TMUA Tutors : 1-1 TMUA Preparation

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 & Imperial. But I am also looking to mentor students in other STEM areas such as physics, maths & computer science 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 ESAT, 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.

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”.

I graduated reading Physics at the University of Oxford.
I was the first from my Sixth Form to attend Oxford.
I have done A Levels: Physics (A*), Maths (A*), Further Maths (A), and Spanish (A*).
I enjoy tutoring students with their A levels and admissions tests to help them achieve their dream universities.
I tailor my tutoring style must be catered to each individual student. I build a rapport with my students, understanding their strengths and weaknesses and how they learn best. I firmly believe that the best teaching can be done from a place of having struggled to understand concepts, and finding a way to overcome this. Throughout school and university many lessons took a long time to click for me, and I had to find what worked for me. Nothing brings me more joy than finding what helps my students to finally understand something.
Past students I have tutored have gone on to achieve offers from universities such as Oxford, ICL, and Durham.

My name is Anmol and I am a Computer Science graduate from the University of Cambridge and have completed my Masters in Computer Science from Imperial College London. I have 4 years of experience tutoring TMUA, MAT, STEP, A-level Maths and A-level Further Maths. I also have extensive experience helping with the University admissions process, providing mock interviews and personal statement help. I have helped over 20 students achieve Oxbridge offers and achieve their grades. This extensive experience allows me to quickly understand where students can improve and what topics may be best to focus on. I also created the TMUA and MAT notes for StudyMind and have expert insight into the resources. I personally did A-level Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Economics and achieved 4A*s and sat the TMUA and STEP exams where I got a 7.2 and Grade 1 respectively.

Hey! My name is Shyam and I am a 3rd year maths student at Cambridge. I have experience teaching younger students during A-levels as part of a charity program known as MathsMakers, where I volunteered to help students catch up with their peers by guiding them to learn and truly understand the mathematics they are being taught rather than blindly accepting rules. I enjoy teaching as it allows to to give back to the world as well as the opportunity to ensure students can appreciate what they are learning instead of memorising content for the sake of memorising it. I attended a non-grammar state school growing up so was not given sufficient help when preparing for entrance tests and interviews and aim to ensure that others don’t have to self-teach and instead can be given the attention and help required to prosper.

Hi – I’m Rituraj, I recently graduated from a Masters in Maths and Philosophy at Oxford – and I obtained a first class degree. I achieved 5 A* at A-level and 11 9s at GCSE.

I have four years of tutoring experience – focusing on mathematics, philosophy and science tutoring for Oxbridge admissions/Olympiad/A-Levels/GCSEs/school admissions. This includes extracurricular mathematics, working through the syllabus, and interview prep.

I am interested in being a tutor because I am passionate about spreading my love of academia, and sparking an interest in the topics I myself am interested in. Having had previous experience in education, in both one-to-one personal tutoring and teaching in a structured class environment, I am certain this is my career path of choice, and this would be the perfect opportunity to further my career goals. I have taught at Akshar Foundation, an Indian Teaching NGO, for underprivileged students, to A-Level Standard, and WILS Language School, a Korean Hagwon, for Oxbridge entry, having taught A-Level Maths/English/Physics and further computational courses.

I’ve just graduated from the University of Oxford with a degree in mathematics, and I have a genuine passion for tutoring. Over the past few years, I’ve gained extensive experience teaching students of all abilities and have consistently received positive feedback for my engaging and supportive approach. This year, I’m dedicating my time entirely to tutoring because I find it incredibly rewarding to help students reach their potential.

During university I specialised in mathematical physics and found this area fascinating! I did my dissertation on “The implications of Noether’s Theorem in Quantum Field Theory” which actually wasn’t as scary as it sounds 🙂

I’m 21, from Warwickshire, and attended my local comprehensive school, so I’m familiar with the challenges and opportunities of the current curriculum. As someone with dyslexia, I understand the importance of adapting teaching methods to suit different learning styles and have experience working with students with various learning difficulties.

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.

Hi, I’m Varun

I currently study Computer Science at the University of Cambridge, having achieved near perfect grades in both IGCSE and IB. I have previously succeeded in both the BMO and come top 50 in the country in the BPhO, and I’m therefore perfect to tutor anyone to success in Maths, Physics and Computer Science.

Due to technology being a long-standing interest of mine (for the better part of a decade) I have extensive knowledge on a wide variety of topics, especially those that show up in personal statements and those ready to impress any admissions tutors. I have moderate to extensive experience in upwards of 10 programming languages, and experience developing in a wide array of fields in both personal projects and in a commercial environment.

I would love to assist those looking to ace their secondary school exams and/or university admissions so feel free to contact me if you would like my help.
