Hareem Sheikh
My name is Hareem Sheikh, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting and Finance along with an MBA in Finance. In addition to my academic background, I bring valuable corporate experience from the banking and financial sector, allowing me to connect classroom concepts with real-world business practices and decision-making processes.
As a student-focused educator, I am passionate about helping learners develop the conceptual understanding, analytical thinking, and examination techniques required to excel in Cambridge O Level Business Studies. My teaching approach combines theory with practical applications, enabling students to understand how businesses operate beyond what is written in textbooks.
Every lesson is designed around real-world examples, case study analysis, past paper practice, and examination preparation. My goal is to equip students with the confidence, knowledge, and skills needed to achieve excellent results in CAIE examinations and develop a lasting understanding of business principles.
