About Me

I recently finished a PhD in History at the University of Oxford, having previously completed degrees there and at UCL, and was a lecturer at Oxford for a year afterwards. I am passionate about teaching the Humanities to young people as I think they are crucial in addressing many of the problems we encounter today. My aim is to educate in ways that not only lead to success in exams but which are exciting and fun.

Tutor Experience

I have extensive experience teaching small groups and individual students, with particular expertise in approaches to essay writing and exam technique but also aiding student understandings of content. I taught undergraduates in one-on-one tutorials and classes for three years at the University of Oxford, and also have experience teaching students at GCSE and A Level

Topic Expertise

I specialise in university-level tutoring. While my area of particular expertise is History, I tutor in essay writing and study skills more widely - usually in topics across the Humanities and Social Sciences.

Testimonials

When we found Susannah. , the relief was incredible. My son had some unexpected resits and some very unhelpful unsupportive lecturers. He felt lost - didn’t quite understand why he had failed and therefore lost confidence in his ability . Susannah immediately made him feel he could do this and guided him and coached him through the process- giving knowledgeable and helpful feedback to allow him to present a strong essay. His knowledge gaps in the subject were filled and he regained his confidence in his ability. Resits are a stressful time and she really helped him feel calm and confident again. Her guidance and presence were invaluable and he will continue to work with Susannah as a sort of mentor . Thank you so much !!!!! ps Passed!!
