Tutoring Experience

For the past seven years I have tutored online and in-person across leading platforms and privately, supporting learners from Key Stage 2 to A-Level. I specialise in GCSE History, A-Level History and Philosophy, and have steered numerous pupils to A and A* grades. My mentoring also spans UCAT preparation and Oxbridge admissions, including personal statements, SAQs, essays and interview practice, and has seen multiple Oxbridge offers secured. At a secondary school I spent six months supporting SEN students in English.

Tutoring Approach

Every student learns differently, so I start by diagnosing preferred styles before designing sessions. For content-heavy subjects I blend concise “mini-lectures” with active recall drills, past-paper analysis and real-time essay planning. Philosophy’s abstract ideas become concrete through diagrams and debate, while UCAT prep centres on timed mock sections, pattern-spotting strategies and reflective error logs. Regular feedback loops keep goals visible and progress measurable, ensuring confidence grows alongside grades.
