Oscar

Online English and Latin Tutoring

I'm an experienced and passionate humanities tutor with a background in teaching at both universities and private institutions. I specialise in helping students build confidence, develop independent thinking, and master the skills needed for academic success. With a strong foundation in classics, literature, history, philosophy, and languages, I support learners from secondary school through to university level.

Tutoring Experience

I have taught across a wide range of educational settings, including university seminars, one-to-one tutoring, and international consultancy. My experience includes tutoring in English, History, Philosophy, Latin, Ancient Greek, and Academic Writing. I've supported students preparing for high-stakes exams, including IB, A-levels, and university admissions (e.g. Oxbridge), as well as adult learners and international students. My students consistently achieve excellent results and grow in confidence and academic independence.

Tutoring Approach

My teaching is grounded in evidence-based learning techniques. I help students build strong study and metacognitive skills to make their learning more efficient and lasting. I combine traditional approaches—like close reading, note-taking, and Socratic questioning—with the thoughtful use of emerging technologies such as spaced repetition tools, digital annotation platforms, and AI-enhanced study aids. Every session is tailored to the learner, balancing challenge with encouragement and supporting both subject mastery and personal growth.
