About James

With Latin, I have a rather unconventional background. I am not a classicist by training, but I have studied it to an advanced level and use it frequently to inform my creative writing and teaching of biology.

I’m interested in making all students adopt a lifelong approach to learning and growth. I teach English literature & language, Biology and Latin. I also teach Chemistry and Maths. Beyond teaching, I have training in intentional peer support, via a mental health charity. I have taught in pro-rata contracts for GCSE students at a secondary school. I also teach international students, according to different time zones.

About the lesson

I am passionate about the intersection of classics and natural sciences. Therefore, I often tutor in a way that stimulates creative and critical thinking.

I teach the OCR and Cambridge syllabi for GCSE/A Level. I also have many years of experience in helping students attain the standard expected from Common Entrance/CASE/13+ entrance exams for leading independent schools. I also teach adult learners.

I tailor my lessons according to the student’s goals and needs. I striveto make the syllabus as relevant to their lives as possible and I believe in holistic development, as well as academic success. In my lessons, I help students learn how to be more precise, support them through past paper levels of difficulty and help them make the subject their own.

James is an outstanding tutor. My son always comes out of his lessons feeling enriched and he has guided my three children and different stages of their life - 13+ at a British independent school and also to sophomore year, when we began to move countries. He manages to always link the curriculum to current affairs. Each of my children have different needs; one is too relaxed, the other is too harsh on themselves. James was able to guide each of them with ease and has taught them several subjects ranging from English to IB Biology. We will miss him greatly!

An incredible tutor. I've gone from hating English to loving it. I always enjoy his lessons. Some of them have been challenging, but it's so rewarding. James has been there to guide me across every stage of my educational journey. I've just finished my first public examinations and never have I felt more confident. Thank you, James!
