I teach in a very individual way, adapting to each student's needs. The first lesson usually involves some assessment of where the student is currently at, and what way of working is best for them. As we continue, I make sure we have regular tests (either formal or informal) so we have a way of marking progression.

He was able to help her to increase her speed and score on the TSA, improve the structuring of her essays and prepare how to address interview questions.

Sean tutored my daughter towards an application to Cambridge for English Literature, primarily helping her with the interview. She said it helped her enormously. I could see she was more confident and had a sense of ease when she went up for them. Thank you!
I think Sean was a big part in my daughter finding a place at Oxford. Her scores went up massively in the admissions test and she found the interview preparation invaluable.
Sean was a fantastic tutor - he helped our daughter achieve excellent grades, and was always a lovely presence in our home!
Sean isa very reliable and skillful tutor. He is patient and exceptional at picking up the issues you need help with.
