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!

Education

Master of Mathematics, University of Oxford, United Kingdom (graduated 2020 with a first class degree)
Was the best performing candidate in 2019 exams (Bachelor's)
Previously achieved 45 points in the IBDP (at a high school in Prague)

Experience / Qualifications

- Three years tutoring experience for a private tutoring company
- Have worked with students aged 6-19 years old
- Completed IB Diploma Programme with 45 points (of 45; top 0.2% of candidates worldwide)
Get more comfortable using English in everyday or classroom scenarios in a fun way! I am an experienced, Oxford-educated tutor and love helping my students push their boundaries, develop their skills or imrpove results. Depending on your preferences and objectives, we can focus on any part of the language - from managing everyday situations through homework assisstance to advanced grammar. We can aim towards a language exam or just meet for a regular chat to keep your language skills polished. I can help proofreading texts before submission or even assisst with University applications to the United Kingdom.
Maths is amazing, challenging and intriguing. I have studied the subject at the university of Oxford for four years and am now happy to help you understand the subject better and improve your mathematical skills. Regardless of which level you are studying at, I am confident that together we can make progress to help you understand your Maths better and to feel confident and prepared for your exams. I like to meet my students on a regular basis so that we can work in a continuous and structured way towards the students' goals. Depending on your preference, we can go through standard classwork, explore concepts beyond the curriculum, work on exam technique or combine the above to get you where you want to be. 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!

PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT IN HIS JOB SEARCH / CAREER TRANSITION, ESPECIALLY DURING COVID19
Adapted to each case and need, the objective is support in accessing a job, from the search for departure to the signing of the contract: - After the search and selection of relevant advertisements, establish and illustrate your transversal skills profile then create an attractive CV and write a striking cover letter highlighting your professional background - stand out in the preparation of their interviews, from oral presentation to expression through appropriate body language. Interview simulation & video analysis filmed if necessary. - Identify your values, promote your professional project / your assets and strengths but also work on areas for improvement in order to find new momentum in your career. Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish. Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. (study 2020) PLACES : - Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm).

Personal statement for UCAS and graduate school application
I am an admissions consultant specialising in guiding students to apply to universities or graduate schools in the US and the UK. Most of my clients are third or fourth-year undergraduates or professionals with a few years of work experience applying to graduate schools. My teaching philosophy is to be a mentor, friend, and sometimes emotional support counsellor for my clients. The admissions process can be daunting, especially for students with little or no experience writing personal statements and academic essays. I guide my students on a journey of self-discovery as they explore what they want to study and why. When I am working with a student on crafting their personal statement, I will first ask my student to brainstorm ideas. We will discuss what to keep and what to delete when we are structuring the essay. I will then guide them on using the STAR method to give examples and details to demonstrate their skill or experience. The final stage is polishing the essay so it reads well and still retains the student's voice. I also coach secondary school and undergraduate students how to write academic essays. They need to first become familiar with the materials by reading extensively and writing summaries and critiques. I will then guide them on how to come up with an argument and how to structure the essay. Finally, we will add supporting details and examples to demonstrate the main points.

Maximize your chances of being hired through simple and powerful techniques
Support in the areas of hiring: - Writing and presentation of a hard-hitting CV both in form and content (how to arouse the interest of the reader and how to be invited to a job interview). -Writing of a motivation letter (response to a job offer or spontaneous application). - Preparation and repetition of a job interview (key questions ... to say and not to say) - Techniques to optimize verbal and non-verbal communication Together we identify the relevant elements that guarantee you a CV that attracts attention and guarantees that you will be invited to a job interview. During the rehearsal of a job interview, we prepare the answers to give, the aspects not to say. I work on both the verbal and the nonverbal aspects. If desired, a video can be recorded and analyzed together.

Private coaching for CV help and spring week finance internship applications
I have recently been accepted into JP Morgan's spring week internship which required extensive preparation. I can give a helping hand through private coaching on CV writing, cover letters, networking, online interview prep, basic finance and macroeconomic knowledge. I have also been a part of a stock pitch competition where my stock got chosen and so I can offer insights in how to pitch, confidence and how to keep on top of research. Being a woman in a predominately male field can be daunting so I can also help build confidence around this as well! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask!

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!
