As a First Class Honours graduate in Archaeology & Anthropology from the University of Oxford, I offer families an insider’s perspective on what it takes to succeed in one of the world’s most competitive academic environments. My recent experience at Oxford, combined with years of mentoring students from top international schools, means I bring both academic expertise and real-world admissions insight to every engagement.

Today’s elite universities don’t just want strong students, they want intellectually curious, confident thinkers who can thrive in high-pressure academic settings. That’s exactly what I help my students become.

Who I Work With

I work closely with high-achieving, globally minded students and families — from London to Dubai to Hong Kong — who are aiming for the most competitive UK and US universities. Many of my clients come from international schools or bilingual backgrounds, and are looking for a trusted strategic partner to guide them through every stage of the journey.

My Approach

My teaching philosophy is rooted in rigour, mentorship, and strategic clarity. I don’t just prepare students for exams. I help them develop the intellectual independence, academic polish, and personal narrative that elite universities look for.

Every engagement is bespoke and includes:

• Development of critical thinking, debate, and academic confidence

• Deep subject exploration beyond the syllabus

• Personal statement and interview coaching tailored to each institution

• Ongoing feedback and strategy planning for long-term success

• A supportive, high-trust relationship with both student and family
