About YI
I graduated from Trinity College, the University of Cambridge, where I received a BA and MA degree in Natural Science (NatSci). For AS and A Level, I achieved 5 A*s in mathematics, further mathematics, physics, chemistry and Chinese, and A grade in AS economics. For Physics, I have achieved full UMS marks for all written papers. In 2011, I was the 32nd in British Mathematics Olympiad in UK. In addition, I received gold certificates in Senior Maths Challenges in both 2010 and 2011. Furthermore, I received the silver certificate in British Physics Olympiad in 2010.

My approach is more focused on the exam-based training and University Interviews. By digging into the reason why each question was asked and then reveal the core knowledge beside each question, I believe this approach will give my tutees the best understanding of the knowledge and will help my tutees be able to 'communicate' with examiners by doing a paper. By utilising this approach into my daily study, I have completed my A-levels in 2011 (ranked Top 1st) and successfully enrolled in Trinity College, Cambridge. I owe my success to this approach and want to share that with all my tutees.
I have been tutoring through First Tutor since 2015 with all five-star reviews. One of my 2024/2025 student achieved full UMS for 8 out of 9 papers she did for her AS*. Within the past 8 Years, I have helped 15 students receive offers from Oxbridge in total, within which two are Welsh students and one of them got into Trinity College Cambridge in 2017. In January 2026, two of my students received offers from Cambridge to study NatSci in Pembroke College and Newnham College. Experienced with teaching Dyslexic students. One of my students took a gap year and became my full-time student, he finished A Level Physics with me within one year and received conditional offer from Oxford to read Chemistry.

Yi Xu has been tutoring our son for a few months now. Our son has found it easy to communicate and engage with Yi. She is very knowledgeable and an excellent tutor.
Yi is a wonderful tutor! She helped Renee with her Cambridge interview prep and was so professional and caring! Renee has learned so much from her. Would recommend Yi to anyone who needs help with Math, Physics or Oxbridge preparation!
