I got to Cambridge without the help I needed, and that is why I am now dedicated to alleviate the same panic, stress and pressure by being a mentor and guide to many aspirants. I am a third-year law student and I know first-hand how confusing and intimidating the process can feel when you do not have guidance, and I have spent the past two years turning that experience into a clear, structured system that helps students succeed. I specialise in Law admissions, LNAT preparation and Oxbridge interview coaching, with consistent results across Oxbridge and Russell Group universities. My approach goes beyond grades and model answers. I focus on strategy, confidence, and how to think under pressure, so students walk into exams and interviews calm, prepared and in control. I offer a complete, supportive package and take genuine pride in seeing students exceed what they thought was possible.

Offer from Cambridgeoffers from top 10 universitiesOffers from global law firmsOffers for vacation schemesOffers for Training ContractsAchieved 9 A* equivalent at GCSEsA* A* A* at A-LevelFirst-class with distinction in dissertationhigh 2.1 from Cambridge

Hi there!

My name is Ruairi (think roar-ree). I have recently graduated from the University of Cambridge with, among other things, a first-class with distinction in my dissertation on public policy. Throughout my time at Cambridge, I have taken papers spanning development, economics, law, and policy. I am combining the knowledge and skills I gained during my undergraduate degree to become a corporate lawyer at a global, Top 20 AM Law firm.

In the meantime, I would like to tutor you! I have thoroughly enjoyed tutoring in the past and believe I can help you excel in a wide range of subjects. I would also be more than happy to help with applications and interviews, be that to universities or to law firms. More generally, I can give you advice on navigating college/sixth form, university, and the corporate world, based on my past successes (and failures!).

Outside of academia and work, I like to watch Arsenal and international rugby. I am also hoping to get back into gym and kickboxing in the new academic year, as well as jewellery-making.

I hope to hear from you soon – please do reach out if you are interested!

Offer from Cambridge MphilOffer from Oxford MstOffer from St Andrews MLittAward for Highest Score in my CohortAward for Best Essay in Year 3Helped 4 receive Oxbridge postgraduate offersHelped 6 receive Russell Group offers

As a current PhD student in English at the University of Cambridge, with a solid academic background including a BA in Comparative Literature from QMUL and a Mst in English Literature (1830-1914), I am thrilled to offer my expertise and guidance in English language and literature, creative writing, Italian, and essay skills, as well as help with university admissions.
I am bilingual, fluent in Italian and English, and since 2016, I have been tutoring students aged 10 to 19 in various subjects. Notably, I have assisted four students in securing MSt/MPhil offers from Oxbridge in humanities subjects and supported many others in gaining admission to prestigious institutions within the Russell Group.
My tutoring style is characterised by enthusiasm, organisation, and adaptability to your specific needs. I believe in fostering a comfortable learning environment where questions are encouraged. Having navigated the application processes myself, I understand the importance of tailored support for personal statements and interview preparation.
Whether you are preparing for exams, refining your language skills, or navigating the complexities of university applications, I am here to help. Together, we will work at a pace that aligns with your learning style, building your self-confidence along the way 🙂
