About Me

I am a keen cruciverbalist (fan of cryptic crosswords), and write a blog about the 'Enigmatic Variations' thematic crossword in the Sunday Telegraph.

I am also a former Royal Marines Commando, although my green beret stays clean and dry these days at the back of my cupboard.

I'm more likely to be found at a live Met Opera screening or reading classic noir.

Tutor Experience

I have taught a broad range of subjects in the UK and internationally periodically over the last 20 years.

I thoroughly prepare each lesson to meet the student's specific needs. I have taught A*- and E-grade students and, whatever the student's academic history, I bring clarity and order to complicated concepts, enabling them to acquire the confidence and skills they need to succeed.

I am extremely adaptable, and have taught mathematics, economics, politics, philosophy, business studies, history, close reading, literary analysis, and exam/essay technique, as well as devising and teaching a beginners’ business Russian course. I have significant TEFL experience, including at the Oxford English Centre.
