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 specialise in TSA preparation, leveraging nearly a year of tutoring experience and over 70 hours of focused guidance. My sessions have supported students in mastering TSA problem-solving, critical thinking techniques, and essay writing. I’ve worked closely with several long-term students, helping them achieve Oxbridge admission through targeted TSA practice and mock interview feedback.

My background in eloquence competitions and drama enhances my ability to refine students’ interview delivery, critical thinking, and body language. Additionally, I’ve helped around 20 students with TSA/TMUA preparation, personal statements, and interview readiness, tailoring advice to meet the unique demands of Oxbridge applications.

Tutoring Approach

I strive to demystify the TSA process and Oxbridge admissions. My sessions combine structured TSA practice with dynamic explanations, using tools like Zoom and OneNote for visual aids and real-time problem-solving. I focus on building students’ confidence and critical thinking skills, ensuring they feel prepared and relaxed for their exams and interviews, while pushing them to excel.

Testimonials

"What I like from your tutoring is the fact you try to make sure that I’ve understood everything, even if I am lacking some knowledge, you try to explain a concept in a way I can understand it. You also like to go to a higher depth than I am taught in at school, which is closer to how Economics is at University"
