My Experience
I have always had an interest in History, and discovering more about the past, which has only developed as I have further specialised my level of study. My decision to continue to postgraduate level was based upon my love of the subject, in particular, the ability of modern historians to critique and revise traditional historical interpretations and challenge preconceived ideas of society.
This will be my first experience tutoring in a professional capacity, however, previously I have tutored children studying for the 11+ and I also taught English in a Vietnamese school for 3 months so I do have experience teaching.
I am a very hard working and organised individual, and being able to share and teach my interests to other students is something I know I will enjoy. I pride myself on being approachable and would be a very involved tutor focusing not just on helping students process information but the importance of them theb being able to sophisticatedly structure this in an essay format.
As a graduate of Oxford, I would also be able to tutor any applicant undertaking the Oxford application and History admission test - the HAT. I also wrote a blog offering advice on how best to succeed at the HAT which is attached to my tutor profile.
