What our alumni say
From students who joined at age 11 to professionals who trained with us as established educators — here is what our alumni community has to say about their journey with Academica Mentoring.

★★★★★
AM broke that barrier and allowed me to learn the core subjects I needed as a young individual. I am glad to say that I walked out with As and Bs in English, Maths and Science. AM taught me life skills, how to become a better person and made me more knowledgeable about Islam and the world. I currently run a successful property management business.

More than an educator, mentor and teacher — he is a second father figure to me. I left AM in 2011 however I am still in continuous contact and I know a lifetime mentor. The friends I made from AM are still in contact with each other and we plan regular outings together.

★★★★★
With the help of AM I have been able to not only improve my grades but learn many life-long lessons. Being part of AM for over 7 years enabled me to develop my grades, confidence and application knowledge. I would not be half the person I am today.

S. Desai
Property Business Owner
★★★★★
"I have studied with AM for over ten years in subjects relating to Islamic studies and GCSE Maths, English and Science. I struggled academically to understand the subjects as the school I was attending was unstable and was being taught by NQTs who had just come into the job. AM broke that barrier and allowed me to learn the core subjects I needed as a young individual. I am glad to say that I walked out with As and Bs in English, Maths and Science. As well as the academic tuition I received, Islamic studies were taught perfectly to understand the religion to a more advanced level. AM taught me life skills, how to become a better person and made me become more knowledgeable in terms of Islam and the world around me. The support I received as a child has been phenomenal and has made me the person I am today. I currently run a successful property management business and have been fortunate enough to have had a good stable education life. I would personally recommend AM to all."

AM Alumni — Class of 2011
★★★★★
"I have been with AM for 6 years and throughout that time not only did he teach me and others Islamic principles and academic education — he taught us quintessential life lessons. In retrospect those life lessons have been a gentle hand through life. Many times I have come across scenarios where he has advised us. More than an educator, mentor and teacher he is a second father figure to me. A few of my fondest memories were the social congregations organised where all the students got together and participated in team-building activities. I left AM in 2011 however I am still in contact with him continuously and I know a lifetime contact and mentor. The friends that I made from AM — we are still in contact with each other and plan regular outings together. Our teacher always approached us in such a way as if we were friends and this made communication a lot easier."

Advanced Practitioner and Senior Leadership Team Member
★★★★★
"I started as an unqualified transition teacher. This is when Mohamed joined and encouraged me to join as a member of the Senior Leadership Team. Mohamed understood and saw my passion, potential and skills and gave me a chance to utilise and improve them. Under his mentorship I further pursued my career and became a lead teacher and member of the Senior Leadership Team. I would not be where I am today without the guidance, support and belief of Mohamed Sidat."
