Mandarin Tutors: 1-1 Mandarin Preparation

I’m a passionate tutor with experience in a wide range of subjects. I am outgoing and enjoy helping students develop confidence and clarity in their learning.

I tailor my lessons to each student’s level, pace, and goals, making sure they not only understand the material but also enjoy the process. Whether you’re preparing for exams, building foundational skills, or simply want to improve, I’m here to support and guide you. Rather than simply providing answers, I guide students to discover them through carefully chosen examples, thought experiments, and counterexamples. I pay close attention to each student’s strengths and areas for improvement, adapting my approach accordingly—whether that means breaking down complex arguments into manageable parts or pushing advanced students to explore beyond the syllabus. I also stress the importance of revision, feedback, and intellectual humility. Mistakes are treated as learning opportunities, and I aim to foster confidence through mastery rather than shortcuts. Ultimately, my goal is to cultivate both independent thinking and disciplined analysis, so that students leave not just knowing more, but reasoning better.

Feel free to reach out—I look forward to learning together!

Hey! I’m Ivy, a medical student at UCL with a strong academic background and extensive experience tutoring in STEM subjects and medical school applications. At GCSE I achieved the equivalent of 12 A*s, and at A-level I obtained A*AAA in Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. I was awarded Highest in Year Group for three consecutive years in the UK Maths Challenge, consistently ranked top of my year across STEM subjects, and scored up to 99% in A-level exam papers. I also ranked in the top 5% globally for my admission tests and received academic scholarships from top-ranking secondary schools.

Beyond my own studies, I have a proven track record of mentoring and teaching peers. I have conducted mock medical school interviews, reviewed personal statements, and supported applications, helping students successfully secure offers at leading universities including UCL (Education, Medicine), KCL (Medicine), and Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Aerospace Engineering).

As a tutor, I am patient, approachable, and encouraging. I focus on developing students’ problem-solving and critical thinking skills, empowering them to work independently. I am also passionate about widening access to medicine and supporting aspiring applicants in achieving their goals. Being fluent in both English and Chinese, I can adapt my teaching to diverse learners.

Hiya! I’ll be a first-year medical student at Monash University this year. I studied in the UK, so I have first hand experience with GCSEs and A levels, as well as the UCAT, which I sat twice, once for UK applications and once for ANZ applications. Because of this, I’m familiar with both in-person and online exam formats.

I’ve also gone through the medical school application process in both the UK and Australia, so I’m very familiar with the different interview styles used in each system. For every medical school interview I was invited to, I was successful in receiving an offer, which means I can offer practical insight into what interviewers are really looking for.

Throughout school, I mentored students in lower years, helping with all GCSE sciences and Maths at both GCSE and A level. I now also do private tutoring for GCSE and A level Sciences and Maths, so I have experience tailoring explanations to different abilities and learning styles.

My lessons are interactive and student focused, meaning I’ll ask lots of questions, encourage you to explain your thinking, and use diagrams wherever possible. I strongly believe that active learning is the best way to build real understanding. Alongside mastering subject content, I place a big emphasis on exam technique, and we’ll regularly practise past-paper questions so you feel confident and well prepared going into exams.
