Our Tutors
Virginia Maguire read English at UCL, and later went on to work as a lecturer in the English Department of a Thai university for five years. She gained Distinction in her MLitt in English Studies from Strathclyde University and published various articles on sociolinguistics and aspects of Thai culture while overseas. Before joining Westminster Tutors Virginia worked as Director of Studies at David Game College for four years, and she is also the founder and director of Uniprep, which provides specialist preparation for admission to highly competitive universities and degree courses such as Law and Medicine.
Virginia's mother took her A levels at Westminster Tutors, and it is therefore a great pleasure for Virginia to continue the College's long tradition of providing excellent teaching and the personal support which enables students to achieve their academic goals.
