About Sean

I was Head of English and Drama at the London School of Russian Ballet for two years, responsible for delivering the whole curriculum, and I have tutored English for 13 years.

Over 100 of my students have achieved top marks in English: grades 8–9 at GCSE, and A* or A at A-level.

I have taught all the major set texts on the main UK syllabuses. Most of what decides marks in English is essay technique: planning, building an argument from the text, and using context and critics without losing the thread. It is a skill, and it can be learnt.

I trained at drama school and work as a theatre director, which helps with set plays in particular: we look at how a scene works on stage as well as on the page.

Most of my work is with London's top private tutoring agencies, and I have been flown abroad several times to tutor individuals and groups.

I have an enhanced DBS check, renewed every year. I am happy to send you a copy.

My experience:
- 2 years (2019–2021) as Head of English and Drama at the London School of Russian Ballet
- 6 years (2013–2019) teaching at Westminster Tutors, a London sixth-form college
- 4,000+ hours of tutoring and 500+ students, mostly with London's top private tutoring agencies
- 3 years as an admissions examiner for an Oxford college

My education:
- University of Oxford: Philosophy, Politics and Economics (BA, First Class)
- University of Oxford: Philosophy (Masters)

About the lesson

I always tailor my lessons to each individual student. I do not come in with a pre-prepared plan for our first lesson: I see where you are, how you like to work, and then we go from there.

Before our first lesson, I offer a free 10-minute intro phone call.

After the first lesson, if you want to proceed, I will send you a plan of study. If you'd like, I will send you written feedback after every lesson.

I test my students regularly, so we have a concrete measure of progress, and all of my tutoring is geared towards the exam.

Sean tutored my daughter towards an application to Cambridge for English Literature, primarily helping her with the interview. She said it helped her enormously. I could see she was more confident and had a sense of ease when she went up for them. Thank you!

I think Sean was a big part in my daughter finding a place at Oxford. Her scores went up massively in the admissions test and she found the interview preparation invaluable.
