Online History Tutor Jamie

I have been teaching since 2018; I have thousands of hours under my belt across a range of subjects and ages. I am currently studying for a PhD at the University of Toronto. I previously studied at Oxford and Cambridge; I received a First Class degree from both institutions. I focus on teaching pupils conceptual skills which allow them to tackle a broad variety of intellectual problems with ease; moreover I place a special emphasis on analysis that is concise, and methodologically coherent. Most, of all I enjoy seeing my pupils grow their own talents through the discovery of their intellectual, and personal, voice.

I teach History (Ancient, Medieval and Modern), social sciences, theology and philosophy between 11+ and A level; including OCR, Edexcel, Pre-U and IB. I enjoy teaching the basic necessary skills of textual, conceptual and critical analysis which comprise the majority of these subjects; I also work with the pupil to reach a detailed understanding of what mark schemes require from successful candidates.

I also teach History, Theology and Philosophy at an undergraduate level: particularly European history, historiography, intellectual history, historical theologies, international history, philosophy of history, epistemology, Aristotelianism, and philosophy of religion.

I have wide experience introducing younger pupils to more complex ideas through critical thinking and I frequently teach for schools admissions. I also coach for university applications; be it interview, the personal statement, entrance examinations or aptitude tests. I have also coached BP debating, as well as Model United Nations, and competed both nationally and internationally.
