Ollie

I am currently in my second year of law school, before starting work at a law firm in August. My first degree was in History and Spanish, at Cambridge University. Throughout my life as a student, I've been inspired by drawing connections between subjects, and trying to find ways of simplifying the complex problems in explaining language-teaching to students.

I'm a very keen hockey player, and I love music, reading, sports in general. I love to try and incorporate these elements into my teaching - I think the best way to learn is to make it part of the things that you love.

Tutoring Experience

TEACHING/ TUTORING EXPERIENCE:

1. I have helped candidates with applications to Magic Circle law firms (where I have obtained future employment).
2. I have helped candidates prepare for Oxbridge interviews.
3. I have coached hockey to children from the ages of 4-17.

Tutoring Approach

My teaching style is aimed at creating a relaxed, discursive learning environment. Growing up, I often found that people explain complex ideas, and tough aspects of subjects, with just more complex words! My aim is to make all elements of teaching - from the simplest, to the most advanced ideas - accessible, and understandable.

My teaching can be direct and specification-focussed where necessary; but also fun and inspiring - looking to introduce students to the brilliant connections that can be drawn between subjects.

I am very happy to adjust my techniques depending on the individual student’s preferences, goals, and characteristics (e.g. age).

My lessons can be tailored to all ages and levels. Their length can range as desired by the student/ parents as well.
