Found Oliver through a recommendation after my daughter struggled to get her argument off the ground for the Philosophy category. She's a strong writer with good vocabulary but her teacher said that she struggled to go beyond A Level quality.

Oliver's approach was well structured but listened and adjusted based on her needs. First session he showed the flaws in the argument she was making, and that there wasn't as much substance to it as she thought. He pushed her to find the genuine tension in the question rather than restating the obvious with citations. The difference between her draft one and final submission was significant enough that I actually questioned whether it was still her work (it absolutely was; I watched the process).

He's clearly read widely beyond his background and knew the marking tendencies for her category specifically. Turnaround on written feedback was less than 24 hours, comments were direct and didn't waste her time.

Would use again for her younger brother in two years without hesitation.

Oliver guided me through my John Locke essay when I was panicking close to the deadline. I haven't used SuperProf before and I wasn't sure about the quality of the tutors. But I'm really glad I reached out to him. He helped iron out all the sentences I wasn't sure about, added new sources, pointed out flaws in the arguments and restructured the paragraphs to fix the problem. The end result was way better than I could do on my own and compared to other tutors with the same level of experience and background, the price was reasonable.

Oliver is currently tutoring me for my PPE application. His tutorial style approach has helped me to not only improve my confidence and eloquence in interview settings but has also been a great help in vastly improving my knowledge base in all three areas of: Politics, Philosophy and Economics.

Oliver has been such a great help and is always available in between sessions via email to answer any questions that I have. His passion for the subject shines through and has helped me to improve mine.

I couldn’t recommend Oliver highly enough. He is such a great help in the application process and generally for improving knowledge. Oliver is always prepared and provides relevant and interesting resources from articles to books to Youtube videos. From the beginning I found him polite and patient and he is great at explaining new concepts.

Oliver guided me through the Oxbridge Application process. He creates a learning environment where you can learn without the worry of getting things wrong. His lessons were well-planned and I enjoyed how thought-provoking and engaging each session was. His genuine interest in my development was clear to see and I can't recommend him highly enough.

Olive tutored me in philosophy in preparation for my university applications. He is incredibly good at walking students through complicated ideas and simplifying concepts. He was also attentive to my ideas and engaged me in conversation to solidify my understanding.

I met Oliver a few months ago, when I started preparing for my Oxford exam. He was recommended to me as one of the best people who could help me get past the TSA. After working with him, I can genuinely say that there is no other person I would have wanted to be my mentor.
From critical thinking questions to essays about morality and political doctrine, Oliver had always offered me the best advice in terms of writing, structuring my ideas and choosing the best rhetoric. We talked about political theory, social trends in our current society and I eventually learned a lot from him about Philosophy concepts.
As a future PPE student in the UK, I can sincerely say that Oliver is the best person who influenced my thinking and decision-making process. His patience for revising essays, his promptitude in meetings and dedication to explain new lessons would be a perfect fit for any student wishing to get some help.
