Mirza Science Tutoring
Science and maths tuition, taught the way a good experiment is run.
One-to-one tutoring for KS3, GCSE and A-Level students, led by a qualified science teacher with QTS. Clear method, honest feedback, and a focus on the marks students are actually losing.

I'm a qualified science teacher based in Halifax. Before training to teach, I worked as a science technician, setting up practicals, handling required apparatus and chemicals safely, and supporting students through the exact experiments they're later examined on at GCSE. That time in the prep room shaped how I teach now: I know where students lose marks in required practicals, because I used to help run them.
I trained through a PGCE in Science with a Chemistry specialism, teaching KS3 and KS4 science across two schools, where I built a habit of adapting lessons for different learners — including students with SEND and EAL needs — rather than teaching one lesson to the whole room.
My own background is in biomedical science, so alongside teaching I bring real lab and research experience: cell culture, microscopy, data analysis, and the kind of practical rigour that makes a chemistry or biology explanation actually stick.
Subjects, laid out like the table you'd expect from a chemist.
Every tile is a subject I tutor in person around Halifax. Tap into any of them for one-to-one sessions built around your child's actual exam board and current level.
One-to-one, or small group.
Both formats follow the same method. The difference is the room they happen in.
Fully personalised sessions
Every minute is spent on your child's specific gaps, at their pace, with a plan built around their exam board and target grade.
Small enough to still get noticed
What makes my group tuition different is the cap: a maximum of six students per class. Small enough that your child still gets real time and attention, not lost in a crowd, while learning alongside peers at a similar level.
Three steps, every time.
Find out where marks are actually being lost
We start with past papers and current classwork to see exactly which topics or question types are costing marks, not a generic "weak at chemistry" guess.
Teach the concept, then drill the technique
Each session rebuilds the underlying idea properly, then practises the specific exam technique and command words that mark schemes reward.
Test it under exam conditions
Regular timed questions and required-practical style tasks confirm the topic has actually stuck, with a plan for what's next.
