Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Oxbridge Applications
A Cambridge Natural Sciences (Biological) graduate with five A*s at A-level, Toby is calm, patient and enthusiastic, and becomes sharply exam-focused as tests approach.
Toby read Natural Sciences (Biological) at the University of Cambridge, covering disciplines from ecology to biochemistry before specialising in physiology, development and neuroscience. At Tonbridge School and MPW he achieved five A*s at A-level in Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Religious Studies, with a 96.1% average at A2. He went on to music college to pursue guitar performance.
Toby has more than 350 hours of tutoring experience, teaching Biology up to A-level and Oxbridge interview extension, Chemistry to A-level and Physics to GCSE. At Tonbridge he took part in Science for Schools, running practicals and demonstrations for primary school children, and he has spent five years helping run holiday courses for children aged 3 to 16 with Recre8.
Toby teaches with the view that learning is worthwhile in itself, sharing his enthusiasm for fascinating topics and helping students find areas that resonate with them, which pays off in Oxbridge interviews. As exams approach he turns exam-focused, using past papers and mark schemes to show where the marks lie, and helps students build efficient revision methods, including colour-coded, consistently laid-out notes.
