About
I believe passionately in the transformative power of education. Over many years I have developed extensive experience working as a tutor and I support my students according to both their needs and their aspirations. I enjoy working with students of all ages to help build their confidence, improve their study skills, and equip them with effective revision techniques. I love working with young people. No two students are the same and I am experienced in adapting my teaching methods for different ages, abilities, and learning styles.
I work with students aged 7-18 and take great pride in creating fun, innovative, and stimulating lessons. I specialise in History and also tutor a variety of other subjects including English, Maths, French, and Religious Studies. I am experienced in helping students prepare for a range of entrance exams as well as GCSEs and A-Levels.
I am skilled in bringing out the best in my students and aim to instil a love of learning that will endure beyond a tutoring session. I also encourage my students to take ownership of their learning; it is an immensely rewarding feeling to see them fired up about pursuing their interests independently of our lessons.
Always willing to put in the extra work to support my students, I am hard-working, patient, and persevering.
“Alice is an outstanding tutor. She helped our daughter get the grade she needed and won the prize for most improved at English in her A-Level year group which was nothing to do with the teachers at school. Best of all her passion for the texts rubbed off on our daughter making it a pleasure for her to learn.” - A-Level English Literature
“I just want to say a huge thank you because I’m not sure I could have achieved this result without all your assistance, support and patience. Those few weeks you spent tutoring me were a huge game changer in helping me get to grips with key principles and ideas – the work we did on structure was particularly helpful. Essentially I just want to let you know that your tutoring was deeply appreciated and I’ll never forget your help; I am super grateful.” - A-Level History
"I had Alice as my tutor for History for three years from year 9 to when I finished my GCSEs. She was always upbeat in lessons and excited about all things History related. She explained concepts extremely well and helped massively in my achieving a 9 at GCSE for History, couldn't recommend her more!!” - GCSE History
“Alice has been a great tutor for me! I was reluctant about getting a tutor because I’m very shy. However, after just a few sessions I felt very at home and comfortable around her. She’s honestly such a helpful tutor and a genuinely nice person to be around. I would definitely recommend her!” - GCSE English
“Alice really helped to give my daughter her confidence back. They built a good rapport quickly and Alice was very patient and supportive. This has hopefully set my daughter up for success as she starts her GCSE course.” - KS3 Maths
“You really did make a big difference to our son. His History has improved enormously since he started working with you.” - 13+ History
“Our girls certainly couldn’t have been better prepared for the English paper. Thank you so much for being a terrific tutor. You have really inspired a great love of English in both of them and given them a wonderful platform to build on.” - 11+ English
“Alice instantly tuned in to the needs and gaps of our son's learning (especially in English) and started stretching him with her demanding yet warm, witty, personal style. Throughout her tuition with our son, Alice enabled him to cover new territory in Maths and unlocked his creativity in writing, challenging him throughout when he didn't do it for himself. Thank you, Alice!" - 11+ English and Maths
“My daughter’s teacher said she has seen a big improvement in her Maths and also in her confidence in general…and the credit is due to you, thank you so much for helping her. I really don’t think we could have done it without you.” - KS2 Maths
