About Oscar

I am a UK-qualified secondary educator with fifteen years of international teaching experience and a very strong academic background. I have taught in the UK, Sudan, Angola and Madagascar, and am currently based in Tunis. This experience encompasses curriculum and examination design as well as Oxbridge interview preparation, which allows me to help students understand curriculum content and testing requirements across a broad spectrum of humanities subjects. The majority of my time is currently spent helping students aged 11 to 19 with History, Geography, Humanities, Archaeology, IB Theory of Knowledge, IB Extended Essays and Oxbridge interview preparation. Using clear communication and custom-designed teaching materials, I aim to demystify the assessment process and set high expectations for student achievement.

I particularly enjoy helping gifted and talented students reach their academic goals, whether these are securing a 13+ academic scholarship, achieving an A* at A2 Level or successfully navigating the Oxbridge admissions process. I also have a strong track record of helping students with exam retakes and covering the study skills required to succeed under exam conditions. My experience covers all the major exam boards in the UK (AQA, OCR, CIE, EdExcel), as well as the International Baccalaureate MYP and DP Programmes, Cambridge Pre-U and numerous specialist scholarship exams.

Outside the classroom I am an avid travel writer and student of languages. My latest book, a travel guide to Angola, was published by Bradt Travel Guides in July 2019. I am currently writing the Bradt Travel Guide to Tunisia. I am also spending my free time learning Portuguese and Arabic, to add to my base of French, Italian and Spanish, as well as to remind me what it feels like to be a student again!
