About Shamim
Personal statement
I have worked as a lecturer at De Montfort University for over 12 years. I hold a PGCE in further Education, an MA in English Language Teaching, and a BA honours in English.
I taught English for Academic Purposes at university. This enabled me to develop various teaching approaches at different levels of English usage. I taught primary school English as a second language in Portugal. I have been observed several times and demonstrated that I was outstanding. I have used various teaching aids ranging from pictures, flash cards, to a variety of IT techniques. I have also used peer interaction and assessment to develop learners.
Teaching at university enabled me to teach presentation skills. This has enabled me to do the same during training, coaching and mentoring sessions with colleagues. I have mentored a number of tutors. In my experience as a university lecturer I have used a variety of online platforms to teach students during the Covid-19 pandemic.

A typical English lesson begins with a retrieval task, followed by explicit teaching and modelling. Students analyse texts, discuss ideas, and develop reading and writing skills through guided and independent practice. Regular feedback, questioning, and assessment opportunities help students make progress and build confidence.

Shamim tutored my daughter for her Year 9 GCSE English Language mock exam. Just from 3 weeks of tutoring, my daughter received the highest mark in her class. The teacher specifically noted that she was the only pupil to use rhetorical questions as well as hyperbole. My child looked forward to the online lessons that were so engaging as well as informative. She would be given a written task at the end of the lesson, which would be marked with speed and detailed feedback! I will be continuing to use Shamim’s skills for both GCSE Language and Literature and highly recommend her to tutor you/your child. Thanks, Shamim, for boosting my child’s confidence and making such a huge difference to her grade.
I have known Shamim for over 15 years and I have spoken to many of her students while we had the pleasure to work together.
Her students were always very enthusiastic about her teaching style and dedication to her job . I could recommend her to teach my child or me anytime !I highly recommend Shamim as an English tutor. She is not only very knowledgeable but also patient, supportive, and professional in her approach. Her lessons are always well prepared and tailored to the needs of each student, ensuring clear progress and confidence in learning.
Shamim creates a positive and encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable to ask questions and develop their skills at their own pace. She is reliable, dedicated, and genuinely committed to helping her students achieve their goals.
Anyone looking for an excellent English tutor will find in Shamim a true professional who combines expertise with care.View more recommendations
