Hello - I'm Tim, a graduate from Durham University and the University of Oxford. Whilst there, I debated extensively, becoming the English Debate Champion and Best Speaker in 2018. I have over five years and 1400 hours of experience tutoring 100+ students from primary school up to A-level.
My academic qualifications are as follows:
Distinction in MA International Relations from Durham University
2.1 in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from the University of Oxford
A*s at A-level in English Literature, Economics and Politics
A at A-level in German
11 A*s at GCSE (Biology, Business Studies, Chemistry, English Language, English Literature, History, Geography, German, Mathematics, Physics, Religious Education)
Additionally, I passed the 11+ entrance exams for Wilson's School, Wallington County Grammar School, and St. Olave's Grammar School.
In addition to my tutoring experience, I have extensive experience teaching debating to students ranging from 8-18 over a period of eight years. This involved delivering workshops on both debating technique and content, before allowing students to put their learning into practice and providing extensive feedback on their speeches.
I have supported students in successful applications to a range of prestigious schools and universities including Cambridge, the LSE and Warwick.
I like to identify where the most improvement can be made and target encouraging feedback towards those areas. Often I find it helpful to have students prepare material for each session so we can work through the answers and clarify any misunderstandings before applying the learning to new examples.
I'm more than happy to adapt my teaching style to make sure your child gets the most out of tutoring.
