Once you have submitted your enrolment and paid a deposit, you will be sent a booking confirmation asking for more information on your academic background and goals.
Using your academic background form, our team will match your profile with one of our expert tutors from Oxford, Cambridge and Ivy League Universities.
Once your tutor has been found, timetable confirmed and full fees received, you will receive final instructions containing details about your programme, such as a course overview, how to access your virtual classroom, as well as any additional material from your tutor.

At the end of the course, your academic research project will be independently assessed and you will receive a certificate of completion, as well as a detailed evaluation from your tutor.
What Do Our Alumni Say?
I was afraid that the tutorials would be too much like lectures – the teacher gives a monologue and I do not have any opportunity to talk. It turned out to be exactly the opposite. My tutor was always asking me questions and probing my knowledge.
I loved that I got to think out loud and I gained a lot of confidence doing so. The tutor never gave long lectures but instead focused on filling the gaps in my knowledge and took the topic even further.
