Camille

English, 7+, 8+, 11+ and Common Entrance

An Oxford English graduate who balanced top grades with semi-professional tennis, Camille specialises in entrance exams for leading London schools, particularly in English.

Camille

Camille graduated from Oriel College, University of Oxford in 2017 with a degree in English Language and Literature. At Putney High School she achieved 11 A*s at GCSE, earning a Sixth Form Academic Scholarship, and A*A*A at A-level, all while competing as a government-funded, semi-professional tennis player on the WTA circuit.

Camille began tutoring before Oxford and went on to tutor full-time after graduating. She has worked with students from KS1 and KS2 numeracy and literacy through Year 7 and 8 English and Maths, Common Entrance and GCSE to A-level English, and has prepared students for 7+, 8+, 11+ and Common Entrance entry to schools including Westminster, St Paul’s and King’s College School. At A-level she specialises in English, History and Classics, and she has a strong interest in Oxbridge preparation.

Camille begins with a light, engaging assessment of each student’s strengths and weaknesses, then designs a tailored programme that she adjusts as they progress. She alternates demanding exercises with tasks that stretch students beyond the syllabus, builds reading lists for humanities students, sets regular mini tests and uses past papers ahead of exams. Results matter to her, but so does widening a student’s horizons.
