Deb and Arunima are the founders of A-Star Tuitions and passionate STEM educators. Their journey began not as tutors, but as parents. When their son started secondary school, they quickly realised how little clarity existed around GCSE expectations. Like many parents, they worried whether their child was truly on track. Unable to find the guidance they needed, they began teaching their son themselves and discovered a crucial gap in how students were being prepared for STEM exams. It wasn’t intelligence or effort that was missing — students simply weren’t being taught how to link topics to exam questions or how marks are earned. Word spread quickly. Within months they were teaching multiple students, and the results were remarkable. Today, more than 400 students have learned through A-Star Tuitions, building confidence, mastering STEM subjects, and progressing to top universities around the world.
