I loved my experience with Study Mind. The tutors were very friendly, and I liked how they tailored the approach to my weaknesses, with regular homework and testing in between the Zoom 1-1 lessons.

    Hi! My name is Minhaj and I love tutoring. I am a recent graduate from the University of Cambridge with a master’s degree in engineering. I have quite a lot of experience when it comes to tutoring and mentoring students of all age groups in mainly STEM subjects. I have achieved 11A*s at GCSE and 4 A*s at A Level (in maths, further maths, physics and chemistry) so you can be confident in having me as your tutor for explaining even the most difficult content and helping you prepare well for exams!

    My main academic interests lie within STEM areas, primarily maths and physics. This is why I chose to pursue engineering at university since it embodies both of these subjects with real-life applicable contexts. I did many super curricular activities throughout my academy journey including UKMT maths challenges (achieved GOLD twice) and attending the Isaac Physics Summer School at the University of Cambridge in Corpus Christi College (only 40 students were invited nationally).

    I have experience in tutoring students from primary school all the way to students doing their A Levels (or equivalent). I also have experience in mentoring students for their university applications in STEM subjects including Oxbridge applicants. My primary area of focus for mentoring university applicants would be engineering applicants for Oxbridge. But I am also looking to mentor students in other STEM areas such as physics or maths, since the interviews and admissions test preparation often takes a similar journey. I am familiar with all the major UK STEM admissions test including the ENGAA, NSAA, MAT, PAT and TMUA (I practised with these myself for my admissions test) so I would be willing to help students prepare for these. I currently mentor and tutor many students for STEM applications to top universities including Oxbridge and Imperial College London. I help students with all aspects of their application including helping with writing personal statements and preparing for admissions tests as well as interviews.

    Offer from OxfordA*A*A*A* at A LevelA* in Engineering EPQ (98%)Offer from Imperial CollegeOffer from UCLOffer from WarwickOffer from SouthamptonAwarded Senior Scholarship at SchoolDistinction in British Mathematical Olympiad

    Hi I am Vivek, I am a first year undergraduate studying Engineering Science at the University of Oxford. I achieved 4A*s at A Levels and 11 9s at GCSE and I offer tutoring in maths and physics at GCSE and A-Level standard. I also offer tutoring for university admissions especially for the PAT and for engineering/physics interviews.

    I believe my first-hand experience and knowledge in these areas would not only improve your skills in the short term but also grow a deeper understanding of the subject as a whole. I offer a variety of teaching and assessment methods which would nurture your understanding of individual topics and how they link together. One of the reasons I took up tutoring is to see my students achieve their goals, no matter what they are. Whether it be getting a high score in a public exam, or even just improve in a topic they were previously struggling on, I love seeing my students achieve their goals

    Cambridge BA 2022UCL MSc 2024Offer from CambridgeOffer from ImperialOffer from DurhamOffer from UCLA*A*A*A* at A-Level11 A*s at GCSE

    Hi, I’m Fran! I am a postgraduate student at UCL, studying for MSc Science Technology and Society, which I hope to finish in 2024. In 2022, I graduated with a BA in Natural Sciences from the University of Cambridge, where I specialised in Materials Science in my final year. I’m super passionate about science, and love science communication and policy-making. In my spare time, I enjoy rock-climbing, reading, board games, and music.
    I have been tutoring privately for around 5 years now, and I love it! I enjoy spreading my passion for science and love discussing new and interesting topics and issues in science with my students. I think it’s really important to engage children and young people with science, to encourage the next generation of medics, mathematicians, scientists, and engineers.

      My name is Emily and I am currently studying towards an MEng in Materials Science at The Queen’s College, Oxford. Prior to University, I attended a state grammar school where I was the sole student to get into Oxford. I have got lots of experience in mentoring students for Oxbridge interviews, and have helped many with proof reading and tailoring their personal statements, too, as this can be the outstanding factor when universities choose who to offer a place to! I am highly charismatic and enthusiastic about my studies, and hope this is reflected both in my teaching and also in the results I can obtain in my students, as I have found many times students struggle to understand concepts as they either lack motivation or it hasn’t been taught to them in such a way that they can easily grasp and understand. I firmly believe everyone learn even the most challenging of topics, it just needs to be viewed from a different perspective, as everyone thinks differently!

      Hi, I’m Lachlan and I’m currently working towards my Master’s Degree in Engineering Science. I study at St Catherine’s College, Oxford. I have a keen interest in engineering, maths and physics, and when I’m not working, I spend my free time working on DIY projects and making music.

      I offer coaching for the Oxford admissions process, specialising in students who need to sit the PAT. I can provide mock interviews and personal statement advice for Engineering or Materials students, as well as PAT coaching. I am also able to tutor Maths, Physics and Further Maths at GCSE and A-Level, and additionally the Engineering stream of the Design Technology A-Level.

      I have been interested in STEM from a young age, excelling at Maths and Physics at school, attending NASA student outreach programs and achieving an Arkwright Scholarship for engineering science, which enabled me to follow my passion and make it through the arduous Oxford admissions process.

      Over the course of my degree so far, I have gained experience in many different fields of engineering, such as materials science, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and structural mechanics. However, I specialise in electronics, information and control engineering.

      I grew up surrounded by computers from the 80s and 90s, and I enjoy spending my time restoring and modifying them, such as my iMac G3 and Atari 1040 ST. I also enjoy creative projects, having previously built a hovercraft using a garden chair, a shower curtain and a leaf blower!

      Whether it is the whole syllabus or just some harder topics, I am here to help you achieve the best results you can. I have enjoyed teaching a range of subjects from Sport to Physics to ages of 8 to 18, and have learnt many different ways to engage students. This means I will be flexible in my teaching methods to make lessons exciting and engaging for you. I am also always up for explaining the challenging and difficult concepts which can come up in Physics, Maths, Chemistry and Engineering in fun and different ways. I look forward to working with you !

        I was very happy with my Physics tutor, who helped me with my weaker areas in the PAT including calculations and formulae. His knowledge was very good, and he was able to articulate and communicate this into effective lessons.

        Daniel was a pleasure to work with, his teaching was structured and he genuinely cared about my progress. I was very nervous and stressed in the build up to my PAT exam, and he took extra time out to speak to me and motivate me.
