Gus

Gus graduated with a First in English from Trinity College, University of Cambridge in 2017. He is a writer who freelances for national publications in the US, UK and Ireland, and has extensive experience in copywriting and editing, including academic material for school learners.

Gus has tutored in person and online with established agencies, schools such as the British School in Monaco, and by referral. He has helped students gain places at schools including Westminster, City, St Paul’s, Latymer, King’s College School Wimbledon and Merchant Taylors’, with particular depth in 7+ to 13+ and especially 11+. He also teaches GCSE, A-level and IB English across the major exam boards, Drama and Theatre Studies, and Philosophy, and has co-run theatre workshops for students in London and at international schools. Over 90% of the students he has seen through to their final exams have met or exceeded their targets or won a place at a school of their choice.

Gus builds confidence through a personalised development of knowledge and skills. He draws on his journalism to support non-fiction writing and strong essays, and on his creative writing to inspire students to read and write more deeply.
