Preferred Involvement
Insight Education (IE) is a sponsor company and the trading arm of our charity. The company has permitted Insight Outreach use of its mentoring programme frameworks, syllabus and guidance to run the Oxbridge Mentoring Scheme (OMS) with the involvement of volunteers as mentors. Volunteer mentors may additionally opt to take on paid work under Insight Education by highlighting their preferences below. Note that mentoring under Insight Outreach's OMS provides on-the-job training for Insight Education's equivalent mentoring programme which works with international students. Please indicate any preferred levels of involvement below.
Are you interested participating in IE's academic mentoring programme?*
Are you interested in giving private tuition to (I)GCSE, A level or IB students?*
Are you interested in UCAS workshop brainstorming?*
This involves leading a UCAS brainstorming session using IE's framework, engaging students in mind-mapping their ideas. Once students have drafted their personal statements, tutors will provide constructive (written) advice to help students develop and improve their ideas . The same guidance for UCAS brainstorming under the OMP is used for brainstorming and review. Note that Insight Education has a policy against writing and redrafting personal statements for students.
Are you interested in giving presentations?*
Involvement in presentations, workshops and webinars entails giving PowerPoint presentations (in person or online) to audiences of students, parents and teachers. Tutors are used to explain IE's academic mentoring frameworks to illustrate what mentoring sessions cover, and to share their mentoring experience with other mentors/tutors as part of induction & training workshops and webinars.
Are you interested in the Talent Pool?*
The Talent Pool provides flexible part-time opportunities to create processes, systems and academic programmes. Projects have included planning and running winter and summer events, creating educational courses, writing training material, business administration, China-Britain STEM/STEAM conferences and marketing.
