My tutorials are driven by student curiosity.

Questioning and discussion are used to extend and enrich critical thinking and contextual understanding of topics and issues.

This approach is particularly well suited to students working towards EPQ submissions, Oxbridge interviews, apprencticeship applications or other applications for competitive programmes.

I have experience of working online with international students with EAL and ambitions to apply for competitive courses at highly regarded universities. I also have extensive experience of mentoring students with their UCAS applications and any supporting essays that may be required.

I have expereince of working with students on various essay competitions as evidence of specific and relevant supra-curricular enrichment.

I also have experience of supporting disabled students with UCAS applications as well as pre-application enquiries and post-offer transition from school to university.

I had the privilege of being taught by Mr Yates for three years, both in A-Level Law and as my EPQ supervisor. His passion for teaching really shines through in every lesson, as he has a way of explaining complex topics that makes them easier to understand and connect theory to real-world situations. During my EPQ, his guidance was incredibly valuable, especially in helping me narrow down my research question and making sure my project had the right focus and depth. He always pushed me to think more critically, express my ideas clearly, and improve my academic writing, which motivated me to aim higher and excel in my studies. He also provided thoughtful and honest feedback on my personal statement, which was incredibly helpful during my university application process. I’m very grateful for his guidance, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for help with Law, EPQ, or applying to competitive UK universities.

Mr Yates was my A-Level History teacher for a year. During this period I’ve had the most amazing experience being taught by an exceptional person. I enjoyed the structure of his lessons and methods of delivery. His previous experience as a solicitor always came through which made me feel challenged and stimulated.
