About Isabelle
Hello I’m Isabelle. I am a PhD student at the University of St Andrews. In 2019, I was a Visiting Scholar at Yale University. As a committed scholar and academic, I most enjoy sharing my love for visual culture with other enthusiastic Art Historians. I completed my BA at the University of St Andrews, where I achieved a first-class degree and was awarded the O. E. Saunders Prize given to the most outstanding student in Art History. My dissertation won the Long Dissertation Prize in the subject, achieving the highest grade in my cohort; on the recommendation of my tutors, it was put forward for the national Association of Art Historians Dissertation Prize. I then went on to do an MA at the Courtauld Institute of Art, specialising in British Modernism. Whilst maintaining a strong academic trajectory, I gained relevant professional experience in the field, completing internships at Buckingham Palace, Rosebery’s Auctioneers, Bonhams and ARCADE contemporary art gallery. Based on these experiences, I am able to give students specific careers advice and facilitate internship opportunities through contact with these institutions.

I have tutored for five years working with education concierge A&J Education, specialising in GCSE, A-Level, undergraduate and postgraduate level Art History tutoring. I have a vast knowledge of both Western and Non-Western art histories, covering a period from 1280 – present day. At university, the dissertation component of the undergraduate and postgraduate degree is often the most challenging task for students. Writing a thesis right now during the COVID-19 pandemic is even more stressful, especially without access to our professors and library resources. During this time, I am offering online tutoring sessions and essay editing to those who are drafting their final year dissertations this summer. Having won the Long-Dissertation Prize for the most outstanding piece of original research at St Andrews, I am able to help students with primary archival research, teaching them how to use the resources at archives as this skill, although expected from their course supervisors, is not explicitly taught. I further help the students with structuring, planning and editing their thesis.

Perfect! Working with Isabelle has been an absolute pleasure. She is dedicated, extremely knowledgable, and efficient, and has offered me unwavering guidance throughout the process of writing my dissertation, making it very enjoyable. Her prompt and insightful suggestions have consistently helped elevate my dissertation to the desired standards and I am genuinely grateful for her precious support!
Perfect! Isabelle was a fantastic tutor during my final year of studying Art History, which was impacted by Covid-19. The bulk of our time was spent working on my dissertation, which she completely eased my nerves about. She delivered insightful and impressive insights during sessions and always made time for thoughtful editing and check-ins despite her busy schedule. I could not have graduated with a First class degree without her support! Couldn’t recommend enough.
Perfect! Excellent!
Perfect! A true professional with deep knowledge and passion for the subject. The lessons are always very insightful and productive. Isabelle is an excellent teacher who is able to stimulate critical thinking. Very helpful additional material/notes - it is clear that Isabelle takes time to research the topic in question to help the student in full. Very thorough and responsible, always well prepared for the lessons.
- Kat is an extremely capable and dedicated student, who always brings passion to our lessons. She is able to think critically about the artworks we discuss, and grasp tough concepts in the discipline. Overall, a pleasure to teach!Isabelle's response :
Perfect! Isabelle is an excellent tutor! She worked with a friend of mine who needed help and my friend is absolutely thrilled so far. Isabelle is very knowledgeable in the entire field and her appointments at the Courtauld, St Andrews, and Yale in the US make her an efficient tutor and Art History mentor. Can highly recommend.

Perfect! Isabelle’s teaching is excellent. She is a very warm and organised tutor who always prepares the lesson plan and comments for her student before and after class. In addition, she is very knowledgeable who helped my application and basic theory a lot. I will keep learning from her, indeed she enriched my summer!
