About Benedict
Hi, I'm Ben. I'm a third year undergraduate studying Geography at the University of Cambridge. I have plenty of experience tutoring and study buddying. Working repeatedly with seven students in the past year alone. I typically offer study-buddying sessions of six hours per day, working with students to prepare for upcoming examinations or assessments. I find these longer sessions allow much more scope for intellectual development and allow a more personal, and therefore inspiring, relationship between myself and the tutee. I am also happy to offer one-off or repeat short sessions either online or in person.
I can help with all GCSE subjects and with Geography, History and other essay-based humanities at IB and A-level.
At school I achieved 11A*s at GCSE and 45/45 in IB. However, I never believed that I was particularly academic and achieved far beyond my expectations, both at GCSE and in Sixth Form. I always felt alienated by the rigidity of school exams and often struggled to find the focus in my revision. My teaching style reflects this, and I like to focus on increasing the confidence of my students and encourage their broader intellectual progression. I am careful to not spoon-feed and prompt my tutees to think for themselves.
Outside of academia I enjoy music of all genres, art, drama and outdoor activities. I am eager to encourage all my students to find a positive work-play balance, and enjoy hearing about, and even joining in with, their favourite pastimes.

"Ben was great to have around and fitted in to our home way of life immediately. He was very polite and easy going and had an upbeat, cheerful manner. He was a great motivator and made our son believe that he could do well in his exams. Thanks to Ben, he did."
"Ben is a first class example of a serious young man, who cares about things, wants to do his best and our son learnt a lot from him – not just about work. The outcome was that our son achieved straight 9s and 8s in his GCSEs and we all feel that Ben’s influence was hugely instrumental to this result – so does our son."

We employed Ben as a revision buddy for our son during the Easter holidays before his GCSE’s – Easter 2019.
Ben was great to have around and fitted in to our home way of life immediately. He was very polite and easy going and had an upbeat, cheerful manner.
He was a great motivator and made our son believe that he could do well in his exams. Thanks to Ben, he did.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ben and would be happy to give more information to you on what a nice and trustworthy young man he is.
