PPE Tutors : 1-1 PPE Preparation

I graduated from the University of Oxford with a first-class degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE). I am working as a tutor whilst I continue my studies towards a MA in politics from Kings College London. My research interests are in 20th century political philosophy but tutor a wide range of subjects, specialising helping students to prepare for the the TSA Oxford entrance exam, personal statement guidance and Oxford interview preparation.

Currently I am on track to graduate from King’s College London with the highest possible grade and have received an offer to return to next year for further postgraduate study. Ultimately I am to obtain a teaching position within academia and peruse a career publishing my research in the fields of Politics and Philosophy.

Outside of teaching and academia I enjoy spending time with my friends, especially outdoors.

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

In Oxford, Darcy was an access rep for her JCR, was the Equity rep for Oxford Drama Society, and the Outreach rep for ACS. She sang at Keble College and was an Open Day rep for the Theology Faculty. 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.

Beyond my academic background in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics, I am deeply passionate about fostering engagement and curiosity in learning. My experience as President of the Debate Club and participation in societies such as PPE Football, Debate Society, and PPE Society have sharpened my ability to communicate complex ideas clearly—an essential skill for tutoring.

Additionally, my involvement in Manchester’s Kabaddi and Kho Societies, where I competed in regional and national tournaments, has given me a strong sense of discipline, teamwork, and resilience—qualities I bring into teaching. Organizing and leading initiatives, such as the Diwali Ball during my tenure as Vice President of Manchester Hindu Society, has reinforced my ability to manage and inspire groups effectively.

I am eager to bring this enthusiasm and strategic mindset to tutoring, helping students navigate their learning journey with confidence and curiosity. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my diverse interests and experiences can support student development.

Hi! I am a final-year PPE student at the University of Oxford, on track to achieve a high first-class degree. I specialise in Politics and Philosophy, but am still familiar with economic concepts and able to teach this at a pre-university level. I took Politics, Mathematics, and Economics at A-Level, and wrote an EPQ in Philosophy. I achieved a very high score on the TSA admissions test for Oxford, and performed well enough at interview to obtain an offer. Throughout my course, I have offered tuition for A-level and GCSE students, and supported them with exam preparation. I have also supported students at earlier years for 11+ tests, and later years for interview practice and personal statement support. I have a passion for making learning engaging, meaningful, and making sure people feel prepared and confident for whatever tests or assignments they may have coming up.

Hi, I’m Niamh Walters, and I’m here to help you achieve your academic goals with confidence and ease! As a second-year Human, Social, and Political Sciences student at the University of Cambridge, I’ve developed a strong academic foundation and a love for learning that I’m excited to share with my students.

I have extensive experience in tutoring, teaching, and coordinating educational projects, which has taught me how to adapt my approach to suit different learning styles and needs. Whether it’s breaking down tricky concepts, preparing for exams, or building critical thinking skills, I’m passionate about making complex ideas simple and accessible.

My academic interests include politics, sociology, and gender studies, but my real strength lies in connecting with students and fostering a supportive, engaging environment. I’m organised, patient, and enthusiastic, so I’ll always bring energy and focus to our sessions.

I believe that learning should be enjoyable and empowering, and my goal is to help you not only succeed academically but also gain confidence in your abilities! i can’t wait to meet you
