English with an Oxbridge Tutor (Cambridge PhD, MPhil, Supervisor, Assessor)
من 403.98 AED /س
I offer individually tailored lessons in English, drawing on my extensive experience researching, teaching and assessing the subject at the University of Cambridge — where I have for the past five years of postgraduate research (PhD, MPhil) provided instruction and dissertation supervision to undergraduate students, as well as assessed applicant entrance examinations. In addition to being able to teach modules within literary, linguistic and cultural studies (particularly within the period 1830–Present), I am also capable of imparting and improving students' critical, analytical, reading and writing skills more generally, all of which can be transferred across subjects and be of aid with extended pieces of coursework, assignments and examinations alike.

من أنا؟
Over the past couple of years at the University of Cambridge, I have specialised in English, undertaking a PhD and an MPhil. Earlier, I attended Utrecht University, completing a BA Hons in comparative European literatures, linguistics and languages which also included internships at the Universities of Sheffield and Heidelberg, where I worked on archives in English, German and Dutch. In addition to literary and linguistic studies, I have regularly also crossed into art, history, politics, philosophy and related disciplines, including as part of research, editorial and other roles at Cambridge University Press, Edinburgh University Press and Amsterdam University Press.
Tutoring Experience:
At Cambridge, in addition to my own postgraduate research, over the past almost five years, I have also provided instruction and dissertation supervision to a number of first- through to final-year undergraduate students (predominantly in English Studies, but also extending into Comparative Studies), as well as assisted with assessing and moderating applicant entrance examinations and interviews (including the institution's proprietary CELAT and CMLAT). Outside of the Cambridge supervision system, I have taught and assessed a number of independent adult, postgraduate, undergraduate and secondary school students through various educational initiatives (such as the Cambridge Summer Schools, Friends of Youth, Sutton Trust and numerous others). Privately, I offer individually tailored tuition, as well as aid with critical, analytical, reading and writing skills through a number of platforms like this one (among them perhaps most extensively First Tutors, which aims to provide not only school- but also university-level tuition).
Tutoring Approach:
As my work has long been cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural, I can offer individually tailored lessons within a number of subjects in the arts and humanities, along with aid with critical reading, analysis, and writing skills. For those interested in university-level instruction, my postgraduate specialism is in English language, literature and related cultural, social and political contexts of the modern and contemporary periods (that is, 1830–Present), so I can teach within these areas up to especially advanced levels (including for MA and BA dissertations). For those interested in less specialised university-level instruction, or earlier stages of education, I can also offer assistance within all areas I have a postgraduate or undergraduate background in, including additional periods within English Studies (1500–1830), Germanic Studies (particularly 1830–Present, but including 1500–1830), Slavonic Studies (particularly 1830–Present, but including 1500–1830), and areas within political, social and cultural studies, philosophy and history (all potentially up to BA level, depending on the particulars of the course). Because academic skills are so transferable across the humanities, and because my own background is quite broad, over the years, I have been able to assist students in lots of diverse disciplines, including those reading for degrees that do not immediately seem especially related to my own (among them, for instance, Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Oxford, International Relations at UCL, and Law at LSE).
I have particular experience imparting and improving students' critical, analytical, reading and writing skills, all of which can be transferred across subjects and be of aid with extended pieces of coursework, assignments and examinations alike. I assist regularly both at and outside of Cambridge with a wide variety of academic, critical and creative pieces of coursework and independent research (including the occasional PhD dissertation; numerous academic manuscripts, editorial and publishing briefs; MA dissertations and papers; BA dissertations, papers, portfolios and assignments; A-Level EPQs; IB EEs; NEAs; and more). I am also perhaps more capable than most of assisting students from educational backgrounds outside of the UK in adapting to the UK context (having, at this point, been educated across four different educational systems, including the British, which is quite unique in the European context; the German, which is more prototypical of European approaches; and the Dutch, which has served as the foundation for and still has much in common with the American 'Liberal Arts' approach).
Apart from subject- and skills-based instruction, I can also offer help with applications (including to university, school and scholarship programmes) and examination and interview preparation (including for Oxbridge, RG, Ivy League, LERU, and other competitive institutions), having had experience not only marking entrance examinations and interviews, but also having had the entirety of my own studies fully funded through a number of competitive academic awards (including scholarships awarded by the Cambridge Trust, Le Bas Fund, Utrecht Trust, and others).
Tutoring Availabilities
I am available for appointments online (through Teams) and in person in Cambridge (depending on location). I can work very flexible hours around my schedule, especially when working online (from early mornings until late evenings on a number of days throughout the weekdays and weekends) and am also open to inquiries from those who require a more unconventional approach (whether last-minute appointments, late-night availabilities, or other unconventional circumstances often arising from abrupt and imminent deadlines). Please note that, because Apprentus operates on a commission model, all lesson payments must go through the platform.
