Saga - Oxford tutor






Information About Saga:


Personal Description:

Hi there! I am a recent History graduate from the University of Oxford (First Class Honours), as well as a History tutor with six years' experience, and a self-published author of historical fiction. Helping students truly understand and appreciate learning is one of my chief passions. I want to support you all the way as you take steps towards academic excellence and the top-notch marks you are capable of!



Teaching Experience:

I have tutored face to face in my hometown of Lund since 2019, focusing mainly on History, English, Swedish, and Creative Writing. Most of my work has been with students aged 7-16, but I am highly adaptable to whichever curriculum and age group the student belongs to.



Tutoring Approach:

My approach is very much an individualised one. I firmly believe that no two students learn the same way, and so my aim is always to explore what works best for them in particular. I also strive to make the subject in question genuinely interesting; for example, History as I teach it is the past come to life through critical analysis and intriguing stories, not just a set of dry facts. This is a way of tutoring that I have myself learnt from my professors at Oxford. Finally, I believe in setting tangible and bite-sized goals with each student. That way improvement does not feel like an overwhelming or indiscernible task.
