Why work with The Cambridge Circle?
I founded The Cambridge Circle to provide highly personalised academic tutoring and admissions guidance. Every student works directly with me, ensuring consistent support tailored to their individual strengths, challenges and ambitions.
A key focus of my university admissions guidance is helping students identify courses and universities that best suit their academic strengths, interests and future aspirations.
My aim is to build lasting relationships with students and families, providing the dedicated support and encouragement needed to achieve their full potential.
My Teaching Approach
Drawing on my experience at the University of Cambridge, I have developed a teaching style influenced by the Oxford and Cambridge supervision and tutorial models, which emphasise personalised academic guidance, intellectual curiosity, independent thinking and active discussion.
Rather than simply delivering information, I encourage students to engage critically with challenging concepts, ask questions and develop their own reasoning and problem-solving skills. This approach allows me to identify gaps in understanding, adapt lessons to individual needs and encourage students to think beyond the syllabus.
Each lesson combines this personalised teaching model with structured examination preparation, tailored revision resources, homework and constructive feedback. My aim is not only to improve academic performance but also to develop students' confidence, intellectual curiosity and ability to think independently.
I believe that a genuine understanding of a subject goes far beyond memorisation, and I strive to create an engaging and supportive learning environment where every student can reach their full academic potential.
