Secondary Entrance Tutors : 1-1 Secondary Entrance Preparation

My name is Nehan, I am 21 Years old and have been through the ups and downs of school life and studies and want to be there to help you get through it and help you get the grades and results for your next chapter in life. I have lots of different hobbies like: Badminton, chess, gaming and table tennis. Also I am a massive football fan loving Manchester United. I went to Salesian College in Farnborough before being accepted to do Dentistry at the University of Liverpool. I am at the start of my third year and am finding it exhilarating especially as I have seen my first patient already! I have received tutoring throughout my schooling experience so I know what it is like to be a student and I have tutored at Explore Learning so I also know how to tutor therefore I know what it is like to be on both sides of the equation. Overall I am a Positive, determined and diligent person that wants to work with you to improve not only your academic ability, but also your confidence in the subject in a more engaging and active way.

I’m Simran and I’m a first year medical student at the University of Liverpool. I achieved 3/4 medical school offers at Bart’s, Liverpool and Leicester. I hope to help others find the confidence in themselves going forward and support them in achieving their respective goals. No goal is too ambitious! I hope to support you in pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone and adopting a growth mindset. Only when we push ourselves a little can we truly develop as a person and flourish both personally, socially and academically. It’s true that we will always be faced with failure in one form or another but by learning resilience, perseverance and working effectively rather than harder, you can achieve your goals. I hope to help and support you in your own personal journeys in the future. I wish you all luck with your respective goals!

I recently graduated with a Masters in Global and Imperial History from the University of Oxford in June 2023 after having completed my Bachelors in History from Oxford in June 2022. At university, I was involved with various student societies, most recently having completed my term as Editor-in-Chief of the Oxford Review of Books. Currently on a gap year, I am looking forward to tutoring students interested in academic study at Oxford or Cambridge, with a particular focus on the Humanities. I would love to hear from students who require extra help with school or academic work. Equally, I would be happy to provide ‘liberal arts’ tutoring for students interested in the Humanities that goes beyond the limits of a school curriculum and introduces them to the vast diversity of subjects and skills that the Humanities has to offer. This knowledge can be especially useful for students while writing EPQs or other forms of coursework as well as providing a good foundation before embarking on undergraduate study.

Hi, I’m Raul!
I’m currently in fourth year at BSMS. So far I have helped students with UCAT, BMAT, IMAT, HUMAT and with their interview techniques. I have taught students from all across the world – including places like Japan, Qatar, Poland and many students from the UK.

At A-level, I did chemistry, biology and English literature which I found worked well for the essay components of the course. Getting the right balance between revising for A-levels and applying to medicine can be difficult but it is important to remember that both need focus.

I’m have just finished a BSc in Global health at the University of Manchester as a year out of medicine. As part of the course, I spent the whole of January in Mumbai completing my own research project. The course was really relaxed and it was a needed break from the intensity of medicine. I’d recommend choosing a uni course with the option to intercalate in case it’s something you might want to go for down the line.

I have loved medicine and I know the journey there is long and it can be difficult to see the end, but it is worth it. The degree is engaging and the work is manageable. It’s been some of the best years of my life and it’s a joy to watch students begin the same journey.

Hi, I’m Mamta, a first year medical student at the University of Birmingham.
I’m very passionate about teaching and have been tutoring for more three years, helping with personalised exam preparation and revision techniques based on first hand experience as well as supporting younger students with key skills.

I achieved 3A*s as well as 10 Grade 9s in my GCSEs, so I feel that I am able to draw upon my own experience to help students with the content covered as well as key revision tips. This includes creating a revision plan from the very beginning so that when it comes to exams, these are as stress-free as possible. I also find that frequent reviews of prior topics helps to really ingrain knowledge and means that it is more intuitive to recall or apply when it comes to practice questions.

Hi, my name is Talia and I am currently a first year student studying Medical Sciences at the University of Exeter. I have been tutoring a range of students of different ages with various goals over the past 3 years. This has included students completing their A-levels and GCSES as well as students sitting their 11+ exams. My past 11+ students have been successful in acquiring places at Tiffins and Henrietta Barnett. I am a committed tutor, aiming to help my students reach their full potential. Personally, I find tutoring very rewarding because it encourages a child to grow in confidence and attain their goals. I use an interactive approach to teaching by providing personalised instructions and using a variety of teaching tools. Additionally, I am flexible with my timings and aim to accommodate my students’ timetables.

My name is Catherine and I’m a 2nd year dental surgery student at University of Leeds. I have experience with tutoring and I’m passionate about widening access to dentistry. I have a question-based and interactive approach to tutoring and believe that anyone can achieve top grades with enough motivation.

I offer lessons in Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics at GCSE and A- Level (bar Mathematics). Additionally, I offer tuition for 11+ entrance exams. I offer online tutoring sessions and am available for regular weekly sessions or occasional support as needed. I have taken A-Levels in all the subjects that I offer and have achieved A*A*A*. I am well-versed in the curriculum and exam formats for biology, chemistry, and maths at various levels, including GCSE and A-Level. I am also skilled at breaking down complex topics into simpler, more manageable parts, ensuring that students grasp the fundamental concepts before moving on to more advanced material.

I understand that each student has different goals and aspirations, and I am committed to helping them achieve their academic objectives. Whether it’s improving grades, preparing for exams, or building a solid foundation in these subjects, I will work closely with students to ensure their success.

Hi I’m Alina!. I’m a second year medical student at the University of Liverpool. I really enjoy meeting new people and helping them to achieve their goals so tutoring is a great fit!

At A-level I studied Biology (A*), Chemistry (A) and English Literature (A*).

At GCSE, the main subjects I studied were: Maths (8), English Literature (9), English Language (9), Biology (9), Physics (9) and Chemistry (8)

The academic demands of applying to medicine are high, and as such, I had to develop a strong work ethic and revision/exam techniques, which I am more than happy to pass on in our sessions.

I used tutors throughout secondary school, mainly for help with Biology, Chemistry and English. I found the help of my tutors invaluable; without it, I don’t think I would have achieved the same grades or even gotten into medical school!

I also think that the interview preparation course that I attended was crucial to me receiving offers from Medical schools. This allowed me to face my fears by stimulating the interview environment so boosted my confidence for the real ones. I also think the feedback I received was so useful to reflect on and analyse in order to improve my performance. I therefore would really like to help others in the same position!

I have been a tutor for over eight years and have developed a unique teaching style that enables all of my students to improve their grades and master the mark scheme to ensure they know not only the content but also how to secure the marks needed.

I have also had experience working with different tutoring and medical school preparation companies, delivering personalised application services. 100% of my students have received interviews and offers from universities due to my admissions test prep, MMI & panel interview help and personal statement help.

I have had students who come to me with grade 4 in subjects and end up achieving a grade 9 with my services. Seeing personal growth with my students is very rewarding, and this is why I continue to tutor, mentor, and guide students of all ages.
