    Having been in your position not too long ago, I can understand these exams and application processes can be a very stressful and daunting period. Sometimes, it can appear all too overwhelming and it can be hard to remember what all of this stress is for.

    Our preparation together will deepen your knowledge, understanding and exam technique to enable you to go into your exams feeling confident you can do your very best. Throughout our sessions I endeavour to ensure you can achieve the very top grades by facilitating engaging yet challenging sessions to enable you to succeed in your examinations / interviews.

    I have a passion for education and widening access for students from all backgrounds who aspire to study at top universities. In the past year I have throughly enjoyed dedicating my time to assist students with medical school applications and A-levels through both tutoring and outreach programmes.

    I look forward to our first session together!

    Hello, my name is Ariana Rubio. I am a recent graduate of the University of Oxford (2023), where I achieved a high 2:1 in English Language & Literature. I scored in the top 10% (55/60) on the ELAT (admissions test for English) and performed well at interview to win a place at Oxford. I am currently teaching English abroad and applying for master’s degrees in English.

    At secondary school, I got 11 A*s at GCSE, including English Literature, English Language, Maths, and Additional Maths. I got an A* in English Literature A-level and D1’s (above the A* equivalent) in History and Philosophy Pre-U’s. I won the Prize for Outstanding Academic Achievement, which is awarded to the top scholar in the year, in Years 11, 12, and 13.

    Alongside maintaining my high academic standards, I have tutored for a number of years. I volunteered as a homework tutor at my local library from 2015-2019, helping students in years 1-11. As an academic mentor at my school, I tutored younger students in English and History from 2017 to 2019.

    I am eager to tutor students in English, History, and Religious Studies/Philosophy at GCSE and A-level. I would especially like to assist aspiring Oxbridge applicants with personal statement, ELAT and interview preparation.

      UCAT: Top 25% decileInterview: Offer from LiverpoolOffer from AstonA-level: A*A*AA* in EPQ (45/50)GCSE: Eight 9'stwo 8's and one 7

      Hi I’m Alina!. I’m a second year medical student at the University of Liverpool. I really enjoy meeting new people and helping them to achieve their goals so tutoring is a great fit!

      At A-level I studied Biology (A*), Chemistry (A) and English Literature (A*).

      At GCSE, the main subjects I studied were: Maths (8), English Literature (9), English Language (9), Biology (9), Physics (9) and Chemistry (8)

      The academic demands of applying to medicine are high, and as such, I had to develop a strong work ethic and revision/exam techniques, which I am more than happy to pass on in our sessions.

      I used tutors throughout secondary school, mainly for help with Biology, Chemistry and English. I found the help of my tutors invaluable; without it, I don’t think I would have achieved the same grades or even gotten into medical school!

      I also think that the interview preparation course that I attended was crucial to me receiving offers from Medical schools. This allowed me to face my fears by stimulating the interview environment so boosted my confidence for the real ones. I also think the feedback I received was so useful to reflect on and analyse in order to improve my performance. I therefore would really like to help others in the same position!

      Hi there, I’m Caleb! I recently graduated with a First Class in Biology from the University of Oxford, and I have five years of experience in both tutoring and mentoring in various subjects. I’ve tutored both independently and for international agencies, so I’ve worked with students from a wide variety of nationalities, age groups, and educational backgrounds.

      As a results-driven tutor, I work with my students to identify their specific goals and create a personalised teaching plan to achieve them. I ensure that my lessons are both interactive and engaging for the student by tailoring my teaching style to best suit their specific needs. In all lessons, I place a strong focus on encouraging lateral thinking and guiding students to improve their analytical capabilities through problem-based learning.

      My approach produces excellent results, with most of my students improving by at least one grade boundary (GCSE, A-Level), and I’ve helped many to achieve university offers for Medicine and Oxbridge universities. Alongside tutoring, I provide mentoring for competitive university applications, including support with writing personal statements and studying for entrance tests.

      Student at the University of Cambridgegot students to interview stage

      I am a dedicated and motivated architecture undergraduate at the University of Cambridge, driven by a passion for sustainable design and equipped with a solid foundation in both the creative and technical aspects of the field. My academic journey has honed my ability to blend innovative concepts with practical solutions, aiming to create structures that are both aesthetically pleasing and environmentally responsible.

      Beyond the lecture theatre, I have gained valuable hands-on experience through community projects and internships at architecture firms across Europe. These opportunities have allowed me to develop a diverse skill set, including model making, conducting site visits, and engaging in preliminary design work. My involvement in these projects has also deepened my understanding of real-world challenges and the importance of community-oriented design.

      Through my work, I have cultivated a keen eye for detail and a commitment to excellence, always striving to push the boundaries of traditional architecture. I am eager to continue expanding my knowledge and contributing to projects that prioritize sustainability and innovation, making a positive impact on the built environment.

          Frequently Asked Questions

          If you can’t find the answer you’re looking for in the FAQs, feel free to contact us!

          What are the Common Entrance Exams?

          Common Entrance is a series of exams often taken by students in Year 6 (age 11) or Year 8 (age 13) in order to obtain admission to selective grammar or independent schools.

          How do I register my child for the Common Entrance?

          For pupils applying to grammar schools, the 11-plus exam is normally free. All private schools require you to fill out a registration form and may charge you a non-refundable registration fee (between £100 and £300). Once you accept the position, they may want a deposit, which will be repaid at the end of your child's first term.

          Registration can begin up to 18 months before your child is scheduled to take the examinations, so it's important to apply early to ensure that registration spots are available.

          How often should you tutor a child?

          We recommend scheduling at least two tutoring sessions per week, with each session lasting between one to two hours, to ensure your child receives the support they need. Our experienced common entrance exams tutors can function as teachers and can work with your child to teach their curriculum and reinforce learning.

          💻Where do the sessions take place?

          You will be able to access all the material, including the live lessons, from the comfort of your own home as the lessons are held virtually.

          💰Do I have to pay for all of the lessons upfront?

          We strive to make our courses as accessible as possible. During your FREE one-off consultation with our experienced common entrance exam tutors, you can discuss individual payment plans with our team.
