4About Me
I am a Cambridge Mathematics student, who achieved all A*s in my A-levels in Maths, Further maths, Physics and Economics. To get into Cambridge, I also had to sit the maths STEP 2 and 3 papers, for which I achieved top grades S,1 respectively. I can teach new maths and further maths content using any exam board syllabus, through virtual one-to-one sessions. As someone who very recently went through the process of applying successfully to Oxbridge for a STEM subject, I can give helpful advice on the Oxbridge admissions process that can massively help you improve your application! I understand what it feels like to come from a school where perhaps going to Oxbridge isn’t a common route for students, and that can feel quite isolating during the application process, which is why I am eager to give advice to prospective applicants and de-myth any concerns.
My teaching style
I believe in talking through problems as you solve them, and it is something that I do with my students every session to encourage articulation of their thought processes. I try to be really conversational in my teaching style, as that is surprisingly what Oxbridge interviews feel like, academically rigorous but with a personable touch.
My past experience
2 years private maths tutoring experience.

Achieving S,1 in the STEP papers and getting into Cambridge! Also passing my Diploma for piano performance with distinction at the age of 15.
