About Me

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.

My teaching style

I am quite a versatile tutor and can cater towards a large age range of students as well as their unique learning styles. I like to ensure that my students understand the abstract concepts so that they can adequately apply them in different contexts.

My past experience

I have a lot of tutoring and mentoring experience including teaching at GCSE level, A Level and for University admissions. I currently mentor a lot of students applying to top universities including Oxbridge and Imperial College London by helping them with their personal statement and preparing them for admissions tests as well as admissions interviews.

My Proudest Achievements

Having the opportunity to mentor students, who are in the position that I was once in, is very rewarding. One of my proudest achievements is facilitating the Oxbridge application process for students and helping them secure offers from Oxford and Cambridge.
