14About Me
I am a graduate of the University of Cambridge (MPhil in Development Studies) and the London School of Economics (BSc in Politics and History), with over four years of tutoring experience in A-Level Politics, Economics, and History. Alongside academic tutoring, I have provided in-depth support for university admissions, specialising in personal statement development, course selection advice, and interview preparation.
I have helped students secure offers from leading institutions including LSE, Oxford, and Cambridge, with a focus on refining their academic profiles and articulating their personal narratives. Drawing on my own experience of competitive admissions, I work closely with students to strengthen both their subject knowledge and their application strategy, ensuring they present their achievements and aspirations in the strongest possible light.
My teaching style
Having studied at two of the world’s leading universities, I understand what it takes to excel academically and navigate competitive admissions processes. My approach focuses on building a deep understanding of subject material, sharpening exam techniques, and helping students craft compelling applications tailored to their strengths and aspirations.
My past experience
Yes, around 4 years of teaching History, Politics and Economics along with university counselling.
My Proudest Achievements
Securing a scholarship to pursue an MPhil at Cambridge was a significant milestone, allowing me to conduct original research on the persecution of religious minorities in South Asia. Supported by a fieldwork grant, I undertook primary research on the ground, collecting interviews and community testimonies that formed the foundation of my dissertation.
