Cambridge PhD & Tier-One Journalist Teaches History, Politics & Essay Writing Skills

As the historian who supervised Theo’s Master’s dissertation, I was highly impressed not only by his academic strengths but also by his excellence as a communicator both orally and in writing. Impressive, too, is the enthusiasm that he brings to all he does. There are few who have such mastery of both English and French. He has extensive experience as a university tutor, and I am sure that he excels as a teacher – responsive to the needs of students – just as in all else that he does.

I know Theo‘s work as a journalist, which is dynamic, thoroughly researched, and deeply original. I’ve since come to know him also as a friend, who is notably kind and generous. He has a detailed knowledge of a wide range of subjects, through his experience as a screenwriter, his expertise as a historian, and the work he has done for the think tank the Henry Jackson Society. The consequence is he is knowledgeable about a wide range of subjects, from mid 20th century American politics to contemporary British prison reform. We collaborated on an article together—not an easy thing to do. The process was fun and relaxed and the result was one of the most successful articles I’ve ever written or co-written.

I can highly recommend Theo as an outstanding tutor, having taught alongside him as undergraduate supervisor at the University of Cambridge. I have also recommended Theo to international education providers who spoke very highly of his professionalism and his ability to tailor his instruction according to his students’ needs.

Theo is a kind and warm man who is deeply intellectual. I could not recommend him more highly.
