About Thomas

I was educated at Stowe School where I won the McElwee Travel Award for my extended essay on Ukraine's transition from founding member of the Soviet Union to an independent state. I used the resulting grant to fund a ten day trip to Kiev to explore this theme. I spent my gap year working as a teaching assistant at Regent's International School Pattaya, a British curriculum boarding school in Thailand. My role involved aiding students across a range of subjects, including English and Maths, through Key Stages 1 to 3 and GCSE. I also assisted with the IB Theory of Knowledge course. This experience inspired me to pursue a career in education. I went on to read Philosophy and Religion at the University of Sheffield where I graduated with an Upper Second-Class Honours. Following university, I obtained an Erasmus grant to train as an EFL Teacher at a language school in Spain. During my time in Spain I have taught at a private language school and a local high school. In addition, I worked as a Teacher Coordinator at a top language camp last summer. More recently, I have been focused on assisting IB students with their TOK assignments and 11+/pretest exam candidates. In terms of my approach to teaching, I always seek to build a friendly rapport and highly supportive environment in class from the outset. Whenever a student encounters difficulties or feels overwhelmed, I ensure that they feel encouraged and able to succeed. I feel it is vital that tutorial programmes are designed to be as personalised and inspirational to the learner as possible. For this reason, I incorporate the tutee’s interests and aspirations into the lessons whenever relevant to the learning content. My main passions are music, travelling and skiing.
