UK University Applications (Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, etc.)

From 35 € /h

Oxford and Cambridge are the UK’s most elite universities and, especially for a European student, far easier to reach with the proper support. This is what I am here to provide: help writing an ideal personal statement fit for a future Oxbridge offer holder, aid with UCAS, interview practice and advice on any possible question you could have. As a European Oxford student myself, I know the challenges and hardships of an Oxbridge application and aim to make the entire process easier for you. This will not only better your chances of securing an offer, but also make this already stressful time a bit less confusing.

About Me

Hi!
I‘m a 1st year PhD student at The Francis Crick Institute in London, previously having graduated with a bachelor's degree from the University of Oxford and an MSc from Imperial College London - both in biomedical sciences. My PhD research is focused on immunology and cancer, a field which I've also pursued in a range of labs in the UK and abroad.

I've been tutoring since high school, gradually moving from secondary school science and English lessons to tutoring undergraduate and postgraduate students, and English as a foreign language. For several years I've now also worked with an agency for academic applications tutoring - helping people of all age ranges successfully apply to the university or job of their dreams. Through this experience, I have developed a strong skillset in communicating complex ideas, adapting teaching strategies to each individual student, inciting motivation for science, and text editing anything from a personal statement to a master's dissertation.

I'm a German and English native speaker, but can communicate in Dutch if necessary!

I love learning and have always done my best to pass this on to any person I work with - by whichever strategy is necessary to get through to them.

Please don‘t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about me, my qualifications, my teaching style, or my availabilities!

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Both speaking classes and those not specifically focused on oral expression are individual, personalized, and planned according to each student's interests and goals. Speaking classes focus on fluency, pronunciation, and confidence in real-life situations, while other classes address academic or professional needs, such as exam preparation, debates, or presentations. In both cases, the focus is on supporting your progress with relevant content tailored to your personal goals.

To encourage and stimulate learning in the subjects taught, as well as their desire to learn more through various tools or techniques that facilitate their understanding.
Encouraging at all times the motivation and desire to continue learning.

Most people don't struggle with English because they don't know it, they struggle because they've stopped believing they can. I've been teaching English since 2018, and with a background in psychology, I don't just teach the language, I understand why you hesitate, why you doubt yourself, and what it actually takes to break through that.
Every student I work with gets a personalized method built around how they learn and where they want to go. Because you don't need another generic English class — you need someone who understands you and teaches you accordingly. Happy Learning!

As a student teacher, my way of working with primary school students is based on a fundamental idea: children learn best when they understand, participate, and feel capable.
My methodology is based on:
My tutoring sessions are based on Project-Based Learning (PBL) and active learning methodologies. This means that we don't just work with worksheets or repetitive exercises, but rather that the learning is meaningful and connected to their reality.
I work especially:
- Reading comprehension and text comprehension techniques
- Spanish Language
- Math
- English
I adapt each session to the child's pace, using visual, dynamic and practical materials that promote motivation and participation.

My name is Nelson, and I am a passionate English teacher from Tanzania with three years of experience helping students of all ages and levels achieve their language goals. I currently teach online from Russia, and I've worked with students in classrooms, one-on-one online, and even helped a student pass the IELTS exam to immigrate to Canada.

What makes my class different?

· Practical, real-world focus – We don't just study grammar rules. We practice speaking, listening, and responding naturally in everyday situations.
· Relaxed and supportive environment – Mistakes are welcome here! I believe learning happens best when you feel comfortable and encouraged.
· Personalized to YOU – Every student has different goals. Whether you need English for work, travel, exams, or just for fun, I adapt each lesson to fit your needs.
· Cultural insights – As someone who has lived in Tanzania, visited the USA and South Africa, and now lives in Russia, I bring a global perspective to our conversations.

What we can work on together:

· Everyday conversation and small talk
· Pronunciation and accent improvement
· Grammar made simple and clear
· Business English and professional communication
· Exam preparation (IELTS, TOEFL, school exams)
· Reading, writing, and listening comprehension

I speak English (C1), Swahili (native), and Russian (B1–B2) , so I truly understand the challenges of learning a new language. Let's work together to build your confidence and help you express yourself freely in English!
