TSA Tutors

Each course of tutoring begins with an initial assessment, allowing your TSA tutor to identify your strengths and target areas for improvement. Based on this, we create a tailored study plan, ensuring that your preparation is focused and strategic. 

Section 1 of the TSA tests critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Our TSA tutors guide you through each type of question, covering logical reasoning, critical thinking, and data analysis. With timed practice and step-by-step answer guides, you’ll learn how to efficiently navigate this section.

The essay in Section 2 is a critical component for PPE applicants. It allows you to showcase your ability to construct coherent, persuasive arguments. Our tutors teach you how to structure your responses, select and defend your arguments, and refine your writing style. You’ll practice with sample prompts and receive detailed feedback to sharpen your skills.

All our TSA tutors are Oxbridge graduates with extensive experience of teaching the TSA and a proven track record of Oxford admissions success.

All of our TSA tutoring packages come with access to our exclusive library of full mock tests, for the highest level of realistic practice and preparation.

Feedback is key. After each lesson, tutors review your progress, tracking it against TSA benchmarks. This continual assessment allows us to refine your study plan as you advance, focusing on areas that need extra attention.

The TSA (Thinking Skills Assessment) is a test required for certain courses at the University of Oxford including PPE and Economics and Management. It assesses critical thinking, problem-solving, and the ability to communicate ideas effectively under timed conditions.

Our TSA tutors draw on their years of experience to offer insider advice and guidance on answering both sections of the TSA. Tutors can teach efficient approaches to time management, logical reasoning, and essay structuring, all aimed at maximising your score.

It’s generally best to start preparing at least a few months before the test date. This allows ample time to familiarise yourself with the question types, practise key skills, and build confidence. Starting early also helps reduce test-day anxiety by ensuring you’re thoroughly prepared.

We have three different TSA tutoring packages to choose from: 4, 6, or 12 hours. All tutoring is taught 1-1 with a highly experienced Oxbridge-graduate tutor, and comes with access to our exclusive library of full-length mock TSA tests.

Yes! We use the same virtual learning environment as top universities like Oxford so you can be sure the remote learning will be effective and engaging.

Absolutely. If you need targeted support for either the multiple-choice or essay section, our tutors will focus on that area. They’ll help you develop the skills and strategies you need to perform well on whichever part you’d like to improve.

Practising with past papers familiarises you with the test format and types of questions you’ll encounter. Our tutors use past papers to provide realistic practice and refine your timing, accuracy, and overall performance.

While it’s possible to prepare independently, many students find that tutoring significantly boosts their performance. Our students improve their Oxbridge admissions test scores by an average of 20% after just 4 hours of tutoring.
