Holly

I am an Oxford University alumnus with a Masters in Chemistry (graduated 2020). After graduation I worked in Investment Banking for 3 years.
I tutor students of all ages in Science and Maths, and I can provide support with university applications including Oxbridge.
I am very friendly, flexible and approachable.

Tutoring Experience

I have over 7 years of tutoring / teaching experience and have tutored both online and in person.
Throughout this time, I have also mentored students applying to Oxbridge and medicine.

Tutoring Approach

I like to link my sessions to the student's classes in school, particularly focusing on what the student has found difficult. I will typically go through these topics using my own techniques/approach to cement the student's knowledge and improve their confidence. I will often work through exam questions as knowledge application is often where students struggle the most. I can set homework (typically exam questions) if the student/parent wishes, but I will otherwise test the student’s ability throughout sessions to check the topic has been understood before moving on.
I like to use a visual approach with diagrams to explain concepts. I encourage questions and ask questions myself to consolidate learning.
