About George
I’m an understanding and adaptive tutor with five years' experience and a strong track record. I graduated from Oxford this year with a Masters in Roman History and a BA in Ancient and Modern History, and have been tutoring throughout my time there. Over that time I have acquired particular experience in coaching students for Oxbridge application tests like the HAT and HAA, as well as personal statement and interview prep. I’ve also taught A-Level and GCSE History and English, with good results, to a variety of learners. I focus on improving students' exam and essay technique, as well as thinking about how they can analyse primary and secondary sources, incorporate historiographical concepts into their writing and thinking, and make their essays stand out. - University of Oxford, MPhil in Roman History (Distinction) - University of Oxford, BA in Ancient and Modern History (First-class) - A*A*A*A* in A-Level English Literature, History, Economics, and Ancient History

My approach is centred on the level and needs of the student, but I always try to encourage genuine enthusiasm, independent thinking, and enjoyment of the subject. I begin by chatting with the student about their pre-existing interests, their goals, and any things they struggle with. Afterwards, we build a structured plan which iteratively addresses those tricky areas and builds enthusiasm for the subject. I’ve been told that my own interest is infectious, but I can’t confirm that. Depending on the student and their priorities, the lessons can be super straightforward — just thinking about how to structure essays and articulate their ideas — or can deal with complex concepts and problems. Whatever the level or the problem, I can usually guide you through it. Through my degree, I’ve studied most parts of the world and most bits of history at least once, and I have extensive knowledge of the Oxbridge admissions system. I maintain a positive, friendly, relaxed environment so that the student feels encouraged and comfortable. I firmly believe that people perform best when they can feel confident and happy in their knowledge and themselves, not anxious or intimidated.
