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 3 years in Oxford (after an early transfer to a joint honours Maths and Computer Science course). In my final exams, I achieved a strong first class score. I have tutored many students throughout admissions during this time, and have had several students receive offers and interviews and Oxbridge.
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”.
My teaching style
I’m friendly and relaxed, and I focus on both genuine understanding and exam technique. Exams for STEM subjects tend to focus on understanding a topic and linking it with others, rather than just memorizing formulas. Most of getting good at exams is then applying that understanding, along with time keeping, and a little bit of though as to which order to answer questions in.
My past experience
I have regularly tutored students in a variety of different subjects over the last 2/3 years. I’ve taken many people through A-levels, admission tests and interviews, with several students getting high scores, interview offers, and acceptance letters.
My Proudest Achievements
Getting a strong first in my Oxford degree is definitely up there.
