About George
I am a recent Oxford graduate, who read Ancient and Modern History at BA level. This niche course took an incredibly broad view of history, allowing me to study such disparate subjects as Alexander the Great and his early successors (333-302BC), and modern non-state actors in Mexico (2006-2014). As such, I have experience in engaging not only with history (as it is traditionally conceived) at a high academic level, but with classics and international politics as well. I received a high 2:1 in my finals, despite the difficulties caused by sitting the exams during the coronavirus pandemic, and attained a strong 1st (72) in my thesis, which might be considered a more representative statement on my attainment, as it was submitted prior to the crisis reaching tipping-point in the UK. At A-Level I had an unusually scientific background, taking History (A), Biology (A*) and Maths (A), whilst achieving an A in AS Physics. Outside of more formal studies, I also read an extensive amount of 20th century classic literature and philosophy, and am teaching myself Spanish. On top of this, I competed in Blues Gymnastics while at Oxford, have a black belt in karate, and travel as much as possible (with an especial focus on the middle east). As I hope all this indicates, I have a broad range of interests which inform a holistic approach to education and suggest a genuinely inquisitive and engaging nature. I look forward to encouraging my love of learning in others, as well helping them to understand the material they are studying.

As a tutor, I strive to replicate the most beneficial elements of the Oxford tutorial system which I am highly familiar with. Similarly to Oxford tutorials, my sessions are generally long-form conversations on a specific topic, which aim to tease out the key issues whislt developing the tutee's skill in analytic argument. In these sessions I keep the conversation on track, and aim to address tutee blindspots made obvious in the session or in submitted work, but there is also significant leeway for the student to direct conversation towards their interests or what they feel less confident on. I believe this system of tuition is highly meritous, as it builds confidence and prepares younger students for the higher levels of education. In this repect it is particularly advantageous to students approaching university admissions tests and interviews.
