About Me

Right now I'm working as a research assistant for a professor at Cambridge. Before that I graduated with a Starred First in Human, Social and Political Sciences from Cambridge, having studied widely across politics, sociology and anthropology (and originally studying Land Economy). Aside from academics, I've interned at various magic circle law firms and top-tier investment banks, and have keen side interests in coffee and publishing.

Tutor Experience

I'm an expert in dissertation writing & admissions mentoring: focusing on what is required, and how to achieve it. Most of my experience is with helping candidates with their applications to leading universities, such as Oxbridge. This is work that I find incredibly fulfilling, and it is always a pleasure to see a student's progress from our initial conversation to the ultimate outcome of an application. Separately, I undertake some specialist work at university level, and help those with certain specific learning challenges, such as ADHD, also.

My tutoring philosophy is student-centred: my aim is always to create a supportive, friendly and exciting environment for learning to thrive. I respond dynamically to the needs of each student I teach, shaping my teaching style so that it best serves their personality and interests. I'm particularly keen on making my lessons as practical as possible. My students are invited to hone their skills in writing, critical reading, research, note-taking, and articulation from the get-go. Through learning how to formulate original ideas and express themselves clearly, my students are able to develop greater confidence in themselves and gain a deeper sense of autonomy and initiative towards their school and university work. In all, I see our relationship as one of a mentor to mentee.

Topic Expertise

I have several years of tutoring experience, originally for subject specific secondary school teaching, but now I focus primarily on my helping candidates with their applications to leading universities, such as Oxbridge, as well as with elite private and public schools sometimes too. This is work that I find incredibly fulfilling, and it is always a pleasure to see a student's progress from our initial conversation to the ultimate outcome of an application. I also undertake some specialist work at university level, and with certain specific learning challenges too.
