Alexandra

Harvard and Cambridge law graduate who has helped 100+ students perfect their university applications. Also offering tuition in IB/A-level/GCSE English, Law, Politics, History, and SAT subjects.

I will be graduating from Harvard University with an MSc in Bioethics in May 2023. Prior to this, I earned a BA in Law from the University of Cambridge. I also completed the IB Diploma, graduating Valedictorian of my class and achieving 43 points (with 7s in all my classes except Math SL).

I have extensive experience guiding students through both UK and US university admissions. Having been personally admitted to Harvard, Cambridge, Columbia, Berkeley, Dartmouth, UCLA, and NYU, I am deeply familiar with international application processes. I have worked with nearly 100 students, focusing mainly on helping them perfect their personal statements. I also have experience conducting mock interviews. My approach revolves around providing as much feedback as possible, in order to pinpoint both strengths and areas of growth. For example, after each mock interview I provide a detailed summary of the questions, the student's answers, and my suggestions for how to level-up these answers.

I achieved a 1570 on the SAT, and have worked with many students to improve their scores for the English part especially.

I have also tutored several IB Diploma students on English, History, and Economics. I aim to ascertain the student's specific needs before formulating further sessions. For example, many students prefer an exam-centric approach. For these types of students, I focus on exam strategy and creating essay plans. Finally, I have worked with students studying GCSE Language and Literature.
