Our Founder’s Vision
Eve, the founder of Doinel Education, graduated from the University of Cambridge with First Class Honors in Natural Sciences before completing her Master’s degree at Harvard University. With over five years of experience as an Oxbridge admissions consultant, she has helped more than one hundred students navigate the uniquely challenging Oxbridge application process.
During this time, she observed that many students weren’t starting their preparation early enough, often missing out on crucial foundational skills—skills that take months or even years to develop and cannot be crammed into the final weeks before applying. Likewise, the experiences that strengthen a personal statement must be accumulated long before the writing process begins.
This led to the creation of Doinel Education and its tailored programmes, which emphasize early preparation—ensuring students build the academic and personal skills necessary to maximize their chances of an Oxbridge offer while also equipping them for long-term academic and professional success beyond university admissions.
