For Parents & Guardians
Your Child's Oxbridge Journey — How We Support It
Parents have full visibility at every step. From your first enquiry to offer day, you'll always know what's happening and how your child is progressing.
Our Promise to Families
A Partner You Can Trust With Your Child's Future
Choosing the right tutoring partner is one of the most important decisions you'll make in the run-up to your child's application. Every Oxbridge Mentors tutor is a graduate of Oxford or Cambridge — personally interviewed, reference-checked, and matched to your child by subject, course, and learning style.
You'll receive session notes after every lesson, transparent progress updates, and a direct line to our team whenever you need it. No black boxes, no surprises.
The Process
How It Works for Parents
From your first enquiry to offer day, here is what the process looks like — and how you stay informed at every step.

We speak to you and your child together to understand their goals, subject interests, and where they are in the application process. No commitment required.
Personalised Plan
We share a detailed programme so you know exactly what to expect — covering personal statements, admissions tests, interviews, or subject tutoring.
Expert Tutor Matching
Your child is matched with a tutor who studied their subject at Oxford or Cambridge — selected by subject expertise, university experience, and learning style.
Sessions with Progress Visibility
After every lesson, session notes are shared so you can see what was covered, what went well, and what your child should focus on next.
