate degrees in Physics and Neuroimaging, I offer Physics and Maths tutoring to students seeking to enhance their understanding and performance in these subjects. My academic journey has equipped me with a deep understanding of both theoretical concepts and practical applications in these fields. In addition to tutoring, I play a pivotal role in fostering academic curiosity and support at my college by organizing guided tours and designing interactive Maths/Physics sessions. These initiatives are aimed at assisting students interested in pursuing higher education at the University, highlighting my commitment to promoting educational inclusivity and excellence.

My own success in Physics and Maths is largely owed to my passion for the subjects. Therefore, I aim to not only improve understanding of content, but to encourage enjoyment through real life practical examples to engage and fascinate.

Physics Tuition Approach

As a Physics tutor my objective is to identify problem areas and provide an alternative perspective. Lessons are interactive and designed to deliver pertinent material step-by-step without assuming knowledge or taking giant and poorly explained 'leaps of faith'. Building a strong foundation and enjoying the physics is critical before moving onto more challenging questions. Remember, the physics may be theoretical, but the fun will be real...

Maths Tuition Approach

Success in Maths relies on more than just learning content, it requires you to apply principles. Therefore, my approach begins with imparting a clear understanding of the concepts and progresses to applying these concepts to a multitude of practice questions. Sessions are tailored to focus on the areas in which students struggle, with the aim of developing understanding through worked examples and derivations.

Oxbridge Graduate Admissions Tuition Approach

The personal statement is exactly that; personal. Therefore, I encourage students to construct it in a manner that reflects their own unique interests and that demonstrates passion for their subject. Graduate study also requires a great deal of independence. Therefore, I would aim to help prospective applicants create a personal statement that demonstrates what actions they have proactively taken to pursue deeper understanding of their chosen field and that conveys relevant information in a concise manner.

I've been tutoring for a decade, both online and in-person, collaborating with various agencies and colleges.


My primary focus has been teaching AS and A-Level Maths and Further Maths. Additionally, I've provided support for exams like the Mathematics Admission Test (MAT) for the University of Oxford, the Sixth Term Examination Papers (STEP) for Cambridge, and Additional Further Mathematics (Edexcel).


I hold a full qualification in Further Education, equivalent to a PGCE, acquired in 2016. I bring substantial experience in applying mathematics to real-life scenarios and effectively conveying complex concepts to non-specialists.

I'm a teacher with a youthful spirit, known for being friendly and approachable. I bring a wealth of experience in working with students from various cultural and ethnic backgrounds, and I truly appreciate the richness that diversity adds to the learning experience. My expertise spans across different educational levels, encompassing the IB, IGCSE, A-level, German Abitur, and Swiss/Austrian Matura systems, with a strong focus on Mathematics.
