Tutored over 900 hoursA*AA A-levels - PE/Biology/ChemistrySat the UCATSEN2900 UCATDyslexia support from a dyslexic4 offers for MedicineHelped over 150 students

Hi, my name is Arun and I am currently a 5th year medical student at Sheffield University. I had 4 interviews and received offers from all four. I am a well-experienced tutor having completed over 2000 hours of tutoring in a range of topics, from GCSEs and A-Levels to UCAT and interviews as well as university consultations

I was one of the few students to undertake the A-level exams in November 2020 after my exams were cancelled due to Coronavirus. I am dyslexic so I have weird and wonderful ways to remember critical information and I hope I can support prospective doctors (dyslexic or non) to achieve their dream of becoming a medical professional.

I was not labelled as your typical medical student by my school. I continued to persevere until I reached the goal that I set for myself, with the help of my family.

I hope we can work well together and achieve what you want, just like I did. 🙂

I am a dedicated and experienced tutor with a passion for empowering children and adults with special educational needs (SEN) and neurodivergent conditions to discover the joy in learning.

I’m skilled at creating bespoke, inclusive lesson plans that cater to diverse learning styles and individual needs, and strive to create a positive, uplifting atmosphere during my sessions that promote a positive attitude towards learning.

I have a person-centred approach, and focus on the interests and needs of my students, finding what works best for them and using these avenues to facilitate learning.

Beyond tutoring, I am a professional musician, with vast experience in the create industry. I have a passion for all things history, nature, sci-fi and fantasy, and find these interests often overlap with my students and help us create strong bonds that enrich the learning experience.

I am an experienced tutor who aims to make learning fun and rewarding. I started tutoring while I was studying my degree and discovered that I loved it! After completing my degree, I started tutoring privately and then joined tutoring companies such as Explore Learning and Catch Up Academy.

I tutor English, math and science from KS1 up to KS3 in person and online. I also tutor 11+ (GL and CEM) and GCSE Maths where I work to prepare students for the exams. I specialise in tutoring people who have SENDs needs or require to be home schooled. I will ensure that the student’s needs are met during the sessions and I am flexible when it comes to tutoring. I can also support you with developing coping strategies, build confidence or finding different approaches when it comes to learning or taking exams.

My goal to provide a safe and encouraging learning environment where the student has accomplished their goal by the end of the session. I will also support students to build their confidence, learn from mistakes and to apply their knowledge. I will always provide feedback at the end of every session so the student is kept up to date on what they’ve accomplished.

    Hi, I’m LucyAnne! I’m 23 years old and I live in London. I work as an actor and freelance singer, and also part-time as a teaching assistant and a tutor.

    I studied History, English, Music and Biology at A Level (3 A*s, 1A) and, while at school, also gained two diplomas in French Horn (LRSM and DipABRSM) alongside Grade 8 Singing (ABRSM) and Verse & Prose (LAMDA), Grade 7 Piano (ABRSM) and Acting (LAMDA) and Grade 5 Music Theory (ABRSM). I then undertook a BA in History and English at Oxford, during which time I was awarded two scholarships for academic achievement. Since graduating in 2021, I have also gained an Acting Diploma from the London School of Dramatic Art.

    I absolutely loved my time at uni, and while at school I was lucky enough to have some amazing teachers that showed me how fun learning can be. I would love to be able to inspire others like I was inspired.

    My hobbies include cooking, reading and going on walks around my local area looking for cats to stroke!

    I’m Charlotte, a Graduate from the University of Cambridge with a Masters and BA in Physical Natural Sciences. I would love to help you achieve your academic potential! With a proven track record of academic excellence at GCSE, and A level (4 A*) I have maintained a wide scope of discipline whilst at university. Before finding a passion for History and Philosophy of Science this year, I have previously taken university modules in Mathematics, Physics, Materials Science and Earth Sciences, making full use of the diversity the Cambridge Natural Sciences course provides. With over 5 years tutoring experience in the sciences and maths, I have developed an enthusiastic and positive approach to help you achieve your potential. I’m a strong believer in practice exam questions as the key to success, so not only will I deal with the challenging concepts of the syllabus with clarity but teach you how to best apply this knowledge to an exam situation. I am unique in that as a Cambridge Organ Scholar I was able to apply to both Oxford and Cambridge, and thus have gone through the preparations for entrance exams and interviews for both institutions, before receiving an unconditional offer from Cambridge. This means I’m highly equipped to tutor both the NSAA and the PAT, as well as skilled at helping you to master the environment of the Oxbridge interview. I’m confident, concise, and committed to helping you achieve your fullest potential in your chosen academic avenue.

    First-class degree from Oxford3/3 students secured Oxford offers in 2025

    Hi, I’m Oli! I’m a recent first-class Music graduate from New College, Oxford. I have tutored in Oxbridge Music admissions for four years, with a strong record of guiding candidates to application success.

    I achieved top grades in Oxford across a broad range of topics, including Analysis & Criticism, Composition, SCART (stylistic composition), Performance, and Special Topics (music historiography). I am a flautist by trade, formerly the Principal Flute of Oxford Festival Orchestra and a side-by-side alumnus of the professional Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra. I am regularly booked as a concert soloist by 50+ venues, many of which involve taking music into community. I am also a freelance composer and arranger: several of my works have been performed in concert and I work regularly with Warner Music UK as a choir arranger.

    Outside of music, I am completing a postgraduate conversion course in Law and will begin as a Trainee Solicitor at a Music and Media specialist law firm in October 2026. Contrary to the popular myth, there really are many interesting and varied careers that a Music degree can lead you towards!

    I am an enthusiastic, capable, and experienced tutor in Music, who is passionate about unlocking the potential of each individual student. I hope to work with you soon!

    Hello there, my name is Esin and I study Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford. My degree is like any other Psychology degree, but with the added focus towards experimental design, statistics, and data analysis. In preparation for this degree, I took Biology, Maths, and Chemistry at school, as well as Psychology, to supplement my ability to interpret and produce scientific writing.

    Additionally, the Oxbridge application process is a distinct and memorable one, with interview styles being updated year to year. As a current Oxford student, I bring the advantage of having very recently gone through the application process myself and having friends in many different departments and degrees that can offer insights from their own recent experience.

    Besides my scientific and academic interests, I also play piano and took Music Theory in adherence to the ABRSM curriculum. I would be very happy to tutor in the area of Psychology and Human Sciences, Oxbridge applications, or music.

    Thank you for considering me for tutoring. I hope I can be of help by offering my skills and experience.
