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!

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.

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 🙂

    Hello, I’m Vaneeza, and I’m excited to help your child excel in English, Law, History, Philosophy, or Spanish from GCSE to A-Level. I am a finalist studying Law at Cambridge and achieved 3 A*s at A-Level, so I know firsthand what it takes to succeed in these subjects. I hope to make essay-based subjects more engaging, by drawing on broader questions and honing in on what makes excellent analysis.
    Coming from a state school and being the first generation at university, I understand the challenges students face when working towards their futures and how to overcome them. My track record of helping students achieve remarkable success speaks to the effectiveness of my methods. I believe that fostering the right mindset is key to academic success, so by creating a positive and encouraging environment, I help students build confidence and develop a genuine love for thinking critically and showing that passion in their essays. When I’m not studying myself, I am usually at the gym or sewing away!

    Hi there! My name is Jess Cullen, and I am a first class graduate in English Language and Literature from Balliol College, Oxford. Here, I was an exhibitionist and award winner at my college, while captaining the Blues football team. I loved my degree, and although I now work in the sports consulting space, tutoring English and supporting people in their love of the language is one of my greatest passions. In my spare time I love playing sport, guitar, and singing!

    Before Oxford, I studied in Dubai and Australia. I sat A-levels, achieving an A*A*AA* in English, Spanish, Mathematics, and in my EPQ, in which I scored 100/100. Alongside this I have also sat the SAT, scoring a 1560, and took GCSEs gaining nearly all 9s (bar physics!). I applied to Oxford as an international student, so I know the ins and outs of the application system, and can support students applying for any subject by ensuring their personal statement reads well and ticks the necessary boxes.
