The chance to meet with one of our expert tutors, to discuss your hopes for the future and propose some strategies to help you along the way. These might include opportunities for academic enrichment, extra-curricular activities or suggestions for wider reading. From here, you may choose supplementary support in Subject Tuition, to boost grades, and go on to more focused university application support, such as any of these that follow.
Our tutors can give students an insight into what stands out to admissions staff, what detail is best to include and what to place emphasis on. This can help to ensure that students are including the most relevant and important information.
Students may ask for our tutors to proof-read current drafts. This may lead to suggestions for improvement, including mention of wider reading for particular texts or articles, that our tutors believe will impress admissions staff. Students may also ask for help achieving the desired word count.
Our tutors will help students to be best prepared for what lies ahead. This involves understanding what the specific test will ask of them, and what specific skills it is testing them on, giving them an advantage when it comes to practicing and answering questions.
They will discuss how to tackle the questions that arise. This could include going through question by question in detail, to give a thorough understanding of what is required to do well. If relevant, this may also include focus on problem solving, verbal reasoning and critical thinking.
Our tutors will provide students with an understanding of what will be expected of them and what usually happens on the day. They will discuss potential questions, as well as suggesting why the interviewer(s) might ask a particular question, and what they are looking for the student to demonstrate. Better understanding what is being asked, and why, can best focus the response.
Tutors will often give an idea of key academic topics and concepts. This helps students to ensure thorough preparation and solid understanding in these areas.
The tutor will aim to conduct practice interview(s). This could include providing the student with challenging articles to read, or questions to answer, and reviewing these together, learning and understanding how best to go about these.
