Oxbridge Application Tutors : 1-1 Oxbridge Application Preparation

My name is Abena and I’m a 5th year medical student at the University of Oxford. As well as spending a large amount of time on my academic career, I have also dedicated myself to my tutoring ability with over 6 years of tutoring experience. Through my years of experience I have been able to improve my teaching skills and encounter a number of ways to assist a student in the their chosen subject allowing me to tailor sessions for the student in front of me. Furthermore, I’m a friendly, enthusiastic tutor, who enjoys helping students achieve their academic goals with discipline and consistency. Education has always been a huge priority in my life and I’ve had teachers whom have helped me immensley with my motivation and performance, something I hope to pass on to my future students.

Apart from tutoring, I enjoy cheerleading for my university, I’m also president of two societies Oxford Black Medics Society and learn Spanish in my free time.

Fun fact: My name means I was born on a Tuesday.

Hi there! My name is Grace. In 2023, I finished a French Literature MSt at Keble College, Oxford, for which I received a Distinction. I also completed a History and French BA for my undergraduate at Somerville College, Oxford and got a First Class. I’ve been tutoring for seven years now so I have lots of experience, and I really enjoy being able to help students wherever I can. Throughout my time in education, I always put my academic studies first, and I know how important it is to do your best in exams; I find it extremely rewarding when I can help students to achieve this. Having got all A*s in GCSE and A-Level, and successfully passed through Oxford’s rigorous admissions process, I know first-hand what is required to do well at all of these stages. I also really enjoy teaching students and hope that my enthusiasm will make their sessions enjoyable!

My name is Emily and I am currently studying towards an MEng in Materials Science at The Queen’s College, Oxford. Prior to University, I attended a state grammar school where I was the sole student to get into Oxford. I have got lots of experience in mentoring students for Oxbridge interviews, and have helped many with proof reading and tailoring their personal statements, too, as this can be the outstanding factor when universities choose who to offer a place to! I am highly charismatic and enthusiastic about my studies, and hope this is reflected both in my teaching and also in the results I can obtain in my students, as I have found many times students struggle to understand concepts as they either lack motivation or it hasn’t been taught to them in such a way that they can easily grasp and understand. I firmly believe everyone learn even the most challenging of topics, it just needs to be viewed from a different perspective, as everyone thinks differently!

I’m a second year engineering student at the University of Cambridge. A few of my hobbies are cricket and gym and i love to watch f1. I love the sciences and maths and enjoy teaching it and help people understand and enjoy it as much as I do. Everyone learns in different ways so in my opinion it’s important to understand how you learn and I will try and pick up on how you learn to help you understand as well as possible. There’s no such thing as a silly question so don’t ever be scared to ask and it’s good to vocalise your doubts so when you need help you can get it.It’s completely decided up to you what you want to focus on if you have a plan of what you want to do it is even better because it will help drive the lesson and help boost your learning the most as that what we both want to achieve.

Hello! My name is Eva and I am a Law graduate from the University of Cambridge. I have been tutoring for over 4 years and have helped many students get the grades that they want through personalised feedback and personal support. My students have ranged from primary school students to sixth-formers about to sit their A-Levels. I got 8 A*s and 2 As for GCSEs, 3 A*s for A-Levels (and A* in EPQ) and got full marks in my interview at Cambridge. I also got a score of 30 for my LNAT. I use my knowledge to push my students to achieve their best and I am passionate about getting you to where you want to be. I have helped over 15 students get into Oxbridge since I have been tutoring and all of them have benefited from my personal statement support as well as my mock interviews. Having completed 3 years of Law, I have an excellent eye for detail and a lot of skills that you as my student can take advantage of. As a tutor, I am an open book and always here to help and answer your questions!

Hi! I’m Archie, and I’m a second-year student reading History at Wadham College, University of Oxford. My university experience has been everything I could have hoped for and more, and I want to help other people live up to their potential in the way I was able to.

I actually got into Oxford on my second attempt, having received three A*s at A-level. Doing the application a second time meant taking a critical look at my Personal Statement, History Aptitude Test, and interview technique, analysing where I had fallen short, and how I could improve for next time. This was an enormously valuable experience, and in hindsight I would have loved to have had a similarly experienced person helping me out the first time around. I hope that this is what I can provide. The progress I made with myself from that rocky beginning resulted in a Distinction in my Preliminary exams at the end of first year and my receipt of several College awards and scholarships.

I also find tutoring enormously rewarding. At both school and university, I have held a number of positions which have entailed passing on my knowledge and experience to younger students, and I hope to do just that as your tutor.
