James

I was a John Colet Academic Scholar at St Paul`s School, Barnes, where I achieved 4A*s in English Literature, History, Economics and Maths. In History A2 I achieved 100% and in Economics and Maths 99%.

I achieved 11A*s at GCSE in English Language, English Literature, Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, History, Geography, French, German and Drama.

I have recently graduated from Durham University, where I achieved a 1st in English Literature and was awarded a Vice-Chancellor`s Scholarship for Academic attainment.

Outside of academics, my main interests are playing rugby, football and tennis.

I started tutoring in my gap year between school and university and I have gained lots of experience tutoring students for A levels, GCSE and 11+ exams - in addition to the feedback visible on my profile I have further references available. One thing I`ve found really rewarding is engaging students who wouldn`t respond as well to their teacher or an older tutor, and helping them to achieve their best results.

Before I begin tutoring it would be necessary to let me know which exam board you`re with or which schools you`re applying to, as well as your particular area of focus, so I can ensure lessons are well-prepared and productive.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: In addition to over 5 years of tutoring experience, I am a qualified tennis and rugby coach, so have experience working with children of all ages.
