Thomas graduated with a First in Politics, Psychology and Sociology from the University of Cambridge in 2013, and gained a Master’s with Distinction from Goldsmiths, University of London. At Cambridge he was a CAMbassador, helping run access and outreach schemes, a regional convenor for the Cambridge Schools’ Debating Competition and a volunteer for Pembroke Access.
Thomas has tutored since 2013, first part-time and then full-time. He has worked in schools across South London on targeted interventions, as a senior tutor at a tuition centre and on a wide range of private assignments. He has helped students go from C to A* in A-level Politics, coached a university student to a First in Business Studies and Marketing, and prepared pupils for entrance exams at schools including Haberdashers’, Alleyn’s, Westminster and Tonbridge. He has a detailed knowledge of university and independent school admissions.
Thomas combines passion for his subjects with an approach tailored to each student, and believes that with the right encouragement a pupil’s performance can be transformed. He places particular emphasis on building arguments and communicating them clearly, alongside thorough coverage of the syllabus and exam technique.
