About Phoebe
Hey, I'm Phoebe! I love working with children and young adults to help them reach their full academic potential and deal with the stress caused by exams. Having completed my GCSEs in 2018, A-Levels in 2020, and finishing my undergraduate degree in June 2024, I understand the toll exam preparation and stress can take, and also the effort required to maintain ongoing high effort for multiple months in the build-up to exams. I am also very familiar with the newer GCSE system (grades 9-1), and think my recent experience of the exams will really help in guiding the way I teach. My commitment to helping others with learning and revising History, in particular, is shown by the fact that I set up and ran a GCSE History revision club when I was in year 12. This was my own initiative, and I gave over a lunchtime every week to helping year 10s and 11s prepare for their GCSEs, for free! The students I worked with have said they really benefitted from this additional help, and they all achieved great results. Please see the 'about the lesson' section for my academic qualifications and modules studied.

I will focus my teaching around the needs and points of difficulty for the student, especially when approaching exams, as it is important to gain clarification on areas of confusion rather than brushing them under the carpet. Asking the student questions from perspectives which they may not have considered is a great way of probing what they know, as it makes them think about whether they really understand something fully, or have just memorised the information which has been presented to them. I am happy to teach up to 1.5 hours - I think beyond this makes focus difficult for the student (from being on the receiving end!). I am happy to discuss if longer sessions would be beneficial, though! I have previously tutored one student for A-Level sociology, who jumped from a C to an A. At school I ran GCSE History Revision Club, where I worked weekly with GCSE History students to go over the materials they were revising for exams, and helped with exam technique and preparation. I have also just finished my final exams in my Ancient and Modern History degree at Oxford University (Oriel College). My academic achievements are as follows: A-Level: A* English Literature, A* Sociology, A* Psychology, A History. GCSE: 8s in English Literature, English Language, Maths, Physics, Religious Education, and History; 7s in Spanish, Chemistry, and Biology; a 6 in Computer Science, and an A in Resistant Materials. Undergraduate degree in Ancient and Modern History, where I achieved a 2:1. In GCSE History (AQA), I studied: - Germany, 1890–1945: Democracy and dictatorship - Conflict and tension between East and West, 1945–1972 - Britain: Health and the people: c1000 to the present day - Elizabethan England, c1568–1603 In A-Level History (AQA), I studied: - The Tudors: England, 1485–1603 - Democracy and Nazism: Germany, 1918–1945 - Tsarist Russia (coursework, in which I achieved 36/40, the highest mark in my year group). In A-Level Sociology (AQA): - Education with Theory and Methods - Crime and Deviance with Theory and Methods - Beliefs in Society - Families and Households At university, my topics so far have been: - Gender History - Art History - Art under the Roman Empire AD 14-337 - Roman History 46 BC -AD 54 - European and World History 1000-1300 - Ancient Greece 650-479 BC - The Romance of the People: The Folk Revival 1760-1914 - Disciplines of History (historiography) - British History 1330-1550 - Britain from the Bomb to the Beatles (British History) 1945-67 - A thesis focusing on the association between women and hygiene in the media of the 1920s and 1930s. PLEASE NOTE that I will be abroad from the start of August to early September 2024. Beyond this I currently have no time constraints! I look forward to hearing from you!

Phoebe honestly saved my Sociology A-Level, could not recommend her enough! I enjoyed the subject but wasn’t too fond of my college teacher as his methods weren’t engaging enough for me, and so I began to fall behind at the start of Year 13. When I started with Phoebe, we created a schedule for what needed to happen before exams and had weekly sessions tackling the topics I was struggling in (mostly Research Methods and Beliefs). These sessions were HUGELY beneficial and far more engaging than college lessons. Phoebe used lots of her own work from her A-Level Sociology notes to help me with structure and material, which I would pick apart and also use to revise specific Sociologists. The powerpoint's were always very informative and clear but never overwhelming, and she would send me the material after each session to use in my own revision time which was so useful but also motivated me to revise on my own. We also got on really well and clicked from the very first session which was lovely and just made me feel comfortable and able to be honest with my abilities as I wasn’t afraid of being judged for not understanding certain things at all. I was absolutely thrilled on results day to find that I had received an A in Sociology after I was expected to get a B or C! Anyone looking for a tutor should definitely consider Phoebe, I could not speak more highly of her.
