Information About Nicholas

Personal Description: I recently graduated from Trinity College, Oxford with a degree in English Language and Literature and am now begun the MA in Creative Writing at Bath Spa University. I take my writing very seriously but I also have a passion for teaching, discussing challenging subjects and sharing my passion for learning.

Tutoring Experience: I have taught Oxbridge English courses at my former school, Tonbridge School, as well as working as an Activities Director for The Oxford Prep Experience, a month long academic program for children aged 14-16, based at Corpus Christi College, Oxford.

Tutoring Approach: My teaching style is highly influenced by the tutorial system I experienced at Oxford. Tutorials, an hour of one on one teaching with a tutor, were extremely intellectually challenging and forced one to constantly re-assess ones views but they also were reliant on the genuine enthusiasm of the tutor for the subject in question. I hope to mirror that enthusiasm in my own teaching and develop it in my tutees.
