Giving students intensive university admissions support from day one with 1-to-1 sessions with former Oxford tutor and interviewer. Students can enter the interview with confidence and knowledge.

Academic excellence

Build a deep understanding of your subject before the interview to improve performance and answer questions like a current student. Develop areas of deep understanding like an Oxbridge student would.

Tailored, bespoke support

Every package is built specifically to the student’s choice of subject and academic needs, including work experience support, EPQ advice, and admissions test preparation.

Experience and expertise to help students succeed

I have taught Medicine and Medical Sciences for over 10 years: at Imperial College London; and at both Trinity and Oriel Colleges at the University of Oxford.

I have also sat on the admissions and interview panels for both Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at Oxford, so I know what admissions tutors are looking for.

I hold a degree in Medicine from Oxford and PhD from Imperial College London, and graduated top of my college at Oxford in Medical Sciences.

Dr Tranter takes the lead and delivers all teaching for:

  • Medicine

  • Biomedical Sciences

  • Dentistry

  • Veterinary Medicine

  • Biological Sciences/Biochemistry

  • Natural Sciences (Biological)

For all other subjects, Dr Tranter will use his vast experience to oversee students in their applications, but draws on his Oxbridge connections to ensure students receive subject-specific high-quality 1-to-1 Oxbridge-style tutorials.

We only use current or former Oxbridge tutors and interviewers. Unlike others, we will never use students with no knowledge of admissions other than their own. All tutors are DBS checked and receive safeguarding training.

Whether it's developing areas of their own specialist knowledge, honing critical thinking skills, or preparing for university admissions, my comprehensive approach ensures that each student receives the support they need to succeed. With a focus on academic rigour, critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, and personal growth, I strive to inspire and empower the next generation of scholars, scientists and doctors.

I understand the unique challenges students face as they navigate their final years of schooling. As a former Oxford lecturer and tutor I am dedicated to nurturing their potential and fostering a deep love for learning. Through my bespoke tutorial packages, students receive individualised attention and guidance, allowing them to unlock their full academic prowess.

“Working with Matthew was an invaluable experience as I prepared for my medical school interviews. His guidance and expertise not only equipped me with the necessary skills but also boosted my confidence. I have subsequently received an unconditional offer. I highly recommend his services to anyone seeking to excel in their medical school interviews.”

Thanks to Matthew’s guidance, I got two offers for Medicine. From the get-go, starting with writing my personal statement, he really helped me focus on what med schools were looking for and his detailed advice made me send off an application that I was confident in. His guidance on which unis to apply to, depending on my UCAT score and other qualifications, resulted in me securing 4/4 interviews. During the nerve-wracking interview process, Matthew’s constant support encouraged me to grow not only in confidence, but also in knowledge surrounding many different topics in medicine. His expertise in the field of ethics helped me ace the hard ethical questions in my interviews, and our work in structuring my answers greatly improved my communication and clarity. I felt ready for my interviews, having covered all the necessary areas with Matthew. I really felt supported throughout the whole process and couldn’t have done it without his guidance. The one-on-one, meticulous work we did had a huge impact on the outcome of my application. 

“I have had the pleasure of being taught by Matthew during the first 3 years of Medical school. His constant support and excellent teaching methods helped me understand and implement knowledge that I still use to this day in my penultimate year. The patience and willingness to repeatedly revisit difficult topics displayed by Matthew was vital in instilling the perseverance and dedication required through my medical journey thus far.

From the way I was taught by Matthew as well as his excellent knowledge in the medical field, I would not be where I am today without his support and willingness to help me. Having his support and constant encouragement has been vital in instilling the passion and excitement in studying and pursuing a career as a medical professional.”

”My daughter is currently in Y13 and has received two Medicine offers from universities she loves thanks to Matthew. He was extremely helpful from the very beginning of the process; explaining how the Medicine application works, when to start and how to practise for the UCAT test, how to choose the uni that suits you the best, and most importantly, how to prepare for the interviews. He gave my daughter the confidence and the knowledge she needed.”

“You are the greatest teacher I have ever met in my education journey, not only widening my knowledge but have also changed the way I think about biology”

“Matthew tutored two of my daughters for years, instilling in them an appreciation for hard work and a deep understanding of exam technique. Matthew helped them both […], providing them with incredible comprehension that went beyond their school standards. They learnt great studying methods that he tailored to each of them individually, which helped them to build a strong foundation of how to study and succeed, not only during university, but also in their current careers. I could not recommend Matthew’s services more. We are extremely appreciative of the skills he helped develop and the guidance and teaching he has provided over the years.”
