UK University Admissions Tutoring (Personal Statement, Admissions Test and Interview)
From 80 C$ /h
Over the past 3 years, I have supported dozens of students through the UK university admissions process, helping them secure offers from Oxbridge as well as top Russell Group universities. This includes help drafting the Personal Statement, as well as preparing for interviews. In particular, I specialise in admissions to Law, PPE, Politics, History (as well as joint schools), and Economics admissions, including tutoring for the LNAT and/or TARA. As a law student at the University of Oxford, I have gone through the admissions process myself and thus understand the daunting task of submitting applications while staying on top of school work. In particular, I understand the additional challenges faced by international students, and would welcome the opportunity to guide you through these!

I have 4 years of experience helping make complex students accessible to IB students (at both Diploma and MYP level). I graduated with a 42/45 achieving top marks in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry before going on to study at the University of Oxford. My approach is deeply personalised, focused on fostering an open relationship with students to build a clear understanding of their strengths and weaknesses. This entails targeted sessions tailored to suit each student's unique learning style, ensuring they are confident as they tackle all aspects of the IB curriculum. Crucially, I focus on helping students understand what a question is asking and why it is doing so in a particular way, before developing clear strategies to resolve the most challenging problems.
As a Law student at the University of Oxford, I have ample experience writing and editing essays. I completed the MYP and IB Diploma in 2020 and 2022 respectively, achieving full-marks in all of my written pieces of work. Since then, I have helped a number of students develop their research questions, plan their essays, structure their answers, and edit their finals drafts. I focus on helping students understand key learning objectives, while master analytical and essay-writing skills; I provide thorough, weekly feedback and am able to support students through the substantive research process.
