Interview Preparation for Schools

Interviews are an integral part of a competitive application. We work closely with schools to provide high quality interview preparation and realistic mock interviews for Oxbridge and other university applicants.

  • Our team of experts includes ex-University Admissions Officers, experienced teachers and Oxbridge graduates who have experienced the interview process first hand

  • Our Mock Interview sessions last 45 minutes, comprising 30 minutes of interview followed by 15 minutes of discussion and feedback

  • Students then receive a detailed written report after the day with advice and guidance on how to improve

  • We also provide additional data to schools on student performance after each round of mock interviews, which helps teachers to provide accurate, ongoing support to students in the areas they need it most as they continue to prepare for their interviews

  • Our bespoke support can take place both in-school and online or alternatively, schools can choose to send students to our Mock Interview Days at a significantly reduced rate

Mock Interview Days

Our Mock Interview Day is our most popular course and comprehensively covers all aspects of mock interview technique, as well as giving students the opportunity to watch live interview demonstrations and hear from the experts.

Students will develop their critical thinking and analytical skills during our interactive mock interview demonstration and can choose to sit two, four or six Mock Interviews.

Our Mock Interviews are 30 minutes long and are followed by 15 minutes of live, immediate feedback. Students also receive comprehensive written feedback after each interview, giving them the opportunity to hone their skills and develop their interview technique.

Schools can send or refer students to attend our Mock Interview Day and receive a significantly reduced rate, while also benefiting from the additional data we collate and share with schools. This ensures the school understands how to continue supporting their students beyond our course, ahead of the student’s upcoming interviews.

Our next Mock Interview Days take place in November 2022.

Recent reviews

Working with Oxford and Cambridge Tutors has offered real peace of mind for me as a counsellor. There are lots of brilliant aspects to the service they provide including excellent and detailed reports on students and a hard-working and responsive backroom team. But the thing that has most impressed us has been their flexibility. The cohort who go onto make Oxbridge applications can vary massively from year to year and across the course of the application process. Oxford and Cambridge Tutors have consistently been able to make changes at short notice and work with us logistically and financially to provide a bespoke package that works for our school and our students.

Working in collaboration with Oxford and Cambridge Tutors supporting Year 12 and Year 13 prepare for Oxbridge has been a fantastic experience. Our students have enjoyed the academic challenge, focusing on the super curriculum and detailed preparation for extra testing and Oxbridge interviews. The detailed lesson reports shared with students and their teachers, help create collaborative teamwork between school and tutors to support students beyond the curriculum. David and his team are professional, highly qualified and tutorials are well planned and interactive. I would highly recommend Oxford and Cambridge Tutors to all students preparing for the vigorous Oxbridge application process.

As a teacher and a parent I have been incredibly impressed with Oxford and Cambridge Tutors. Applying for Oxbridge can be a stressful experience, but working with the highly professional tutors which Oxford and Cambridge Tutors offer has left my daughter feeling that she had prepared for her interview as thoroughly as she possibly could. I can also see that the experience has been useful for her in and of itself. She has grown in confidence academically from working with the tutors and this is something that will be useful when she goes onto any UK university.
