Experience
I have several years' experience of tutoring particularly undergraduate and postgraduate students in a range of social science subjects. Previously, this focused in particular on Law, given my professional background; however, my tutoring focus is now on IR and politics.
I have received consistently positive feedback from my tutees. In some cases, tutees' grades have improved from a 'failing' grade up to a 'distinction' level grade following my tuition.
I can also assist students with Oxbridge admissions support, including admissions test preparation.
