About Rhys
I have been working full-time as a tutor for over 7 years, since graduating with a First in Linguistics & Spanish from the University of Oxford. My specialities are Spanish at all levels, Linguistics, and university entrance (including many Oxbridge admissions tests). I have worked with over 100 students: some long-term, some for one-day revision programmes. This has been mostly for Spanish and Oxbridge admissions. This is a mix of one-on-one tutoring (in person and online) and small-group sessions at a revision school here in Oxfordshire. Outside work, I'm a hiker, home cook, and snooker player.

Most of my tuition for Linguistics is one-on-one, with university entrance as the goal. A typical meeting would depend on the particular aspect of our time together. For Linguistics entrance exams, we would look at how to approach questions, what examiners want to see, and plenty of practice with examples from all over the world. For general preparation, we would explore many different subtopics in Linguistics, with the aim of giving students an introduction to the avenues which may be pursued at university. At all times, we would aim to look at as many real-world examples as possible, exploring the beauty of human language in all its variety. I like to think of my tuition style as informal, but thorough. I'm lucky that the Linguistics is one of the most fascinating and under-appreciated subjects in the world, and hope to share that interest with students.

From the first even trial I've had with Rhys, he's really helped me with my understanding of Spanish not only as a language on a stand alone basis, but also the linguistic side of any language. He's helped tremendously in preparing for the MLAT and PRE-U Spanish, and has always gone out of his way to prepare the sessions and kept me motivated. I have ADHD and Rhys knew exactly how to cater the sessions to my needs and to try and get the best out of me. I have grown immensely and he's always been welcoming of any question I have (even the day before the exam at the oddest of times!) There's always been a lightbulb moment with Rhys where I've understood something new with him every time and I cannot express my gratitude enough to Rhys. Thank you, Rhys.
Rhys is genuinely one of if not *the* best teacher(s) I've ever had. He's so kind, engaging and fiercely intelligent but has that rare ability to combing those qualities with getting across ideas to you clearly, preparing thorough teaching materials he himself puts together, and being supremely organised, structuring and planning lessons well in advance. He is a real gem, so thank you, Rhys, for all your help!
Rhys is an extremely helpful tutor, despite my assignment being last minute he still managed to help me in every way possible! Would recommend to everyone! :)
Rhys taught me for a little over a month during the pandemic and my improvement over that time was astounding. He is a very friendly person and knows how to make his students feel enthusiastic about learning Spanish. He is also extremely professional in his preparation and always details his lessons towards what you need to know to be successful.
Rhys was my tutor for the LAT, and I could not recommend him enough! He got to know me and the areas that I wanted to work on in our first free consultation, and afterwards we worked on the basis of me completing preps and past papers before our lessons and then going through them in the lesson time as well as other exercises. For me this was the perfect format, as Rhys has an incredible amount of resources for me to practice on and have a very hands on approach, as well as knowledge in order to for me to consolidate my learning. I would recommend Rhys as well for being incredibly understanding and adaptable- he answered my emails at any time and very promptly, or was willing to change lesson times even at short notice. He was also so friendly and we had fun in our lessons outside of working through LATs.
Rhys is a great tutor. He works on any of our six revision courses we run a year, when he is available and we have the demand. From feedback we have received 100% of Rhys' students think he is a good teacher. He is well prepared, supplying his own worksheets for every individual student, professional and a brilliant to work with. He is a great tutor, with students returning and working with him on future courses.
