Hello, I'm Ibrahim

I Help Students Understand Maths, Not Just Get Through It

I'm a maths tutor with a degree in Space Sciences, specialising in astronomy and astrophysics. Since 2018 I've taught maths online to more than 100 students, from Year 4 right through to Year 13. For over seven years I've been teaching students across the UK.

Today I teach one-to-one only, because that's where I see students make the most progress. Every student gets a personal plan, calm and patient lessons, and a tutor who explains things in more than one way until they click.

My Journey

My Story in Four Chapters

How a student who loved maths became a tutor who plans every lesson around the child in front of him.

Chapter 1 · College

It Started With Helping My Friends

At college, I was the friend who loved maths. Lots of my friends found it hard, so I started helping them: before tests, after lessons, whenever they were stuck on a question like this one.

Seeing that "ohh, so that's how it works!" moment on a friend's face is what first made me want to teach.

Chapter 2 · Local Students

Then Local Students Started Asking

Word spread, and soon students in my area were asking for help too. I began teaching them one-to-one at home, around the family table, with parents close by.

That's where I learnt how much difference patient, personal teaching makes, and that every student needs things explained in their own way.

Chapter 3 · Online Homeschool

Teaching Online at Al-Fajr Homeschool

Next, I joined Al-Fajr Homeschool, an online home-education school. I taught maths to groups, and one-to-one for students who needed more personal support. I also:

  • Designed full course plans and lesson plans
  • Set homework and wrote quizzes
  • Prepared final exams
Chapter 4 · Today

One-to-One Online, From Year 4 to Year 13

Since 2023 I've taught students across the UK, from KS3 and GCSE to A Level and Further Maths, as well as university students, on every major exam board. In total, I've now taught more than 100 students.

Today I teach one-to-one only, with a written plan for every student. And the best part of my job hasn't changed: a parent telling me their child is improving, and has actually started to like maths.

Education

A Degree Built on Maths

Bachelor of Science · Completed 2022

BS in Space Sciences

Specialising in Astronomy and Astrophysics

Studying how stars, planets and galaxies behave is mostly maths. My degree was full of it, and it's the same maths your child meets at GCSE, A Level and university, taken much further.

  • Calculus
  • Differential Equations
  • Linear Algebra
  • Mechanics
  • Statistics & Data
  • Mathematical Physics

Course Design

I've Been Writing Courses for Years

At Al-Fajr Homeschool, I didn't just teach lessons. I planned whole courses: the order of topics, each lesson plan, the homework, the quizzes and the final exams.

That experience is behind the personal plan every student gets from me today: every topic mapped out week by week, with checkpoint tests, key dates and a written progress update for parents every six weeks.

How I Teach

Four Things I Never Compromise On

1

More Than One Way

If an explanation doesn't land, I try another: a diagram, a real-life example, a different method. There's always a way in.

2

Mistakes Are Welcome

Wrong answers show us what to fix. Students feel safe to try, so they stop being afraid of maths.

3

Never Rushed

Students get time to think a problem through. Real understanding beats racing through a worksheet.

4

Parents in the Loop

A written plan, an update every six weeks, and you can message me any time.

Unlike her mainstream school where the tutor would only give one way of explaining how to reach the correct answer, Ibrahim uses many varied ways of explaining how to get to that conclusion.

Even if her answer is incorrect he's never said 'No, that's wrong!' He's a fine example of how any teacher should be.

Ibrahim values his students as individuals taking the time to understand their strengths and identity their weaknesses… his communication with parents is also excellent!

Still Looking Up at the Stars

Astronomy is still my favourite way to switch off. On a clear night I'll be stargazing, and I'm always happy to chat about black holes if a student asks.

I simply love thinking about maths and physics, and that's what I want to pass on: not just how to answer the question, but why the maths works.
