Personally Interviewed
Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge. They have extensive tutoring experience with a track record of success, helping students achieve their academic goals.
Tutoring Experience
My professional experience in admissions and schools consulting means that I have mentored students covering a wide range of subjects including Medicine, Sciences, Engineering and Geography.
In addition to university application mentoring and tutoring, I have tutored a number of students over the past 5 years to GCSE and A Level. The particular focus was on History, Latin, Classical Civilisation and Italian.
I currently work full time in a top London Sixth Form as an Academic Coach in History.
