Jonathan

I am a recent Law graduate who studied at the University of Cambridge. This followed degrees in International Relations at an undergraduate and Masters level from the University of St Andrews. I am currently training to become a Barrister.

The combination of these disciplines has provided me with a thorough grounding in the main principles and developments of law and politics, both in the UK and the international system. With a passion for both the theoretical and practical issues of both subjects, this has provided me with a wealth of expertise, whether from an academic or vocational perspective.

Throughout my experience I have learned that there is not only one route to success, and therefore my tutoring style follows this approach. I will therefore adapt my guidance to the individual needs of students. I find that this approach enables me to strategically target the end goal, while providing a supportive and approachable learning environment throughout the process.

My services are extremely varied. These include:

- exam and essay writing techniques (including analysis, evaluation, and revision advice)
- application guidance (including UCAS forms, Oxbridge preparation and job applications)
- interview preparation (including advocacy techniques, presentation, and mock interviews)

I am friendly, interested and interesting, and wish to show students their full potential in a relaxed yet ambitious environment. I try to bring youth and relevance to teaching, making the subjects more interesting to learn.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of further assistance.
