Riya

Qualified History Teacher | PGCE in History Education

I help students in Qatar make sense of historical events by showing them how the past shapes our present. Whether we're unpacking the causes of World War I or analysing Cold War diplomacy, I focus on helping students develop strong argumentation, source evaluation, and essay-writing skills. My approach combines historical depth with clarity, ensuring students not only remember the facts but truly understand them. From crafting high-level IB HL essays to preparing Cambridge-style source responses, I aim to bring out each student’s confidence and critical thinking.

Vetted Tutor

Personally Interviewed

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge. They have extensive tutoring experience with a track record of success, helping students achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Experience

My classroom experience spans international schools in Doha and the UK, where I’ve worked with students from diverse backgrounds and learning needs. What makes my tutoring unique is the focus on skill-building rather than cramming. In one-on-one sessions, I guide students through source analysis, structured essay planning, and historical interpretation with a strategic lens—always with the syllabus and mark scheme in mind. I also run IA feedback workshops and revision intensives around exam season. Many of my students have seen improvements of 2–3 grade levels after a term of consistent, targeted support.
