Chess tutoring alongside potential academic help for ages 16 and under in London

Theodore has been somewhat of a rock to me throughout my university application. Through our school's peer-tutoring system, he gave me invaluable assistance in preparing for my Oxford History aptititude test (which was a success). I am a bright student but was struggling to get to grips with a couple of topic areas and my strategy for essay structuring. Theo was an immeasurably kind and patient tutor and friend to me, and imparted his knowledge and techniques skilfully but never with condescension. Our lessons together were always dialogues rather than lectures, and with his talent for empathy and understanding, he patiently built my confidence as well as directly tackling my problem areas. For these reasons I would heartily recommend him as a tutor.
