I am in my last year of history teacher training and I want to help students get better in history. As a history teacher I can help students very well.

Learning to learn is important in any subject and I've done a lot of research on what works. That is why I also teach you how to study effectively, for example how to take notes effectively and that you can recall everything you have learned while taking tests.

Have you been invited to interview at Oxford or Cambridge this coming autumn? Congratulations!

Oxbridge interviews are the make-or-break stage in acceptance into one of these two top-tier universities, and they require a significant amount of preparation and know-how in order to succeed.

Having successfully secured a place for myself to study English Language & Literature at the University of Oxford in 2015, and having been subsequently invited to pursue a Master's degree in English literature on scholarship, I am versed in the intricacies and expectations of the interview process for a range of disciplines.

I work with students across a series of sessions to hone their understanding of what's expected of them during the interview process, to identify their particular strengths and improve on their weakness, and to practice extemporaneous speaking and timed essay-writing and test-taking.

Each course is designed with the candidate in mind, and I can outline a recommended number of sessions and their contents based on an initial session.

No scams. Lots of patience. I came from the humanities. My math was hmm and meh in high school. Now a Wizard, with test scores to prove it.
