About Shams
I believe math becomes so much easier once you understand the ideas behind the formulas, not just memorize them. I break challenging topics into clear, manageable steps, helping students build practical problem-solving skills, real confidence, and a genuine understanding of mathematics itself.

I teach mathematics for Cambridge Lower Secondary, IB MYP, IGCSE, GCSE, AS/A Level, and IB DP. I like keeping things simple. I explain concepts clearly, share strategies that actually work, and help students feel confident and prepared, whether they're in class or getting ready for exams

I have been lucky enough to have been taught by Ms. Shams during my high school years on Algebra, Pre-Calculus (SAT math); and Calculus I (AP Calc AB).
She is a very calm and approachable tutor that will 100% help you finally get math. I got into my desired university: #1 ranked CS faculty in my country (ADA university) with an SAT score of 1420 because of her lessons.
After taking her lessons I felt that I learned HOW to solve technical and mathematical problems rather than just memorizing formulas or learning short methods as I had before.
Every lesson was taught from first principles yet it was still concise, simple, and unbelievably structured. While in a lesson with Ms. Shams you will never feel like the lesson is dragging on: each lesson is challenging enough that you will progress quickly, yet well paced enough that you will never feel overwhelmed.
Her assignments and homework's perfectly complement the lessons and build true understanding. I fondly remember learning trigonometry from first principles in the span of basically a week; from memorizing sin(90)=1 to being able to derive it on the unit circle within a few days.
I can confidently say that Ms. Shams was the most influential teacher I've ever had. I wholeheartedly recommend her to any student wishing to get a deeper understanding of mathematics. 10/10.Hi, my name is David. I studied at ADA School for 2 years, and both years I had Mrs. Shams as my math teacher. Honestly, I always had problems with math until 11th grade because I never dedicated myself to this subject, but after meeting Mrs. Shams and actually understanding her explanations, I fell in love with math to the point that now I am studying engineering in Germany :)
I always loved her approach to the lessons and how she always began every topic with a proof of the topic to give us a real understanding of math. I quit my private tutor because I honestly found Mrs. Shams’ explanations so good and detailed, so I was preparing for the DIM exam (one of the main and most important exams for 11 graders in Azerbaijan) myself with the materials she always uploaded online on our Blackboard. (I reached 91 points out of 100 thanks to her)
I am really thankful that I met her during my school years because she gave me real support and put me on an absolutely new path that led me to engineering. Now I am in love with math and very happy to remember those school math lessons with Mrs. Shams.I’ve been taking Precalculus lessons with Ms.Shams for about a year. For me it was a very positive experience. I really liked the structure of the lessons, the way Ms.Shams made the topics more memorable and fun. What I liked the most was her approach to the questions, making it easier to understand. Grateful to have such a teacher
Shams was my mathematics instructor during my final year of school. Her teaching reinforces time-tested methods, which she applies with great efficiency. She maintains an ideal balance in the classroom, by treating students as responsible, independent learners without compromising on high academic pace and rigor. Furthermore, she effectively manages both the in-class environment and online learning platforms to support her students' overall academic experience.
Ms. Shams has the best explanations ever! Her way of teaching makes it really easy and memorable to learn new lessons. Also the materials Ms. Shams shares with us are relevant and understandable.
I had the opportunity to be Shams’s student at ADA School for three years, and I can confidently say that she is an amazing mathematics instructor. I also took extra lessons with her, and she was always very patient, friendly, and clear when explaining difficult topics. When I struggled with calculus at university, I went back to the notes I had taken in her classes, and they helped me understand the material and eventually pass my university course with an A-. What makes Shams special is that she is not only a great teacher but also makes her students feel like they are learning with a friend. I would definitely recommend her to other Superprof students—you honestly won’t find a better and more supportive math instructor.
Ms. Shams was my math instructor in high school and accommodated amazing conditions for all students in the class, making sure everyone was doing their best to catch up with the course's pace. I would point out her patience, ability to translate difficult concepts into easier language, and her way of coming up with interactive ways to assess students and identify their weaker domains.
Shams is very friendly and patient. She explains math in a way that makes the most difficult question easy.
