STEP Teachers : 1-1 STEP Lessons

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!

Hi, I’m Tom. I have been tutoring for 5 years and I would be delighted to take you on as my next student! My own academic journey has been incredibly fulfilling, providing me with exciting opportunities and transforming my approach to learning. Through my studies, I developed a deep passion for my subjects, honed my problem-solving skills, and built the confidence to tackle complex challenges.

I find immense joy in guiding students on their own academic paths. The most rewarding aspect of tutoring for me is witnessing the growth in my students – seeing their understanding deepen, their grades improve, and their confidence soar. I firmly believe that the skills and mindsets developed through our work together will serve them well not just in their immediate academic pursuits, but in all their future endeavors. Whether you’re aiming for top grades, preparing for university admissions, or simply looking to deepen your understanding of maths and science, I’m here to support and inspire you every step of the way.

Hi! I’m Mieszko.

I was successful in an application to study Computer Science at Oxford, while helping to lead a twice-a-week 2 hour long mentoring sessions, tutoring 3 other students with their admissions tests. One of these got an interview at Oxford, another got into Oxford, and a third was successful in applying to Cambridge.

Since then, I’ve completed 2 years in Oxford (after an early transfer to a joint honours Maths and Computer Science course). In my most recent exams, I achieved the equivalent of a first class – “the equivalent of” because the actual results combine both this year, and the next one.

Outside college, I do a decent amount of sports, including hiking, squash and judo, though recently I’ve been quite into pool. I play piano, watch a fair amount of TV and read a fair amount of books – recently both have been “This Is Going To Hurt – Diaries of a Junior Doctor”.

Hi, my name is Abhay and I am an economics teacher at a prestigious private school in London, having graduated from Cambridge University (studying economics) with a strong Master’s.

I have extensive experience from practice and tutoring of TMUA, TSA and MAT papers, as well as GCSE and A-Level Maths and Economics, having tutored well over 1000 hours across four years.

Prior to university, I achieved 12 A*/9 at GCSE and 4 A* at A-Level at Westminster School. I received offers from Cambridge, LSE, Warwick and UCL for Economics, so I have an understanding of the admissions process. My role as a teacher of course only compounds this. Thus I also tutor for Personal Statements and, later, for interviews.

As an economics student, there is A LOT of Maths involved – hence me doing Further Maths at A-Level and achieving A*A* – I am kept fresh by the challenging Econometrics modules I have taken. Within economics, my strengths lie in Macroeconomics although my interest is probably in Micro! Outside of academics, I play the guitar, and sportswise I play cricket, badminton and football.

As a tutor, I teach collaboratively – you will be informing me of where you think you are weakest, and where you really want to focus – with a higher number of hours I would like to cover the whole syllabus, but this is not always possible of course.

My name is Kathryn and I am originally from Toronto, Canada. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Life Sciences at Queen’s University in Canada and went on to complete my Master’s in Biomedical and Molecular Sciences also at Queen’s. My Master’s focused on cardiovascular research, which is a field that I will continue to pursue as an academic doctor as part of the Cambridge Academic Foundation Programme. Apart from medicine, I really enjoy the outdoors, cycling, and traveling. I also love trying new foods! As someone who didn’t have these supports growing up, I really want to give back and help other students navigate their way through medicine. After accomplishing my dream with the help of my mentors, I really think that mentorship is critical to this journey so I hope to be a source of academic support, encouragement, and most importantly, a friend.
