Dylan

Oxford University - MMathPhys

I specialise in tutoring for the MAT, drawing on my first-class Master's degree in Mathematical and Theoretical Physics from New College, Oxford (2018). With experience in both online and classroom teaching, I guide students through the unique challenges of the MAT, ensuring they develop problem-solving skills tailored to this demanding university entrance test.

Personally Interviewed

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge. They have extensive tutoring experience with a track record of success, helping students achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Experience

I have extensive experience preparing students for university entrance exams, including the MAT, STEP, and PAT. As a mentor for Oxford International College’s summer programme (2019-2020), I supported students targeting elite universities. Additionally, I taught A-level and IB Physics part-time at an independent school in Oxford, focusing on entrance tests and Olympiad preparation.

Tutoring Approach

My tutoring approach for the MAT emphasises rigorous practice with worked examples and exercises that mirror the test's unique style. I focus on breaking down complex problems, addressing misconceptions in real time, and guiding students to navigate challenging questions effectively. This method builds both confidence and the analytical skills essential for success in the MAT.

Testimonials

"The sessions I had with Dylan really helped me refine and perfect my personal statement down to the last detail. The MAT sessions we had were also really useful, as it introduced me to new problem-solving techniques"

Jai, Oxford International College student

"...during our sessions he always provided me an opportunity to solve the problem myself, however whenever I failed to solve it myself, he would not give out the solution straight away, instead he would try to direct me to the right method. It allowed me to find a solution on my own. If I was unable to find a solution, he would explain in a way that made everything seem simple"
