Personal Statement for UK Universities: Stand out and make your application count with the help of an Oxford educated tutor.

The key to getting noticed and accepted by UK universities is the 4000 characters long personal statement, which is your one chance to stand out from all the other candidates. This is not a lot of space, but I am here to help you make the most of this piece of writing to present yourself as genuinely and effectively as possible. Having myself benefited from a similar assistance, I have been accepted to the University of Oxford.
This can take form of regular classes in which we draft and revise the text or a single session with feedback, depending on your preferences.

About Me

Hi!

I am Vendy and I am originally Czech, but have lived in the UK for the past four years and have recently moved to Sweden. Having completed my degree in Mathematics and Statistics at Oxford, I now feel keen to help other students with their studies.
I have experience tutoring Mathematics and English at levels from primary school up to pre-university level. Besides being able to help with tutoring, exam preparation, or homework, I can also assist in the UK university application process by revising personal statements.
In my free time, I love being active outdoors - primarily running and doing yoga, cooking, and baking, or reading a good book with a cup of coffee. And I really enjoy helping students achieve their full potential, which is why I am offering my tutoring skills. Please reach out to me if you have any questions at all!

I am always flexible and happy to adjust according to your objectives. Please get in touch if you think there is anything I can help with so we can find a good way to do so!

Help with writing an effective and operational CV and cover letter
Hello, my name is Audrey and I propose to help you in preparing the most operational and efficient cover letter and / or CV possible for you! Are you facing the blank page syndrome, are you hesitating about the wording, don't know how to order your remarks? You ask yourself the eternal questions: how to sell myself in the fairest and most efficient way possible? Do you want to get out of the box, be original, bring out your personality, to distinguish yourself from the recruiter, but do you worry about not being conventional enough? Have you written hundreds of cover letters and resumes, but you're not getting the responses you're hoping for? Are you having trouble organizing your CV because you have too much or not enough experience to highlight? Your experiences do not correspond to the position for which you are applying, because you are retraining and you do not know how to highlight your past experiences? I help you answer all these questions! I am a master's student in international relations and my last five years have been marked by numerous interviews and the sending of multiple applications in order to obtain a job, an internship, a new opportunity, a master's degree, etc. Thanks to my CV and my cover letter, I managed to enter one of the most selective training courses in France in my field. I have also obtained internships or been called back by very large French companies and ministries (in particular the embassies with which I have accumulated 3 internships with my CV and a solid cover letter as my only ally). On the strength of these experiences and the expectations of recruiters, I have helped many friends by correcting their cover letter, their CV and by advising them. All of different profiles with heterogeneous files they achieved their goal. In reality, what counts is not so much what is in the letter or in the CV as in the way of presenting the elements. So why won't I help you in turn? With pleasure!
