About Me
I have been providing bespoke tutoring since 2019. My background is in Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic and English Literature, but I support a range of subjects including:
- Academic English
- Dissertation / Essay support
- Old English / Old Norse Literature
- Academic / Study Skills
- English Literature
- Creative Writing
- Oxbridge Applications and Interview Skills
- University Applications
I believe in a flexible, personalised approach for every student. I take the techniques and knowledge of my time supervising and lecturing at the University of Cambridge to provide a rigorous framework, but match it with compassion and encouragement. My students grow not only in subject knowledge but in life-long confidence.
"I received an offer from Keble College this morning to read English at Oxford. Thank you for your guidance and mentorship throughout the […] program last year as well as the mock interview—you were invaluable in preparing me for the application process."

Client Reviews
Kimberly, I am not happy with today´s class, in which Xanti spent the whole time doing a paper, with no contribution from you. In this instance I appreciate he didn´t have time to do his homework this week, but these sessions are for you to be teaching him, not being silent while he does a paper with almost no feedback at the end.
