LAT Tutors : 1-1 LAT Preparation

Hello! I’m Lauren and I have just graduated from the University of Oxford in Modern Languages (Spanish and Russian). This is my second year working with Study Mind, where last year I successfully helped several students gain admission into Oxford University. Outside of academia, I like to stay active, playing rugby for Oxford’s first team. I enjoy travelling and immersing myself in other cultures, which I did a lot of on my year abroad: I have lived and worked in Russia, Colombia, Cuba, Spain, Hungary, and Kazakhstan! Living in foreign countries (often on my own) has made me an outgoing, enthusiastic, and proactive person. It was a very different experience to living on the farm I grew up on in coastal Wales!
I’ve had such a positive experience studying and living in Oxford, and I am excited to share what I have learned with others who are aspiring to study here too. I am happy to give advice on personal statements, interviews, or admissions tests, as well as tutoring GCSEs and A-Levels in a variety of subjects.
Please feel free to reach out!

My name is Lola, I am a third year student of Italian and Spanish at the University of Oxford.

I was born in New York, but grew up attending an international IB school in Serbia.

I moved to London to complete the IB Diploma Programme, where I took Higher Level English Literature, Spanish B and History, alongside Standard Level Mathematics, Biology and Film. To my shock but not my teachers’, I managed to achieve the maximum 45/45 IB points.

I am currently on my Year Abroad and am studying Italian Literature for a semester at the Università di Bologna in Italy. After this, I plan to volunteer in either Spain or Latin America, before returning to Oxford for my final year.

Aside from my greatest passions of Italian and Spanish (both language and literature), I also like to dabble in journalism.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Oxford, with a BA in Modern Languages (Italian and Spanish). Prior to attending The Queen’s College, Oxford, I achieved A* in Spanish, A* in Art and Design, and A in English Literature at A Level. Over the course of my degree I acted as Student Ambassador and Equalities Officer, and was the President of the Oxford University Cheerleading Squad.

With a wide variety of experience in teaching in a classroom as well as in a one-to-one environment, I am well-placed to provide tuition at Key Stage 2 – 5. I am up to date on examination syllabi and am confident in making my students aware of the requirements for achieving top marks. I am a friendly, patient, and enthusiastic tutor who endeavours to connect with my students personally and encourage them to feel comfortable and confident in their academic abilities.

I am an award winning tutor, who has twice won Tutor of the Year awards from the Tutor’s Association, with 20 years teaching/tutoring experience both inside and outside the classroom. I have QTS and have worked as both an examiner and a marker for AQA, EDEXCEL, OCR, and WJEC exam boards.
I have extensive experience tutoring a variety of levels including: Common Entrance, 11+, 13+. International Baccalaureate GCSE’s, A-Level, Undergraduate , and Postgraduate.
I have worked with students for entrance exams and through the interview process various top schools and colleges including Westminster School, Eton, Harrow, City of London School, Dulwich College and Lady Margaret.
I have specific qualifications in Educational Psychology, online teaching, and SEN /EGS teaching.
I am a double BA holder and Masters (Distinction) holder.
I have an excellent academic record and am always looking for stimulating and challenging teaching opportunities.
