Hi there! My name is Grace and I have just 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 several years now so I have lots of experience, and I really enjoy being able to help students wherever I can. I’ve 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 – I’ve always seen myself becoming a teacher, and my career plan is to become a university lecturer!

I received my early education in Kent, studying at Tonbridge School where I achieved 7 A*’s and 3 A’s at GCSE level. I then went on to study my A levels, I chose Pre-U art, Mathematics, Geography, and Physics where i achieved A*,A*,A*, B respectively. I applied to study Architecture at Cambridge, UCL, Sheffield, and Lancaster. I was successful in all my applications but in the end, I chose Cambridge.

During my time at university, I engaged well with my academic studies as well as extra-curricular activities. To name one, I found a passion in rowing which taught me a great deal about leadership and working as a team. During the breaks between terms, I had the chance to work in a small architectural firm in London which gave me invaluable experience. Even getting the chance to design a real project on my own.

I have now completed my undergraduate degree in Architecture at Cambridge where I achieved a 2, 1. I am now looking to join the working world for the next two years, after which I will return to my studies for a Masters in Architecture. More specifically I am intent on gathering a variety of work experience, and tutoring is an integral part of this.

I specialise as a tutor who provides support in Cambridge Architecture admissions. I can adapt my tuition to a variety of subjects and interests, which is integral to distinguishing a candidate from the competition. I am well versed in the strategies employed by Cambridge interviewers that can throw off many candidates, and understand exactly what they are looking for in a student. In addition, I can provide a plethora of support that includes Interview practice, portfolio reviews, personal statement reviews, examination tests, and much more. I have a great deal of experience providing these services and I love to encourage and inspire students to achieve their true potential and academic goals.

Hi there, my name is Ronan Goss and I am a recent 1st class land economy graduate at the university of Cambridge. Since I was 16 I have tutored various students in a range of subjects and levels, including mathematics and economics. More recently I have tutored 8 students who have applied to Land Economy at Cambridge, assisting in personal statement writing, admission tests, and interview preparation. Some of these students have started or will be starting at Cambridge, with many others securing places at the UK’s most prestigious universities.

In my spare time I love to travel, and I am currently living in and around Portugal tutoring remotely. After travelling I have an offer to join a leading consulting firm based in the UK.

If you have any questions about my tutoring or would like to know more about my teaching please feel free to contact me!

Hi, I am Ekansh, a second-year Medical student studying at St. George’s, University of London. I am quite experienced with tutoring, and as someone who is a recent school leaver, I am also well acquainted with teaching these concepts to fellow peers back when I was still in school.

I have scored well in both GCSEs/IGCSEs (8 A*s) and in IB (43 points), as well as getting 97th percentile (3040) in the UCAT when I sat it during the 2021 session. I am also somebody who received all interview offers as an international applicant applying to the UK, and managed to secure 4 offers for medicine at Newcastle. St. George’s, University of London, UCLAN and Brunel.

I am someone who is very approachable, as I believe that this is a key quality that a teacher must showcase to their students, in order to foster a better relationship between them. In doing so, students can easily ask any doubts and clarify any ideas that they may have trouble understanding, or any external affairs that may be bothering them.

Additionally, I believe that my own personal successes during my time at school came from having approachable and reliable teachers, as well as peers, that were there to support me every step of the way, which included and was not just limited to the subject content that they were responsible for teaching. In doing so, they went above and beyond their duties and really helped foster a safe and nurturing environment for me to progress with my education, which I hope to do with my students as well.

– Edexcel Mathematics (9-1) – 9

IGCSEs:
– Additional Mathematics (A*)

Hi! I am currently a postgraduate student at King’s College London, pursuing a degree in Critical Theory. I am passionate about sociology and social philosophy, which form a major part of my academic research at university. I am a keen, critically-oriented tutor, eager to interact with a breadth of students. Education is perhaps the only space where a wealth of ideas may circulate amongst people with no inherent hierarchy, and I want to channel this potential into productive, progressive goals. I thrive on building new connections and engaging in thoughtful conversations, encouraging practices of mutual respect and open-mindedness no matter whom I am talking to. Being a tutor should never mean that one is “superior” to those they are tutoring; instead, it merely signals more experience which, when communicated with nuance and complexity, allows for a two-way exchange rather than a top-down, teacher-student relationship. I look forward to working with you!

Hi! My name is Afreen and I just started my third year at Aston University. I completed the CBSE curriculum until grade 10 after which I switched to the IB Diploma Programme for my final two years of school. I also did and International Foundation Programme for Medicine prior to applying for medicine at Aston University and UCLan. All of these experiences tested my resilience to pursue a degree in medicine and I understand first hand the lack of motivation one might face in the process of applying to medicine.

When studying IB, I really enjoyed Psychology, Spanish and English aside from Biology as well as doing other activities such as volunteering. IB also teaches you a lot about time management and improving your work-life balance which is essential in navigating medical school.

A career in the medical field requires a lot of patience and determination; I, myself have questioned my capabilities multiple times which is why I would like to help as many students as I can in pursuing their dream 🙂
