Anya

I am an energetic and creative Double First Class History graduate from the University of Cambridge, with a love of teaching and learning. During my time at Cambridge, I was awarded six different scholarships and prizes for academic excellence, including one for the best dissertation on American History across the University. I am also currently a master`s student at University College London (UCL), reading History.

In my spare time I am an avid journalist, contributing widely across political journals as well as culture and arts magazines. As founder and ex-President of Cambridge University’s first-ever Women in Media Society, I am proud to have built and coached a flourishing network of aspiring and established women in media inside of Cambridge.

Availability: Flexible, Monday-Sunday.

Willing to travel: 50 miles

Experience: I have extensive experience tutoring in Oxbridge application advice as well as in essay writing skills/techniques. I have also worked at primary school-level tutoring in reading, writing and maths.

I have the skills and knowledge required to tutor students at primary, secondary, GCSE and A-Level.

For any student to reach their potential, they must have the right mindset and approach to learning. I believe strongly that tutoring is not simply about imparting temporary subject knowledge but is about giving students the necessary study skills and exam techniques required to thrive independently in any area.

Through sharing the skills and methods I have successfully honed and practiced throughout my education, I help all my tutees develop a positive and enthusiastic relationship with learning.

The kinds of tools I provide my tutees with include:

- Mastering Time Management
- Productivity and Focus: ‘Working Smarter, Not Longer’
- How to Take Smart Notes
- Planning the Perfect Essay
- Understanding Mark Schemes
- How to Revise Thematically: ‘Content Blocks’
- Quick Memorisation Tips and Tricks
