Application Mentoring for Elite UK University Admissions

About Us

Oxford and Cambridge Tutoring is run entirely by graduates and finalists from the Universities of Cambridge and Oxford, all of whom who have significant experience tutoring both privately and for other companies. What makes us different is that there is no middle man; rather than going through layers of bureaucracy, we link you directly to an Oxbridge tutor because we ourselves are. In doing so, we are able to offer the most competitive pricing of any elite tutoring company while providing the exact same service - we would know, because we worked at these companies previously. Moreover, this allows us to be transparent and upfront about pricing.

From start to finish, we offer an entirely individualised, 1-to-1 programme. Prospective students will be paired with their corresponding subject tutor, who will then help them with the Oxbridge application process - whether that be as part of a comprehensive curation and refinement plan, or as a one-off to brush-up in a particular area. Our sessions cover any of the following, and more; course deliberation, reading lists and seminar walk-throughs, personal statement construction, help with admissions tests, selection of written work examples, and mock interviews.

As well as Oxford and Cambridge, all our tutors are experienced in aiding students applying to and attaining offers for other elite UK universites; such as Imperial, UCL, LSE, St Andrews, Edinburgh, KCL, Durham, and Warwick.

Who are your tutors?

All of our tutors are Oxford and Cambridge graduates and finalists - meaning they have significant experience and understanding of the Oxbridge admissions process and what it takes to get in. As far as we are aware, we offer the cheapest sessions of any site with these minimum qualifications. Qualifications which we deem necessary to ensure our tutors are sufficiently skilled and knowledgeable to provide the best service.

Why do you only hire Oxbridge graduates and finalists?

Quite simply, they are simply best-equipped to advise on and help prospective candidates through the application process. They have the advantage of having spent years working closely with Oxbridge academics and professors and more generally come to understand the demands of these institutions. Moreover, they have greater expertise in terms of subject knowledge, curricula, and on what constitutes effective tutoring.

How long after being put in touch with my subject tutor will I have to wait to hear back?

After confirmation of sessions, you will be put in touch with your specific subject tutor and can expect to hear back within 72 hours - though most of our tutors respond far quicker than that. With them, you will be able to arrange and book in dates for online sessions.

Can I request a 5 or 10 session plan that only focuses on interview preparation?

Of course you can. Our plans are entirely customisable to our client's needs; you will be put in touch with your subject tutor, who will work out an appropriate course of action for you based on your strengths and weaknesses - as well as any areas you state you would most like to work on.

Is it possible to get interview preparation with two different tutors?

Yes, for any client that books four or more sessions. This way, students can work with a lead tutor in determining areas that need work as well as tracking progress over multiple sessions - before gaining experience with a different tutor who will provide an alternative approach and line of questioning to that already experienced with the lead tutor.

I want to get in touch with someone directly. How do I that?

The Contact Us button is an incredibly efficient way to get in touch with us. However, if you require an urgent response then it is possible to get in touch with Keon or Matthew directly via the following:
Keon: +44 7984639101 or keonzm@gmail.com
Matthew: +44 7446431588 or mdcormack@icloud.com

You will only be put in touch with subject specific tutors after the initial number of desired sessions has been confirmed.
