About Harish
I am currently teaching and offering private tuition which gives me first-hand knowledge of the required skills needed for top marks. I currently tutor both privately as well as in schools as an external educational consultant to either raise standards or to accelerate groups of students in English. I teach in a private tuition centre where I am Years 7 - 13 coordinator, meaning I have the most up-to-date knowledge on the secondary curriculum. I am also a senior examiner, marking for the country's leading examination board, where my marking has been rated as "Excellent" in all areas, every year.

By being a senior examiner, it means that I have access to the latest resources, approaches and changes that have occurred in education. I have worked with curriculum lead teachers, head teachers and education directors, giving me an insight into the best approaches to tackling examinations and coursework. My students do well - in fact - it is not uncommon for many to score 100% in each paper. Once your child understands what the examiner is looking for and how to write an exam answer, they are on the road to success. By being relatively young, parents often comment on how well I get on with their child. To me, rapport is the absolute foundational building block of successful tuition. With a proven track record with my students doing very well at both GCSE and A Level, it is clear my methods are effective. By achieving 14 GCSEs myself, completing some in just 1 year, this gives me a broad knowledge of the syllabus. In addition, my A levels have reinforced this knowledge and given me a breadth of wisdom into the insight of perfecting examination techniques which I can, and have, passed to a plethora of my students. I understand what it takes to attain the highest marks possible; during university, my marks were ranked as some of the highest not only in my year but also in the university's history, with many of my papers being published. The key to examination success is seldom simply learning what is in the textbook; indeed, more often than not, the opposite is true. It is about understanding what the examiner wants! Contrary to popular belief, examiners are not mean or cruel - they actually want to award the highest possible marks; students just have to learn how to structure, approach and write in a way to allow them to do so. My main approach to tutoring is understanding my student, meticulous planning and engagement. I tend to use a mix of resources in my lessons. For example, I may use my whiteboard, exam questions, model answers, or anything creative to keep my students engaged. I also like to set questions for homework and intertwine past exam questions with my teaching, and often set mock examinations. To me teaching is a passion. I absolutely love teaching and tutoring. Instead of being a tutor as a last resort, teaching is my absolute first choice. The fact that I am so passionate about teaching, enjoying every lesson I plan and teach, really transpires to my students where they gain a similar positive energy, helping them for their future studies.

Harish has been an outstanding and trustworthy tutor, guiding me through crucial stages of my academic journey. His expert teaching helped me pass the 11+ exams and secure a place at St Albans School. Later, his meticulous preparation enabled me to succeed in the first round of Eton College exams and interviews, where I later earned a scholarship.
Beyond these achievements, Harish laid a solid foundation for my approach to exams, from end-of-term tests to GCSEs and A-levels. His teaching style has equipped me with the skills and confidence to excel academically.
Harish is beyond a tutor, he is a mentor who has had a lasting impact on my academic journey. Therefore I wholeheartedly recommend Harish as tutor who goes beyond the expectations of a trustworthy tutor.Harish is a very friendly and kind teacher. He is meticulous and excellent at what he does.
He Helped my son to get into the top secondary school in UK with his exceptional teaching skills.
He also continued to help my daughter in his teaching skills it’s a privilege to have him as a tutor.
Harish is an excellent tutor. He takes into account the individual child's personality as well as teaching them the essentials and more.
He pushes where necessary without upsetting the students. He is very thorough and when he can't make it- due to emergency weather conditions etc- he does skype consultations.A calm, experienced, and confident navigator through the alien world of 11+ grammar school exams. Targetted practice and analysis on areas of weakness, and lots of useful tips and information.
Harish has a gentle manner and is tutoring a gifted child in our school. He has always been punctual and prepared for lessons and you can see the progress in the child in his past few months with us.
I would recommend him as he is clearly dedicated to his tuition and has a good rapport with children which is evident. We chose him because of his expertise in 11+ tutoring. A child in our school being tutored this way is extremely unusual in our deprived area urban school and with his help, this student a real chance of getting into the local grammar school despite starting the process very late in Feb 17 for exams in July and Sept 17.We decided to hire Harish because we were called up by Henrietta Barnett school and were told that there was one opening available for a late entry into Year 8. My daughter Amy; whom currently attends St Pauls school wanted to join her sister who was already enrolled at Henrietta Barnett as it was closer to our home in Hamstead.
So i was given Harish's details by a close friend of mine who is actually an Ofsted inspector... so i knew my daughter would be in good hands with Harish!
As we did not have much time, Harish came to my home everyday and prepared my daughter for her exams for around 2 weeks. It was surprising to see how much knowledge he had! He really knew everything there was to know about the admissions. He even gave me call to let me know when Amy's test date would be, which i thought was really good of him.
With Harish's help, my daughters confidence really grew. She was starting to do her school homework because she wanted to do it...rather than because she had to do it. I think its because Harish gave her that confidence she needed to strive. Even though Harish is really busy as he is high in demand he always ensured that my daughter had her lessons (apart from one of the days as it was his brothers wedding...but we forgave him for that!).
Overall, Harish is fantastic. My daughter always says that his lessons are engaging and creative.He really has given my daughter a push that she has long needed!I have been asked to write a review for Harish in sight of my sons success in his 11+ entrance exams. Harish has tutored my youngest son last year and my eldest son the year before. Harish always had a very positive energy towards both my sons lessons which was really important as my sons were losing faith in themselves as they had poor concentration in school. If you are thinking of having Harish help your children for their 11+ exams you have really found the right person. He really understands the requirements of the entrance exams and he always took out the time to have a thorough chat with me after each lesson to discuss my children's progress, which i thought was really important. The fact that he would set plenty of homework each week and always provide fantastic feedback helped my children see how they were doing. He was really genuine and If he saw that my son was slacking or that his homework was not good enough, Harish would be the first to tell my son to re-do it! He really did push my children to their full potential but that is what they needed; especially as the exams are just so incredibly competitive.
Harish helped both of my sons in English. They were really struggling to understand they key aspects of the books they were reading in school.
With Harish's help they really got to grips with the books, and perfected exam technique.Both me and my Husband were really impressed by Harish's approach to my daughters studies. With Harish's help my daughter went from being in the bottom ability group and striving to the top ability group.
I thoroughly recommend him.We found that Harish was an exceptional tutor. He went above and beyond to ensure that my son fully understood everything. And it worked! Harry really improved my sons confidence and his teachers were so impressed.
