Hi, my name is Mads! I am currently attending the University St Andrews, studying for an MLitt in Intellectual History, which is essentially the history of learning and thinking. I recently graduated from the University of Warwick with a first class BA in Modern History. I’m a friendly and approachable tutor, excited to share my love for learning. I teach subjects I have studied previously and still integrate into the focus of my degree, so I continue to study them now! I love animals, board games and books, and look forward to sharing my knowledge and passion for my subjects. A Levels: History - A* Government and Politics - A* English Literature - A GCSE: English Language - 9 History - 9 English Literature - 8 Biology - 8 Physics - 7 Chemistry - 6 Maths - 6 I’m extremely passionate about sharing my love for these subjects and helping others to understand them. History has always been a passion of mine, and helping people to think critically about the world around them is rewarding, especially when it comes to the ideas and books that have shaped our modern world.

I also teach Geography, Economics, and Business Administration, offering students both strong academic support and confidence-building strategies. I’m passionate about helping students break down difficult ideas, improve exam technique, and achieve grades they didn’t think were possible. What I Specialise In 🎓 English Language (AQA Expert) • Paper 1 & Paper 2 structure and timing • High-level analytical writing • Understanding writers’ methods • Model answers, mark-scheme breakdowns, and strategies to jump a grade quickly English Literature • Of Mice and Men, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, A Christmas Carol, An Inspector Calls, Poetry • Essay structure, theme analysis, key quotations, and exam-ready paragraphs Science (Biology, Chemistry & Physics) • Clear explanations of tricky concepts • Memory techniques for content-heavy topics • Exam practice focused on command words and application Humanities & Business Subjects • Geography – physical & human geography, case studies, exam technique • Economics – micro, macro, diagrams, and real-world application • Business Administration / Business Studies – planning, marketing, finance, exam writing 🌟 Success Stories Here are a few examples of the progress my students have made: • GCSE English Language student: improved from Grade 4 to Grade 7 in 8 weeks through structured practice and targeted feedback. • Biology student: moved from Grade 5 to Grade 8 after focusing on exam command words and simplifying complex processes. • Chemistry student: gained confidence with calculations and improved two grades by developing step-by-step problem-solving methods. • English Literature student: went from writing short paragraphs to producing full, high-level essays, eventually achieving a Grade 9. • Geography student: improved exam timing and case-study recall, boosting their mark by 25%. Parents regularly tell me their children feel more motivated, more confident, and more prepared after just a few lessons. My Teaching Style⭐️ • Friendly, patient, and clear explanations • Lots of exam practice, model answers, and personalised feedback • I teach students how to think like examiners • Strong focus on confidence, planning, and understanding why answers score marks • I tailor lessons to match each student’s ability, school curriculum, and goals 🎯 What Students Can Expect With Me By the end of our lessons, students typically: • write higher-level answers with confidence • understand exactly how to hit the mark scheme • improve grades quickly and consistently • feel motivated and supported • learn efficient revision and exam techniques 📩 Looking Forward to Meeting You Whether your child needs to boost confidence, improve grades, or push towards top marks, I’m here to help.
