Alexander - Oxford

MChem in Chemistry - University of Oxford

Hi! I’m Alex, and I just graduated from Oxford with a Masters Degree in Chemistry, achieving First Class Honours. I was previously educated at a school with a long-standing tradition of Oxbridge applications, and multiple successful candidates each year. Having that network of alumni gave me a multifaceted insight into the Oxbridge admissions process from start to finish. When I began my studies in Oxford, I offered informal mentorship and mock interviews to my younger schoolmates. The Chemistry applicants I had worked with more closely both managed to secure offers and are now pursuing their dreams at Oxford!

Apart from that, I worked as a homework grader and teaching assistant for a US-based online platform . My experience has inspired me to teach in a way that encourages the student to arrive at the answer on their own, rather than being told what it is. This is achieved through a student-specific approach, positive reinforcement of achievements, making useful connections between topics, and creating an atmosphere in which students are comfortable exploring what they don’t know.

If you have any questions about my experience, please feel free to contact me at support@doxa.co.uk
