Laurence

Laurence graduated from St John’s College, University of Cambridge in 2015 with a First in History of Art, followed by an MPhil on early 20th-century British Modernist painting. He attended Westminster Under School and Eton College, where he achieved A*s in Theology and History at A-level, and won the Sotheby’s Prize for History of Art in 2012.

Laurence first became interested in teaching as a primary school teaching assistant during his final year at school. He has since helped students with Oxbridge applications and A-level humanities subjects.

Laurence tailors his teaching to each student’s pace. For those who find a subject difficult, he breaks it down into clear principles to build a strong foundation. Stronger students are challenged to push their understanding further and think beyond the obvious. He believes students do their best work when they are enthused, so he aims to help them enjoy it.
