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 1:1 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.

Tutors, Tutor Services and Support


I have always been interested in how children learn. Indeed, my work experience placement at the age of 15 was spent in a Special School observing the various approaches that were used to ensure individual pupils had the very best provision. This led me to a four-year teacher training degree, graduating in 2001 with a QTS with English qualification.

Since then, I have been teaching mainly across the KS2 age range in Blackpool, Lichfield and Walsall. I played a big part in the development of PE and School Sport in Blackpool between 2002 – 2006, and then led Science, English and Maths in Lichfield, Dr Samuel Johnson’s birthplace. I love connecting with pupils and their education. In every class I have had, there are pupils who love or hate Maths or English or Science.

But there is always a way to spark their interest and to promote enthusiasm for every subject. And I take pride in enabling children to learn in their own way.

When I am not working, I love playing squash and going for a run. My Squash partner beats me regularly, but we somehow manage to have a really good battle on the court each week! I was never a runner growing up and even in my 20s, but I took it upon myself to get a bit fitter as I entered my 30s, and found myself running the London Marathon in 2017! It was the biggest challenge of my life, but the sense of satisfaction was incredible.

I am excited to be working with Wolsey Hall Oxford because of the time I will be able to spend with individual pupils, discussing and guiding their learning. I look forward to welcoming you as your Tutor, and to joining you and your child on your learning journey.
