About Esme
I've just finished the second year of my degree so my own admissions cycle is fresh in my mind and preparing for maths exams is something I still do all the time! I've amassed a lot of resources and practice questions for the MAT and interviews and I know what tutors are looking for in prospective applicants. For the past 4 years, I've done informal maths tutoring digitally and in person, ranging from GCSE to University admissions. I've also run a lot of practice interviews for Oxford applicants. Whatever the level, I focus on assessing and building a student's understanding of the content rather than making them memorise it.

I focus primarily on MAT preparation since this is the most important part of an application for Oxford/Imperial maths. In a session, rather than just going through past paper solutions with students, I'll offer up similar follow-up questions so that we can fully fool-proof their understanding of the topic the question is covering. Sessions are at least an hour, typically an hour and a half (but I'm flexible and take into account that students already have a stressful A level workload). I offer an initial 45min long trial session for free so you can see if my teaching will help you. We'll make a plan that covers everything on the MAT syllabus and all of the most common question formats that are likely to come up. I also like to teach some concepts that are not covered at A level but often motivate questions on the MAT (like number theory, combinatorics, graph drawing skills and more). Then as we get closer to the exam date, I put more emphasis on timed practice and exam technique. For personal statements, I can offer guidance on structuring and writing as well as ideas for what "super-curriculars" you can complete (in any given timeframe) to look impressive and show passion for the subject but also improve your problem solving. Then, usually only after a student has sat the MAT, we will start interview preparation. I'll run plenty of real-time practice interviews and offer feedback. My aim is to coach the student in explaining their thought process in a way that is clear to the tutors and to give them practice solving problems under pressure.

Perfect! Esme is great at giving you control over what you do in each session, and what you plan to do in future sessions, she has been great at checking my knowledge throughout, but also it has been a great personal experience, as each session feels personal as well as educational
