About Zara

Hi! I’m Zara, the founder of ZMTutoring — a friendly and focused English tutoring service based in Redbridge. I’ve recently completed my A-Levels in English Literature, which means I'm fresh out the system and understand exactly what today’s students are up against — from changing exam formats to confidence issues in reading and writing. I genuinely love what I do — I’m a bit of a literature nerd at heart and I find so much joy in helping others engage with English in a way that actually makes sense to them. Tutoring is something I plan to continue long-term, and I'm excited to grow ZMTutoring as I work towards becoming a full-time teacher in the future. I’m passionate about making English accessible and less overwhelming, especially for students who feel left behind or unsure where to start. Whether it's helping a Year 4 student master punctuation or guiding a Year 11 through essay structure for unseen poetry, I approach every lesson with patience, structure and care. My aim is always the same: to build confidence, raise grades, and make English feel less like a chore and more like a skill they can truly master.

My lessons are fully tailored to each student’s needs, whether they’re working on basic SPaG in primary school or tackling GCSE exam questions. I focus on building confidence alongside skills, breaking down tricky ideas in a calm and encouraging way. I use a mix of past papers, creative tasks, and targeted feedback/homework to help students understand why something works — not just memorise it. Every lesson is designed to be engaging, structured, and supportive, especially for students who may find English overwhelming. Lessons are typically 60 minutes, but I also offer 60 mins of total revision including breaks for younger students or those with shorter attention spans. I’ve recently completed my A-Levels in English Literature, so I understand the curriculum in detail and how to succeed in the current exam system. I’ve also supported younger students with reading, writing, and exam prep informally. I teach students from Year 1 up to Year 11, and I’m happy to support all abilities — from those who need extra help catching up, to those aiming for top grades.
