Edward

Cambridge University - MEng Engineering

Hello, I'm Edward, a third-year undergraduate at the University of Cambridge, studying Engineering. I firmly advocate for understanding and building knowledge from first principles, especially in STEM subjects, and this forms the cornerstone of my approach with my tutees. Additionally, I attained 4 A*s in Maths, Further Maths, Physics, and Chemistry at A-Level in 2021 and achieved grade 9s in these subjects at GCSE in 2019. I specialize in ESAT admissions and Engineering admissions for Oxbridge.

Personally Interviewed

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge. They have extensive tutoring experience with a track record of success, helping students achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Experience

I have experience tutoring students for Oxbridge and Imperial applications. Successfully applied to Cambridge and Imperial for (Aeronautical) Engineering. I am very familiar with these competitive application processes and how to perform best in both the admissions assessments and interviews. I am experienced planning and teaching weekly science lessons to talented Year 9+ students from local state schools as part of a volunteering program.

Tutoring Approach

My recent experience of sitting exams enables me to closely relate to students and understand their unique challenges. Having gone through the rigorous process myself, I am able to empathise with the pressures they face and provide valuable, personalised guidance. Drawing on the study techniques and strategies that proved successful for me, I can offer tailored support, helping students to manage their workload efficiently and approach their revision in a structured and effective way. Whether it's refining problem-solving skills or tackling difficult subject areas, I aim to equip students with the tools they need to succeed academically.

By staying up-to-date with curriculum changes and exam board requirements, I ensure that the information I provide is accurate and relevant to the current educational landscape. I can help students navigate potential challenges, whether they stem from recent adjustments in the syllabus or common stumbling blocks in difficult subjects. Through fostering engagement and using interactive methods, I create a learning environment where students can feel confident in grasping complex concepts and applying them strategically in their exams. My relatability, recent exam experience, and insights into effective study habits combine to make me an approachable and effective tutor who is fully committed to helping students reach their full potential.
