Tom

Tom studied Engineering at Clare College, University of Cambridge. Before Cambridge he spent five years at Eton College, achieving 10 A*s at GCSE and A*s in Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry at A-level, and learning to master new material quickly and revise efficiently. He also worked at the London fintech start-up Curve, with an interest in software engineering and data science.

Tom has tutored at 13+ Common Entrance level and is keen to help students of all abilities.

Tom’s own studies have always centred on understanding rather than memorisation. In maths and the sciences, knowing why something works boosts speed and accuracy in exam questions and, in the long run, builds the intuition that is crucial in scientific fields.
