Experienced tutor with over 15 years in teaching and experience in university admissions prep

I am a very experienced educator specialising in the humanities, history and exam and admissions preparation. With 17 years of working as a university lecturer, schoolteacher, and tutor, I bring a wealth of experience and am a specialist in preparing for university admissions, particularly Oxbridge applications.

I am enthusiastic and passionate about learning and education, and I strive to share that with my students while helping them achieve their goals. I believe that students achieve their best when lessons are engaging and entertaining, but also tailored to their particular learning style. My lessons are structured but with flexibility and a range of tasks, such as reading, analysis of sources, media, and discussion, as well as exam preparation. I will suggest materials, exercises and tasks for students to work on outside sessions, though this will always be tailored to the student`s needs. I am always happy to work out a personalised learning and development plan.

I am currently employed as a lecturer and I have taught history to students at all levels from BA to PhD supervision at several universities, examined university degrees, run admissions at the University of Oxford. I have also worked in a top private school in London, and I have extensive experience helping students prepare for 11+, school admissions and university admissions.
I have extensive experience in designing and running online learning and teaching, having coordinated this for my university during Covid-19.
