About Alice
Hi, my name is Alice, and I'm a current PhD student (and teaching supervisor) in Geography and Social Anthropology at the University of Cambridge. I tutor a broad range of subjects, from Geography and Social Anthropology up to degree level, English Literature up to A-Level, and several others at GCSE Level - including Biology, Religious Studies and English Language.
I have a strong track record of helping students achieve their best, based on six years working as a private tutor, and one year supervising undergraduates on the Cambridge BA Geography course. In my AS and A2 exams, (2014-2015) I consistently achieved 100% UMS, and have good knowledge of the A-Level examination structure and system as a whole. I also received first-class marks for all three years of my Cambridge degree (2015-2018), and came 2nd in my cohort of 102 students. As a tutor, I am friendly, patient and engaging. As several of my students have come to me with specific additional learning needs, I am experienced in helping students with ADHD and dyslexia.
My current PhD in Geography and Social Anthropology is about climate change in the Himalayas, which has involved significant fieldwork in remote South Asia. I am so passionate about helping students embrace everything that Geography has to offer, and this extends to other Humanities and Social Science topics. I'm also a published freelance journalist.
Having gained admission to the University of Cambridge from a state school, and remaining there to date, I also feel both confident and able to assist with the Oxbridge Admissions process for Humanities and Social Science subjects. This extends up to interview advice and practice, personal statement assistance, and guiding you through the application process. This ability has been strengthened by my regular work conducting Cambridge access tours for disadvantaged schools and sixth-form students. As such, I am confident that my admissions information, provided directly by my college, is up-to-date, comprehensive, and can be delivered accessibly to teenagers.
If you have any further questions, do feel free to message me. Thank you very much!

Perfect! Tutoring for the United States - Great Experience
Alice was AMAZING!!!!
She was extremely flexible and kind. Our time zones were flipped and Alice was extremely helpful she stayed until late to help me, which I greatly appreciated. I am from the United States and she helped me to study for my AICE exam, a program used in the states for scholarships. She would give me practice questions and even allowed for two hour sessions! One of the best tutors I have had in a while. She helped me gain so much confidence in the material I was working with. Her sessions were also very engaging as she created notes I could study from and frequently asked me questions about the topic.
Thank you so much Alice!

I approached Alice requesting some general assistance with my undergrad dissertation. I had most of the research down but was really struggling to condense it into a concise and coherent piece of work. Alice offered some really helpful suggestions and advice, tailored to my specific case, which made the experience much more straightforward and really reduced my stress levels!
