About Sydney
I am a recent English graduate of Trinity College, Cambridge (Double First, ranked top 10), about to begin an MSt at the University of Oxford, funded by a Clarendon Scholarship. I bring direct, firsthand experience of the Oxbridge admissions process from both sides: as a successful applicant myself, and through supporting others as they prepare their own applications, including editing and proofreading personal statements for Oxbridge entry and delivering a seminar at Harvard University's Department of Continuing Education on university admissions to Oxbridge and the Ivy League. My broader teaching experience spans English (Language and Literature), French, Philosophy, and History to A-Level/IB students, and I currently work as Academic Coordinator at Oxford Summer Courses. Having been the recipient of multiple university awards, including the Gould Fund Prize for best exam results in my cohort, I combine strong subject expertise with a genuine understanding of what Oxbridge admissions tutors are looking for. Originally from the Geneva region of Switzerland, I am a native French speaker and have elementary German.
