About Zak
A Global Finance Leader & Working Parent I am a highly qualified and globally experienced finance professional, holding both FCCA and CPA-Canada designations. My mission is to bring high-level commercial insight and empathetic strategy to your ACCA SBL preparation. Legitimacy & Global Expertise FCCA & CPA-Canada: My dual professional qualification provides a deep, rigorous foundation in global finance and accounting principles—essential for mastering Strategic Business Leader. Global Finance Lead: I currently serve as a Finance Lead at a multinational organisation, managing teams across the USA, Canada, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australasia. This role demands the precise strategic leadership, governance, and commercial acumen that SBL tests. 12 Years of Corporate Insight: Having spent 3.5 successful years in New Zealand before returning to Canada, I transition my practical experience from the boardroom directly into your lessons, helping you apply models correctly and think like a senior manager. Proven Track Record: My early career included successfully tutoring numerous ACCA students, all of whom passed with flying colours. After 12 years of corporate work, I am driven to give back that crucial, real-world knowledge. Empathy & Efficiency: Why I Understand Your Struggle You are not just a student; you are a working professional, potentially juggling a toddler, family, and a demanding job. I am in the exact same boat. I know how hard it is to balance life's priorities with passing ACCA exams. I am a very busy person—a working parent juggling the hard turns of life, family, and a senior role. Zero Explanations Needed: When you come to me with your study problems, you won't need to explain your exhaustion or time constraints a second time. I just know. Spot-On & Time-Respecting: My teaching is designed to be spot-on and ruthlessly efficient. I respect your limited time by cutting straight to the most impactful exam techniques, ensuring you get the maximum value from every single session. My tutoring is built around the reality of your working life—making your path to passing SBL as efficient and easy as possible.

My lessons are designed to turn your fear of SBL into a confident pass. As an FCCA with 12 years of senior industry experience, I focus on the application that ACCA examiners demand, not just memorisation. What You Will Master: Question Demystification: We start by breaking down complex SBL requirements into small, manageable chunks. You will learn to recognise what the examiner truly wants. The Marking Scheme Code: Learn the specific keywords and techniques that maximise your marks, especially the crucial 20 Professional Skills marks that determine a pass or fail. Quick Wins Strategy: We focus immediately on the areas that guarantee you the quick marks needed to secure a passing grade, then tackle the tougher topics to push you well beyond the pass line. My Guarantee: Industry-Driven Insight My 12 years of experience—wearing hats from Auditor to Senior Finance Manager and leading multinational teams in Canada and New Zealand—is the core of my teaching. I give you the commercial perspective needed to excel in SBL. My Philosophy: "There are no bad students—only bad techniques." I welcome every single question with NO judgement. I specialise in breaking down the most complex business topics into simple, layman's terms. Session Flexibility (Online Only) I offer flexible online sessions via Zoom/Teams: Session Duration 3 Hours (Recommended) Full practice paper walkthrough & deep strategy session. 1 or 2 Hours Focused review of specific weakness areas (e.g., Risk or Governance) or a rapid mock exam debrief.
