Meet the people behind every Ustaad article
Every study guide is written by a real person, a named group of teachers or a practising examiner, and checked by a qualified reviewer before it goes live. Here is who writes, who checks, and how we keep the advice honest for UAE families.
How an article reaches you
Four clear steps. Every writer is named, or their board and role are shown when a name is withheld.
Write
A named writer or verified examiner drafts the guide from real UAE classroom and parent patterns.
Contribute
Subject specialists add worked examples, board notes, and fact checks where needed.
Review
Nida checks accuracy, clarity, and fit for UAE exam boards before anything goes live.
Publish
The byline stays honest. You always know who wrote it and who approved it.
When you search for a tutor in Dubai or Abu Dhabi, you see a lot of noise: long tutor lists, anonymous blogs, and advice that could be from any country. This page exists so you always know who wrote what you are reading.
Who is behind our articles
A practising Cambridge examiner who marks IGCSE and A-Level papers and tutors 1-to-1 with Ustaad. Exam boards restrict examiners from publicising their role, so we share the board and level instead of a name. Every article they write is checked by our editorial team before it goes live.
Practising Maths, Science and English teachers who add worked examples, exam tips and fact checks. Many teach in UAE schools and prefer privacy, so we share subjects and experience instead of names. Nida reviews everything they send in.
Nimra Shahzada
Content Writer
Nimra writes about the study problems UAE parents see at home: hours of revision that still lose marks, unfinished homework, and exam stress before mocks. Her guides turn those worries into simple steps families can follow.
Nida Iqbal
Editorial Reviewer
Nida holds an MPhil in Education Leadership and Management. She checks every article before it is published so the advice stays correct, clear, and matched to how UAE schools teach and test.
