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. 🙂

A-Level - A & A* GCSE - 8 & 9A & A*

Hello! My name is Hikari.
I have more than five years of overall teaching experience. After completing my master’s degree, I aspire to become a full-time teacher. During this time, I have taught a wide range of courses, including GCSE Economics, GCSE Business Studies, A/level Economics, A/level Business Studies, IELTS, phonics, Eiken, Business English, and conversation.
As soon as I graduated from school, many students approached me to tutor them in Economics and business studies. I then began tutoring A/Level and O/Level Economics and Business Studies. All of the students I’ve taught so far have excelled in their Edexcel and Cambridge exams. Last year, one of my students won the subject prize.
During my academic journey, I have had the opportunity to study Economics at both the GCSE and A-Level levels, following the curriculum offered by prestigious examination boards such as Cambridge and Edexcel. I enjoy teaching Business Studies mainly. My experience in Economics has been enriching and insightful, allowing me to develop a solid understanding of fundamental economic principles and concepts. I am excited to share my knowledge and expertise as a tutor. With a passion for teaching and a strong grasp of economic principles, I am well-equipped to guide students through the complexities of the subject. My teaching approach focuses on breaking down complex concepts into easily digestible parts, providing real-world examples to enhance understanding, and fostering critical thinking skills. I am dedicated to creating a supportive learning environment that encourages active participation and growth. By choosing me as their Economics tutor, students can expect engaging lessons, personalized attention, and the tools necessary to excel in their exams and develop a deep appreciation for the subject.
I worked as a full-time teacher at a reputable international school. In addition to full-time teaching, I spent nearly two years teaching volunteers, primarily Japanese students residing in Japan, as well as overseas communication and other skills. I have also earned three diplomas to provide my students with the greatest education possible. I continued to become a TEFL/TESOL certified teacher. Teaching has become my favorite place to share my knowledge and assist students in their growth.

UCAT Top 1% Overall (3200) (also BMAT top 5%)5 A*s at A level11A*s + Distinction + 9 at GCSE4th Year Cambridge Medical StudentBA (Cambridge)3 years tutoring experienceWorked at a centre for developmental difficulties

Hi, my name is Aviral! I’m a 4th year medical student at the University of Cambridge. Back when I completed my A levels and GCSEs I attained A*s across the board. However, now that I have completed my bachelor’s degree (BA Cantab) and have 3 years of tutoring under my belt, experience has matured my knowledge and teaching style.

I have a passion for helping students learn to learn themselves – tutoring should prepare a student to learn rather than just how to regurgitate information! I also know how gruelling the medical application process can be. It is challenging to integrate applications for several separate universities into 1 PS while preparing for an onslaught of interviews. I am experienced in helping students prepare for all parts of the application process, including the UCAT, in which I scored in the top 0.1%.

Aside from my focus on the sciences, I also have experience in programming. I gained formal experience in this as part of my bioinformatics component of my degree, in which I attained a high first-class mark (78%). Otherwise, I use coding in statistical analysis in research and for designing productivity tools to assist note taking. I am happy to help beginners wanting to get to grips with coding!

In other words, I want to help students gain skills for their higher education and beyond not just prepare for exams. Yet all the same, I help students learn the realism of targeted learning. Many things in secondary school to university applications and even higher education are based on some sort of mark scheme!

    I have graduated from the University of Oxford with a 2.1 in Philosophy and Theology. Prior to attending Oxford, I achieved A*A*A* in English Literature, Latin and Religious Studies, with 5 A*S, 4 Grade 9s and a Grade 8 in GCSEs.

    For the past few years, I have been a private tutor which has also entailed mentoring young students and seeing them progress and achieving their dream spots at their universities. This has enabled me to build client relationships and to handle multiple concurrent tasks, since I balanced tutoring with my ability to thrive in Oxford’s rigorous academic environment. I also believe that I work well under time constraints and to meet deadlines, which is an ability that my time at Oxford has prepared me well for.

    I am well-placed to provide tuition at 11 and 13+, as well as English Language, English Literature and RE GCSE, A-Level and degree-level tuition. I am also up-to-date on examination syllabi and the requirements needed for achieving top marks.

    I have tutoring experience in GCSE English Language, GCSE English Literature, GCSE Religious Studies and Oxbridge Classics admissions. I also mentor students in application for Oxbridge Classics, as I changed degrees in my third year, and assisted a student in her successful entrance to Oxford for Classics via personal statement, interview/test advice and general information about the course and university life. Therefore, I am available to support Oxbridge Classics admissions.

    Hi there, and welcome! I’m a passionate tutor with years of experience helping students unlock their true academic potential.

    Having recently graduated from Queen’s University with a BSc (Hons) in Human Biology, I bring both deep subject knowledge and real-life study experience into every session. I’ve tutored students across KS3 and Year 7 through to GCSE and A level, both in person and online, and I’m proud to say I’ve helped many achieve the grades they once thought were out of reach.

    My approach is personal and purposeful: I work with each student to identify their individual areas of weakness, break down tricky concepts, and steadily build confidence topic by topic. Once they’ve built a solid foundation, we dive into past papers so they’re fully prepared for the wording, style, and structure of real exams. My goal is to help every student earn the results they deserve—and feel proud doing it.
    If you’re looking for a dedicated, hardworking tutor who genuinely cares about your success, let’s get started.
