About Me

Hi! My name is Joseph and I am going into my third year studying biological Natural Sciences at the University of Cambridge. I will specialise in Pathology, but have taken physiology, neurobiology and chemistry at degree level too. I understand how exhausting the Oxbridge application process can be, and how challenging it is to balance this with preparation for exams too. I want to assure you that your success is my priority and I am happy to help in any way that I can. Whether you need help with your personal statement, admissions exams, interviews or with your end of year exams I am determined to help you succeed. I hope that I can help you be excited about applying to University too – researching universities and writing applications feels daunting but as someone who is having a great time at university currently, I know that the end result is worth it. I do a lot of theatre at university which requires a lot of time management skills to balance alongside a demanding degree, but I do this because I understand the importance of finding joy outside of academic work. In my lessons I will help you succeed but I will encourage this in a healthy and productive way.

My teaching style

My teaching style can be relaxed or more rigid depending on the needs of the candidate. I am happy to drill information until it sticks, or equally have a more relaxed chat about a student’s knowledge gap and focus on developing study techniques that grant success. I want to emphasise that these sessions are for you and while I can formulate a strict lesson plan, I will put the candidate’s needs first and so any particular challenges will be tackled immediately.

My past experience

I have led A level chemistry workshops, done 1:1 A Level biology tutoring as well as 1:1 university application tutoring which involves giving detailed personal statement feedback and advice for admissions exam studies.

My Proudest Achievements

I am most proud of the work-life balance I have managed to cultivate. I am academic and so I complete assignments to my best ability however I don’t let this interfere with having a social life. I have found that having these trait has improved my capacity to succeed because my mental health is never at the expense of my grades (or vice versa).
