Rishi B - Tutors - Keystone Tutors

My journey as a tutor began in 2010 during my iGCSE years when I first began helping my peers overcome academic challenges. This early experience sparked my passion for teaching, which has grown into a fulfilling career over the past 9+ years. Throughout this time, I have accumulated over 15,000 hours of teaching experience across various subjects and educational contexts, including supporting students with Special Educational Needs (SEN), preparing for entrance exams, navigating gap years, and assisting students with homeschooling.

Expertise & Specialisation

I specialise in A-Level Economics, Business Studies, Mathematics, Computer Science, and I also offer support in all three sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Biology), ensuring a well-rounded academic foundation. Additionally, I provide extensive assistance with entrance exams GCSEs, A-levels, and the IB curriculum. My expertise extends to EPQ (Extended Project Qualification) support, where I mentor students through research, helping them refine their ideas, structure their arguments, and deliver high-quality projects.

I have worked with students across multiple exam boards including Edexcel, OCR, AQA, WJEC, and IB, tailoring my approach to suit the individual needs of each student and guiding them to achieve top grades. I focus on building critical thinking, mastery of subject content, and exam strategies to ensure students perform to the best of their abilities.

These experiences have allowed me to refine my teaching strategies, foster academic excellence, and work with diverse student groups. I utilise innovative digital tools to create engaging and interactive sessions for students.

Entrance Exam & Interview Preparation

My experience in preparing students for competitive entrance exams and interviews at top independent schools is extensive. I have successfully supported students applying to St. Paul’s, Westminster, Eton, Harrow, Godolphin and Latymer, Wycombe Abbey, and other top schools. I focus on developing critical thinking, mastering subject content, and instilling confidence for both written assessments and interviews, ensuring students excel in all aspects of the entrance process.

Homeschooling & Adult Learning

I also have extensive experience supporting homeschooling students by creating tailored curricula that foster steady academic progress across multiple subjects. Additionally, I provide tutoring for adult learners in subjects such as coding, data analysis, and financial literacy, helping them gain foundational and advanced skills.

Undergraduate Support & UCAS Admissions

My expertise extends to undergraduate-level support, where I guide students in Computer Science, Mathematics, Economics, Business Management, and Finance through complex coursework, research projects, and exams. I also provide support for students with UCAS admissions, helping them craft compelling personal statements, prepare for interviews, and secure places at top universities.

Holistic Approach

Throughout my career, I have adhered to a philosophy of holistic education, where the goal is not only academic success but also fostering critical thinking, confidence, and a lifelong passion for learning. Whether I am preparing students for top schools, supporting them through their UCAS applications, or guiding them toward university success, I am dedicated to helping each student reach their full potential.

I was born and raised in London, where my passion for education and teaching first developed. My interest in Maths, Economics, and Computer Science grew during school, particularly through hands-on, experimental learning. This led me to run fun online and face-to-face science experiments during COVID, engaging students in interactive ways to make complex concepts come alive.

This approach to learning laid the foundation for my YouTube channel, ‘Learn with Rishi’, where I teach subjects like Computer Science, Mathematics, English, UKMT, and more. Through my channel, I create engaging lessons and problem-solving strategies that help students build a deep understanding of their subjects and approach learning with enthusiasm.

In addition to my academic background, I served as a member of the Youth Parliament, where I developed a strong foundation in Economics and Politics, shaping how I teach these subjects with real-world context and critical thinking. I also pursued a degree in Mathematics and Computer Science, where I was President of the Tech Society and led AI-focused projects, winning Top Innovator for my work in AI for healthcare and education.

With over 9 years of tutoring experience, I specialise in A-Level Economics, Business Studies, Mathematics, Computer Science, and entrance exam preparation (7+, 8+, 10+, 11+), GCSEs, A-levels, and the IB curriculum. I focus on simplifying complex concepts, making learning enjoyable, and inspiring my students to think critically, work independently, and develop a lifelong love of learning.

As a dedicated tutor, I believe my role extends far beyond teaching academic content; it’s about mentoring students to become well-rounded, analytical, and future-ready individuals. My approach is rooted in developing a mindset that empowers students to navigate challenges with confidence, embrace curiosity, and excel in all areas of life.

I prioritise building a strong foundation in essential skills—critical thinking, problem-solving, and organisation—while fostering values such as discipline, resilience, and a lifelong love for learning. By instilling these qualities, I prepare students not only to achieve academic success but also to thrive in their future pursuits, whether in education or beyond.

Each session is tailored to the unique strengths, weaknesses, and aspirations of the student, with a focus on holistic growth. I help students become more analytical in their approach to problems, more skillful in managing their time and tasks, and more attuned to the value of education in shaping their future. My teaching philosophy ensures that every lesson leaves a lasting impact, equipping students with tools and strategies that extend far beyond the classroom.

Ultimately, my goal is to nurture confident, independent learners who value education as a key to unlocking their potential and making meaningful contributions to the world.

In addition to my work as a Software Engineer and Solutions Consultant, I am deeply passionate about the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially its transformative applications in education and healthcare. I advise clients on selecting and implementing the best software solutions to optimize their operations, bridging the gap between advanced technology and real-world impact.

Outside of my professional life, I’m an avid gym enthusiast who loves staying active and pushing myself through new fitness challenges. I also have a unique blend of creativity and discipline—playing the Indian drum (Dhol) at events worldwide, where I bring energy and rhythm to weddings, corporate events, and celebrations.

Another major passion of mine is running a full-time YouTube channel, Learn with Rishi, where I create engaging educational content on Computer Science, Mathematics, and other subjects. Through my channel, I strive to make learning interactive and enjoyable, helping students master complex topics and approach their studies with enthusiasm.

Additionally, I am proud to be involved and help run Army Days at Sandhurst, guiding potential recruits and providing them with insight into military life. This helps me to support in the AOSB (Army Officer Selection Board).

This combination of technical expertise, creative expression, and commitment to education defines my professional journey and personal passions.
