About Zhauni
Hello, my name is Zhauni, and I am an experienced tutor with over 6 years of experience supporting more than 60 students in Maths and English. I specialise in building confidence, motivation, and positive learning habits, helping students to develop the skills and self-belief they need to succeed both inside and outside the classroom.
I thoroughly enjoy tutoring and working with students to improve their confidence and motivation towards learning. Many of the students I support initially struggle with confidence, motivation, or engagement with learning. One of my strengths is helping students overcome these barriers, developing positive attitudes towards learning, and realising their full potential. I believe that every child can achieve great things when they are given the right support, encouragement, and learning environment.
If you are interested in me becoming your tutor, please feel free to contact me :)

My tutoring approach is centred around making learning fun, engaging, and accessible. By building strong, trusting relationships with both students and families, I create a supportive environment where learners feel comfortable, valued, and motivated to succeed. My goal is not only to help students make academic progress but also to foster resilience, independence, and a genuine love of learning.
I have extensive experience working with children and young people with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including dyslexia, dyspraxia, autism, ADHD, anxiety, and social and emotional difficulties. Drawing on my background in psychology, I adapt my teaching style to suit each student's individual needs and learning preferences, ensuring lessons are engaging, personalised, and manageable.
I hold a BSc in Psychology and an MSc in Developmental and Educational Psychology, and I am currently pursuing a PhD in Educational, Child and Adolescent Psychology. This academic background has given me a strong understanding of how children learn and develop, which I incorporate into my tutoring practice through evidence-based learning strategies.
I offer Maths and English tuition for students aged 5–14 (KS1–KS3). Whether your child needs support with confidence, homework, study skills, or specific areas of the curriculum, I provide personalised lessons designed to help them make meaningful progress whilst enjoying the learning process.
Lessons typically last 1.5 hrs and include:
• A starter activity
• Introduction to the lesson topic and objective
• Guided teaching and learning
• Interactive tasks and games to reinforce learning
• A Plenary Activity
I also offer:
• Homework support
• Study skills development
• Support with organisation and positive learning habits
I look forward to supporting your child on their learning journey and helping them grow in confidence, motivation, and academic success.
All lessons are delivered online.

Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
My sister has been having maths lessons with Zhauni for a while now, and it's been lovely to see how much her confidence and understanding have grown. What I appreciate most is how patient and encouraging she is, and the way she explains things in a way that actually click. Seeing my sister go from feeling unsure and stressed with certain topics (maths) to approaching them with much more confidence, especially as we’re approaching exam season, has been a really positive experience, and it's clear how much she cares about helping her students succeed. I've also known her personally for a number of years, and her patience, kindness, and dedication shine through in everything she does. While I'm fortunate to call her a close friend, all credit goes to her own character and professionalism. She's genuinely invested in helping her students succeed and creates a supportive learning environment that makes a real difference.
