Hi, I’m Alfie — a recent Classics graduate from the University of Manchester with a deep love of language, literature, and big ideas. I tutor in Latin, Ancient Greek, English, and Religious Studies. I studied Latin at both GCSE and A-Level (achieving an A in each), before reading Classics at the University of Manchester, where I graduated with a 2:1. At university, I focused heavily on mastering Classical Languages — Latin and Ancient Greek — and even studied at the Novum Vivarium in Rome, a renowned school where all instruction is delivered entirely in spoken Latin. Alongside my language studies, I developed a strong interest in the cultural, literary, and philosophical dimensions of the ancient world — interests which naturally extend into English and Religious Studies. I’ve hosted a podcast with Luke Ranieri, one of the world’s foremost scholars in modern spoken Latin, where we explored topics ranging from grammar to deeper questions about meaning and tradition. I’ve now been tutoring for over a year across various platforms. My teaching style is grounded in curiosity and collaboration: I like to ask open-ended questions and guide students toward figuring things out for themselves. This is especially effective in subjects that require interpretation and reflection, like English and Religious Studies. One thing I often help students with is building confidence. Many pupils — especially in intellectually demanding subjects — struggle not with ability but with a fear of making mistakes. My lessons create a safe space where trial and error is encouraged and where even small wins are celebrated. Over time, I’ve seen this approach transform not just how students perform, but how they think. Outside tutoring, I’m a passionate language learner (I speak French and Italian and am learning Russian) and I enjoy playing guitar in my free time. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to get in touch — I’d love to hear from you.

I have completed 3 years of online tutoring experience with GCSE and IB students; expertise in personalised learning, exam preparation, essay writing, progress tracking, study skills coaching, and building student confidence. International education background with completed both IGCSE and IB programmes enhances adaptability and cultural sensitivity. Strong communication and creative teaching methods to engage diverse learners. My lessons are meticulously structured and fully tailored to each student’s individual learning style and goals, with a focus on helping them achieve top grades such as A* or 7 within a targeted timeframe. I utilize a diverse range of teaching methodologies, including diagnostic assessments to identify strengths and weaknesses, targeted exercises to reinforce key concepts, exam-style practice questions to build confidence and familiarity with assessment formats, and critical discussions to develop analytical thinking. I emphasize consistent progress monitoring through regular reviews and personalized feedback, allowing adjustments to lesson plans that address evolving student needs. With two years of experience tutoring GCSE and IB students across subjects including English, Business, Theory of Knowledge, and Visual Arts, I have developed a keen ability to simplify complex material and foster a motivated, focused learning environment. My approach not only builds academic skills but also cultivates effective study habits and self-confidence, equipping students for sustained success.

I am a passionate tutor who genuinely enjoys helping students succeed. Having been in the same position myself not long ago, I understand the challenges students face and how to overcome them effectively. I specialise in Mathematics, English, Economics, and Business, and I studied (MSC and BSC) at the University of Warwick, where I achieved a First in my first year. Alongside my academic background, I bring real-world industry experience from J.P. Morgan Asset Management and Bloomberg. This allows me to connect theoretical concepts to practical applications in finance, business, and economics — helping students understand not just what to learn, but why it matters. My lessons focus on practical strategies, exam techniques, and high-impact resources that students consistently find valuable. Sessions are engaging, structured, and results-driven, equipping students with tools they can immediately apply in their studies. My teaching approach is personalised and aligned with each student’s school curriculum. I begin by identifying key areas of difficulty, then systematically work through the syllabus to ensure complete exam readiness. Every topic is covered thoroughly and strategically, with a strong emphasis on understanding, application, and confidence-building. This method has proven highly effective in my own academic and professional journey, and I am committed to helping students achieve the same outcomes.
