Hi, I’m Tom. I have been tutoring for 5 years and I would be delighted to take you on as my next student! My own academic journey has been incredibly fulfilling, providing me with exciting opportunities and transforming my approach to learning. Through my studies, I developed a deep passion for my subjects, honed my problem-solving skills, and built the confidence to tackle complex challenges.

I find immense joy in guiding students on their own academic paths. The most rewarding aspect of tutoring for me is witnessing the growth in my students – seeing their understanding deepen, their grades improve, and their confidence soar. I firmly believe that the skills and mindsets developed through our work together will serve them well not just in their immediate academic pursuits, but in all their future endeavors. Whether you’re aiming for top grades, preparing for university admissions, or simply looking to deepen your understanding of maths and science, I’m here to support and inspire you every step of the way.

I am an extremely thorough and committed tutor with a tailored approach for every student. This includes especially crafted sheets of French idioms and vocab to ensure a thorough and authentic absorption of the language. My individualised approaches allow me to tailor tuition to a student’s personality, ensuring that the pace and focus of the lessons is uniquely suitable for them. As someone who speaks four languages I enjoy making cross-references between different languages. I speak fluent Russian and conversational Italian and love introducing students to the comparisons of languages and to their history.

Elsewhere I am a writer and a professional classical music critic. I have contributed to The Guardian, Bachtrack, musicOMH, BroadwayWorld, BBC Music Magazine and OperaWire, and conducted operatic research around the world for The Callas Imprint: A Centennial Biography. This richly detailed account of Maria Callas’ life was published to coincide with her one hundredth birthday in December 2023, and is currently a finalist in the 2024 ARSC Awards for Best Historical Research in Recorded Classical Music.

I started my Classical studies in Year 7 at school before going on to take my GCSE Latin in 2005 and A-Levels in Latin and Classical Civilisation in 2007.

I studied for my BA in Classics (including Latin and Classical Greek) at Manchester, graduating in 2012, and then stayed to study for my MA in Classics and Ancient History and gained the highest award (Distinction).

I have worked as a teacher in various settings including state and independent secondary schools and sixth forms for the past ten years and as an examiner for the major exam boards since 2015.

Outside of the classroom, I enjoy walking in the Pennines and Lake District, going to concerts and the theatre, particularly to watch modern retellings and university performances of ancient myths, including the tragedies and comedies for which Athens became so famous.

Hello! My name is Emily and I am a recent graduate of the University of Oxford, where I read Geography and was awarded an academic scholarship. I am currently studying for a law conversion and will shortly commence a training contract at a magic circle law firm.

I began offering tuition shortly after I completed my A-level studies at Godolphin &
Latymer, where I achieved A*s in Mathematics, Geography, French, Spanish and in an EPQ. Since then I have gained experience supporting primary students working towards 11+ and Common Entrance exams, worked with students preparing for their GCSE and A-level exams, including revision and consolidation work throughout the year as well as exam paper practice and final preparation, and helping students with university applications and transfer work.

I am passionate about learning and love the direct impact 1-to-1 tuition allows me to have on
my students and their own learning journey. I take a keen interest in prompting students’ own independent learning and ensuring their progress with me. My lively, energetic and fun approach helps my students stay engaged and make my sessions memorable.
