My Experience
Private Tutoring: I have tutored students International Baccalaureate Diploma English Literature and History. I also have experience teaching English, Chinese and History based on the IB Middle Years Programme Syllabus. As a former competitive debater, I have taught debate classes. Having attained A* grades in both GCSE and A-level Chinese, I am familiar with the examination format and criteria.
University Admissions: I have a lot of experience helping sixth-formers with Oxbridge admissions. I have given admissions talks at several international schools in Asia, helped edit drafts of Personal Statements and the SAQ (for Cambridge), and given mock interview training. A high proportion of the students I have helped have successfully received offers to study Law at either Oxford or Cambridge and are current students there.
I worked at the Cambridge Law Faculty Open Day, worked as a Peterhouse Student Ambassador for 2 years and was a Student Helper at the Peterhouse Open Day so I have in-depth insight into the admissions process.
As I had originally planned to apply to US universities and most students from my secondary school attend US universities, I have plenty of knowledge about the US admissions process, including admissions interviews. I will utilize my personal network to gain insight into each specific university’s admissions process. I was a student at Stanford University's Education Programme for Gifted Youth and its Online High School. I also attended summer school at Stanford for 2 years.
Theatre: I taught drama, musical theatre and communication skills to children ages 1-12 full-time in August 2015 and July 2016. I have also taught drama and English classes at secondary schools in Asia as part of the University of Cambridge Asia Theatre Tour in September 2017.
