About Me

Hi, I'm Alima, the founder of Bright Minds Club. I am a qualified and experienced former prep school teacher of over 10 years. I have taught in state and preparatory schools in London. With an academic background in psychology, being Head of PSHE in a prep school for several years, as well as being a qualified mindfulness teacher, my mission is to make learning as fun as possible whilst promoting positive mental health & well-being for young impressionable minds. As a former class teacher, I know how difficult and frustrating it can be for some children to "get" everything in a fast-past classroom environment, especially when there is so much in the curriculum to cover, so I decided to set up the Bright Minds Club - a safe and mindful place where children can learn confidently and reach their academic goals.

Parent Feedback

“I'm really pleased we found Alima (which, surprisingly I did via instagram). Her lessons and courses are well planned and communicated, which gave me confidence in advance of her teaching and the learning outcomes. Alima builds a lovely rapport with her students, and has helped build my daughter's confidence in contributing answers and too disucssion. My daughter first tried the free vocabulary builder sessions, which were valuable in both learning new words, and getting a sense of where to focus. She then did the 6 week English course, which has helped develop and strengthen my daughter's English skills. I would gladly recommend Alima. I find her warm and approachable, creating a positive learning environment, combined with well planned lessons to build and strengthen English skills.”

“Alima is a first class teacher and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She connected with my daughter immediately and made the lessons both fun and impactful with her intuitive teaching style and creative materials and activities. She also provided structured and clear feedback on progress and areas of focus which was really helpful. My daughter absolutely loves her and looked forward to every lesson which I think really says it all. Thank you so much.”
