Hello! I am Hezekiah Omao, a dedicated Science Educator based in Dubai and immediately available for part-time, online, or in-person tutoring.
With over 5 years of combined teaching experience at secondary level, I specialize in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics. I taught Mathematics and Chemistry for 3 years (2019–2022) at St. Stevens High School, Nairobi, and earlier taught all three subjects at Nyamakorobo Friends Secondary School (2014–2017). I also hold training in Special Needs Education with a focus on Emotional and Behavioural Disorders (EBD).
My Tutoring Approach
I believe every student can succeed with the right guidance. My approach is student-centred, encouraging, and results-driven. I create a supportive and positive learning environment where students feel confident to ask questions, make mistakes, and grow. I combine strong subject knowledge with patience and motivation techniques — especially useful for students who struggle with focus, confidence, or behaviour challenges.
How I Plan My Lessons
Every lesson is carefully planned based on the student’s current level, goals, and curriculum (IGCSE, CBSE, British, American, or Kenyan system). I start by assessing strengths and weaknesses, then create personalised lesson plans that include:
Clear learning objectives
Real-life examples and visual explanations
Progressive difficulty to build mastery
Regular review of previous topics
Exam-style questions and time management strategies
I adapt plans weekly according to the student’s progress and feedback.
My Tutoring Techniques
Interactive & Engaging: Use of diagrams, videos, simulations, and problem-solving activities to make abstract concepts concrete.
Differentiated Instruction: Adjust pace and methods for different learning styles (visual, auditory, kinesthetic).
Active Recall & Practice: Frequent questioning, quizzes, and homework with detailed feedback.
Behaviour & Motivation Support: Positive reinforcement, goal-setting, and strategies for students with emotional or behavioural difficulties.
Technology Integration: Smooth online sessions via Zoom or Google Meet with screen sharing, digital whiteboards, and shared notes.
Exam Preparation Focus: Targeted revision, past paper practice, and weak-area strengthening.
