I am a 30-year-old tutor, living and working in Oxfordshire. I have been tutoring since 2012. My aim is not specifically to teach - that is only one aspect of tutoring. Instead, my aim is to help a student in their own learning process - allowing students to develop their own interSince completing my degree, earning a First in Linguistics and Spanish from St. Catherine's College, Oxford, tutoring has become the mainstay of my work. I regularly attend Oxbridge admissions-focussed events for both schools and the general public, as an experienced mock interviewer, seminar leader, and test coach. My speciality is Spanish, though I always hope for aspiring Linguistics students! When tutoring, I do not use the word "lesson"; that's a poor description of the dynamic. Students have a goal, and it is the task of both me and a student to work towards that goal. I have a very informal style in the session, but I hope to back this up with good communication and organisation behind the scenes. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy hiking, cooking, and snooker (even though I'm hopeless at it).ests, to use their time effectively, and to truly enjoy their studies.

When not tutoring, I fill my time with cooking, drawing, hiking, snooker, and hundreds of podcasts.
