Our Tutors

At Wolsey Hall Oxford, we’re proud of our dedicated, passionate and specialist team of 165+ UK-qualified and highly experienced Tutors. Each Tutor is chosen for their exceptional understanding of and passion for their subject and academic level, as well as their ability to inspire the same enthusiasm and love of learning in their students.

Our Tutors provide detailed, helpful and encouraging feedback on each of your child’s course assignments, to help them grow in confidence, independence, and knowledge of their chosen subjects. Every one of our Tutors comes from a teaching background and has taught in classrooms as well as online, so they're familiar with the pressures and challenges that many of our students have faced in mainstream school settings – meaning their feedback is always personalised, reassuring, and understanding of each student's unique circumstances.

That’s why when you enrol with us, you’ll have peace of mind that your child is getting a flexible, world-class British education, backed by experienced educators who will help them progress at the pace and level they’re capable of.

The role of a Tutor

Our Tutors are here to ensure all our students feel supported academically during their time with us. When you enrol, your child will be allocated a different Tutor for each of their courses and learning levels, ensuring they benefit from specialist subject knowledge and insight. Your child’s Tutors will provide detailed and prescriptive feedback on each of their course assignments, highlighting areas of strength and next steps for development – so your child knows how they’re doing at each stage, and what they can do to progress further.

Tutors can also direct students to additional resources or information if students are struggling with a particular module or topic. They will take the time to understand your child’s interests, passions and circumstances to help them feel connected and engaged with their learning. There are opportunities to meet with your child’s Tutors online to check in and discuss their progress as well.

As our courses are designed to build our students’ independence, you’ll play more of a role in connecting with your child’s Tutors at Primary Level, where they can offer advice and tips to help you support your child’s learning. From Lower Secondary to A Level, your child should be able to engage with their Tutors on their own, or with minimal involvement from you.

What are assignments?

Your child will need to complete an assignment at the end of each of their course modules, to help them reinforce what they’ve learned and test their understanding of subject content. Assignments are not exams and are not graded, and they do not count towards your child’s future GCSE and A Level results – they’re simply a way for your child to apply their knowledge of each module, so they can see how they’ve progressed.

Assignments are submitted through our online student learning platform, and your child will receive encouraging, tailored feedback from their Tutors within five working days. Students can only complete module assignments once they’ve engaged with all the learning content (they may also be required to achieve a particular score on a course quiz).

Getting to know your child's Tutors

STEP 1

Welcome email

Once your child is enrolled and their Tutors have been assigned, they will receive a friendly welcome email from their Tutors with lots of information about their courses, how to work through the different modules, and more. This means you can help your child get their studies off to the best start, without having to figure it all out on your own.

STEP 2

Introduction call

Your child’s Tutors will also arrange individual welcome calls with you, so you can get to know them a little better and they can find out about your child’s interests, hobbies and circumstances. It’s like an informal ‘meet and greet’ where you can connect with each Tutor and ask any questions you may have about the course content and structure.

STEP 3

Course review calls

There are also opportunities to speak with your child’s Tutors during their studies. Review calls are typically held after each assignment (around every four weeks) at Primary Level, and halfway through each course from Lower Secondary to A Level – however, there is flexibility if you’d prefer them to take place at other times. These calls are optional, but many families find them useful for discussing assignment feedback, their child’s progress, and exam preparation for GCSE Level and A Level courses.

I am a self-confessed geek, with a liking for puzzles and popular science. I ran a cypher and puzzle club at my last school and love quizzes, cryptic crosswords and a variety of Science fiction and detective stories.

I was born while my father was on sabbatical in London. My first passport was issued when I was only six weeks old so that he could return to his role as a professor of Comparative Religion in Toronto. When I was four years old, we moved to Oxford, where I have lived, on and off, ever since.

I was always fascinated by Maths and Physics; they became my favourite subjects at school, and so it seemed natural that I should eventually study both for my undergraduate degree. Still wanting to go deeper down the rabbit hole I switched to Applied Maths for my Masters degree.

Looking around for a job, I almost fell (as so many at the time did) into working as a computer consultant. After several years there, working on some large multinational projects, I realised that what I really wanted to do was teach. So I retrained as a Maths teacher – a decision that I have never regretted.

I taught at a large, local comprehensive school before moving into tutoring of small groups and individuals. This has given me a broad experience of students from many backgrounds with differing needs; from students re-sitting foundation GCSE to undergraduates needing to brush up on Maths skills, and almost everything in between. I have taught Secondary Level, IGCSE and A level Maths extensively but also I have drawn on my experience to Tutor GCSE A Level Physics and A Level IT.

Once my daughter was born, I worked part time until she started school at which point I moved to a full time teaching position in a girls’ private school. This proved to be a challenging role; but also cemented my view that teaching is most effective when it is providing the right tools for each individual to learn. I have had a particular rapport with those students who have special needs and have worked closely with their learning support teams to understand and motivate them.

I look forward to sharing my passion for Maths with you and helping you to reach your potential.
