Private Educational Practice
Aquinas House is a boutique private tutoring practice led by a former senior school leader with 23 years' experience in independent education. Every programme is designed around a single child's pathway, timeline, and ambitions.

Not an agency.
A personal practice.

I took 23 years of experience in senior school leadership to create a space where education is handled with the discretion and care it deserves. Unlike mass-market agencies, Aquinas House maintains a strictly limited client list to ensure every student receives senior-level oversight.

"The guidance provided was unparalleled. Beyond the academic results, our son gained a sense of purpose and intellectual curiosity that has stayed with him into his senior school years."

— Parent, Knightsbridge

A commitment to intellectual depth.

With over two decades in London's premier independent schools, I have witnessed how the right mentorship can transform a child's trajectory. My practice is built on the belief that tutoring should be as sophisticated as the schools our students aspire to join.

Formerly a Head of Department and Senior Housemaster, I bring an insider’s understanding of what admission tutors are truly looking for—and how to nurture the authentic intellectual spark that secures scholarships.
