About Áilill
My teaching style focuses on developing critical thinking, imaginative analysis, and clear verbal reasoning. I bring three years’ experience working at the European Youth Parliament as a debate coach and judge, where I trained participants in public speaking and selected candidates for progression to national conferences. Since receiving my TEFL qualification (168 Hours) in 2020, I have taught over 1,000 hours of academic and professional English to young people and business professionals.
I am a current graduate student at the University of Oxford studying History and Critical Theory, with a focus on Women’s Studies. I am also Clarendon Scholar, which is awarded based on interview performance and academic merit to approximately 0.01% of graduate applicants to Oxford. I previously completed my undergraduate degree in History and Political Science at Trinity College Dublin, graduating with First Class Honors. I placed in the top 1% of students at Trinity after receiving the Foundation Scholarship, regarded as Ireland's most prestigious undergraduate award.

**My Teaching Style**
I typically approach tutoring by engaging directly with students’ work. After an introductory discussion in which I assess the student’s needs, I proceed by developing their skills at the level of writing and focused analysis. Across my teaching experience, I have found it most valuable to engage a Socratic method in which the student is encouraged to read their work with a critical eye and become adept at identifying the strengths and weaknesses of any written text or verbal argument. This allows students to achieve progress through a process of strategic questioning and demonstration that does not simply showcase the appearance of advanced writing but enables them to understand why such writing is advanced and how they can achieve a similar quality across all academic assignments. Specifically, I work with students to develop their adaptability of thought, clarity of oral and written communication, precision of analysis, and critical imagination. I take a holistic approach that develops key skills for exam performance, essay assignments, seminar discussions, and Oxbridge interviews.
This approach is not only academically productive but encourages the learner to develop an independent sense of confidence. First and foremost, I believe in a communication style that is clear but gentle. I make it a priority that students feel affirmed, challenged, and respected. This is all the more important because tutoring adolescents and young people can have an outsized impact on their senses of self and the goals to which they aspire. My six years of teaching has allowed me to work with a range of ages and abilities, from young children to senior business professionals and students who present signs of ASD, ADHD, and SEMH. I have also worked with people of many nationalities and am sensitive to both cultural contexts and varied academic requirements.

Áilill was super helpful when it came to walking me through the entire Trinity application process. He assisted me in my personal essay and gave me a perspective on TCD that only a past student could do.
I came to Aillil when I was applying for colleges after my year out. I wasn’t sure what was a good fit for me and I knew I wanted to aim high for a degree I’d be passionate about. After a good conversation and thorough planning, we submitted an application to the Trinity College Dublin - Columbia Dual BA program. I am now in the third year of my dual BA programme and am so grateful to have had support during my application.
Ailill gave me history grinds during the leaving cert which helped me get into film school. Thanks a million !
