Philosophy Admissions Tutors : 1-1 Philosophy Admissions Preparation

I am a dedicated and passionate tutor with dual Master’s degrees in Computer Science (Imperial) and Philosophy (Cambridge). My academic background has equipped me with a strong foundation in logical reasoning, problem-solving, and abstract thinking. I am eager to bring these skills to tutoring you Physics, Math, and Philosophy. I am also happy to provide general mentoring about these subjects.

At high-school level, I did IB (Sevenoaks School) and I got 766 (which is equivalent to A*AA) in Higher Level Physics, Math and Philosophy. I also received full marks for the Extended Essay in Philosophy.

I was born in Seoul, Korea and I moved from county to country for my entire childhood.

In my own time I practice Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and play chess. I am also building an edu-tech platform with friends from university.

I have graduated from the University of Oxford with a 2.1 in Philosophy and Theology. Prior to attending Oxford, I achieved A*A*A* in English Literature, Latin and Religious Studies, with 5 A*S, 4 Grade 9s and a Grade 8 in GCSEs.

For the past few years, I have been a private tutor which has also entailed mentoring young students and seeing them progress and achieving their dream spots at their universities. This has enabled me to build client relationships and to handle multiple concurrent tasks, since I balanced tutoring with my ability to thrive in Oxford’s rigorous academic environment. I also believe that I work well under time constraints and to meet deadlines, which is an ability that my time at Oxford has prepared me well for.

I am well-placed to provide tuition at 11 and 13+, as well as English Language, English Literature and RE GCSE, A-Level and degree-level tuition. I am also up-to-date on examination syllabi and the requirements needed for achieving top marks.

I have tutoring experience in GCSE English Language, GCSE English Literature, GCSE Religious Studies and Oxbridge Classics admissions. I also mentor students in application for Oxbridge Classics, as I changed degrees in my third year, and assisted a student in her successful entrance to Oxford for Classics via personal statement, interview/test advice and general information about the course and university life. Therefore, I am available to support Oxbridge Classics admissions.

After graduating with a Philosophy BA (first class) from King’s College London, I worked in commercial law for one of the world’s leading tech companies for a period of one year, before leaving to pursue my own entrepreneurial career in app development.

LNAT tutoring: I have secured entry to Durham University and King’s College London (among others) for LNAT students, helping them achieve marks of 31+.

French tutoring: I am a native French speaker and obtained A* at A-level French (native speaker exam) as well as A* at GCSE. I have acted as French teacher and curriculum designer to home-schooled students, helping them to achieve A at A-level, as well as securing multiple high-scoring IB and GCSE results.

Legal experience: I have completed mini-pupillages at top commercial law chambers such as Quadrant Chambers and Four New Square, and won several moot court competitions both within King’s College and representing the university on the European stage, all of which has given me extensive academic and professional legal experience.

Darcy Dixon graduated from the University of Oxford in 2022 with a High 2.1 and several first class papers.

Darcy went to St Peters studying the Joint honours degree Philosophy and Theology. Darcy was in the Top 100 Undergraduates for Future Leaders Magazine.

Darcy has done a TEDx talk on the power of change and immediate action. Darcy is also the Vice Chair of the Black Head Students Network, an organisation committed to propelling Black youth leadership within schools. Currently, Darcy is Resident Creative at City University of London, in Islington.

Darcy was on the Young Mentor programme for the Young Vic Theatre, where she was trained to advise industry professionals.

Hi! My name is Roheena and I’ve just finished my degree in PPE at Merton College, Oxford. In my spare time I enjoy going to the gym, volunteering with charities I care about and learning new languages (currently working on my Mandarin).

Throughout my studies I, like most people, have had ups and downs, but I’m a firm believer that if you are willing to stick at something, it will work out, whatever your goal is. For me, my goal was nine level nines at GCSE and going to Oxford; I’m pleased to say I’ve had a wonderful time doing both. While I don’t yet know what your goals are, I’m keen to be with you as you work towards achieving them!

Pre-warning: I have a very cute (I promise!) cat called Winter who I love very much. I cannot promise she won’t feature in the background of a video camera if given sufficient opportunity. I can promise you will have all of my attention, however jealous she may be.
