Testimonials
Daisy, Oxford PPE offer holder, applied at 16 years old
Peter supported me through every step of the application process, from helping me craft my personal statement to preparing for the TSA and interviews. As someone applying for Oxford PPE in my junior year, I am really grateful for his professional advice and encouragement that helped me build the confidence to give it my all this year.
Working on my personal statement with Peter was both inspiring and rewarding, as he guided me to think more deeply about what I'd learned and pushed me to go beyond the surface. On the TSA writing task, Peter helped me a lot with structuring my arguments, which was key to helping me express my ideas clearly and finish on time. Peter pushes you with challenging questions, but he's always patient and guides you toward finding your own answers. This feels a lot like the real Oxbridge interviews. Because of that, I was able to apply what we practiced together to the actual questions I faced.
I’m happy to share that I’ve been accepted to the University of Oxford, and I honestly can’t thank Peter enough. It’s fair to say that without his support, I wouldn’t have decided to apply this year or made it through so smoothly. I truly recommend Peter to anyone looking for a supportive and thoughtful tutor in the Oxbridge application process.
Peter helped me overcome my reliance on textbook answers by encouraging me to think on the spot through challenging questions. This approach really helped me become accustomed to the Oxbridge style of interviewing, and I applied these skills in interviews at other universities as well. The Romanian educational system is very rigid and, despite having participated in math contests, I felt quite uncomfortable with economic modeling questions. When the interview came, Peter’s guidance enabled me to answer these questions with ease and effectively use the interviewer’s insights.
Overall, I greatly enjoyed our discussions and received excellent advice. I wholeheartedly recommend Peter for any Oxbridge aspirant or anyone seeking to improve their academic performance!

Ella, Oxford PPE student
Working with Peter over my Oxford application process was an incredible experience. I applied for Philosophy, Politics and Economics and my school arranged for Peter to tutor me throughout the process for which I am eternally grateful! Peter’s support with both the TSA entrance exam and the interview not only helped with my understanding but also greatly increased my confidence in my own ability. The process can seem incredibly daunting; however, Peter broke down each aspect and provided invaluable advice over my interview preparation sessions. I initially struggled to grasp some of the concepts in the TSA, however Peter’s tailored sessions simplified the exam and cleared up any issues I’d had previously. Over my interview sessions with Peter, we covered all three of the subjects in great detail. He challenged my thinking in the same way the Oxford tutors did during my interview (and currently in my tutorials at Oxford!) by delving deeper into questions and exploring avenues that I would never have previously considered. Peter is incredibly patient and extremely intelligent - I owe him a great deal. I was accepted onto my course at Oxford and am really enjoying my degree! I would highly recommend Peter as a tutor to anyone looking to find success with their Oxford application.
