About Oettie
I'm a London based creative and foodie with extensive experience in home schooling, private tutoring and educational support. I have a BA (Hons) in English Literature and Latin. As a private tutor I've helped a wide range of students to prepare for 11+ exams or catch up with the curriculum, as well as providing home schooling support during the national lockdowns.
When one of our homeschooling students wanted to expand her A-level curriculum by adding cooking lessons, I combined my experience as a tutor with my passion for food. Although I'm not a trained chef, I have explored plant based food and nutrition as a personal interest for almost 10 years. I have catered for film crews who like most people I cook for, couldn't believe the food was all vegan.
I believe that cooking and eating is a community activity. We can cook ourselves to a healthier, more connected life. That belief is reflected in all my tutoring work. I offer professional, but warm, wholesome sessions that encourage creativity and exploration.

Feel like going vegetarian or vegan, but you don’t know how to start? You’d like to live healthier and high processed meat replacements aren’t doing it for you? About to send a student off to uni and they want to cook more than beans on toast? Looking for a creative, wholesome extra curricular activity? You’re in the right place to get help with all of that. As a passionate plant foodie, experienced cook and home tutor I’m here to get everyone buzzing in the kitchen.
I offer cooking tutoring centered around the food sustainability conversation which is becoming more widespread in light of climate change. In my lessons we explore mainly plant based, seasonal dishes that would be a great staple for anyone who wishes to eat in a more conscious way. Since making this lifestyle choice for myself, a world of culinary creativity has opened. I take inspiration from outspoken chefs for our sessions such as Ella Mills (Deliciously Ella) and Gaz Oakley (Avant Garde Vegan). There is an abundance of plant based recipes in the Greek,Cypriot, Middle Eastern, Italian, Indian way of eating, leaving us with limitless options in the kitchen. Students can start a series of lessons that will cover recipes and methods for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We will start with easy everyday meals, developing kitchen skills and confidence around food. At a later stage we will include some more festive, show stopping dishes that students can share with their families.
Sessions last between 2- 3 hours and ideally take place in the student’s home. They are open to anyone over the age of 14 and can include more than one student (rates will vary). I look forward to working with secondary school students as well as adults who wish to embrace a more wholesome, healthy diet.
Want me to come cook with you! Get in touch now for the delicious and insightful sessions.

Oettie has been an excellent Maths and English tutor for our 11 year old daughter. We moved to the UK from a very different school system in the US 1.5 years ago and she helped our daughter catch up on various subjects, at the same time preparing her for the 11+ exams. Our daughter described Oettie as smart, patient, encouraging, kind and funny, and we found her very professional and reliable. She made the 11+ process very smooth for our family and our daughter felt well prepared with good advice and plenty of mock tests, resulting in her getting into most of the schools she applied to. Oettie is an excellent, and certainly trustworthy, tutor and we are very grateful for her!
Oettie is very engaging and uses different techniques to make learning fun and interesting. My daughter really enjoyed her tuition sessions and her confidence has grown enormously. This was in preparation for 8+ exams.
Oettie has been tutoring both our girls for the last two years. She is very thorough and managed to fill all the academic gaps our daughters had. She teaches from the ground up and makes sure the base of any subject is solid before moving on to the next level. She also helped prepare our older daughter for her 11+ exams. She has a very extended knowledge of English and Math as well as Verbal and Non Verbal reasoning and she is very well acquainted with all the online platforms like Atom, Bond etc and taught our daughter how to approach each question in the most effective way and get ahead on the problem solving. Oettie has definitely been a great help and has made a big difference to our daughters academic achievements. Adding to this, the girls like to study with her and have been taking well to her approach to teaching. I strongly recommend her as a tutor.
Wonderful tutor, who really helped us tremendously with getting our son up to speed for his entrance exams to City of London School. Always on time, encouraging and very effective!
Oettie is a fantastic and dedicated tutor. Oettie prepared our son for the ISEB exams alongside general English tutoring (with dyslexia support). Oettie is methodical in her approach - working through all relevant modules and identifying strengths and weaknesses to make sure that the time spent with the child is targeted and effective. I recommend Oettie wholeheartedly. Having her support took the stress out of the process for our son (and us!).
Oettie's passion for food and cooking shines through everything she makes. I've been lucky enough to try several of her dishes as well as cook alongside her. She has an adventurous, colourful and flavourful cooking style that is naturally healthy but feels like a treat to eat! She's always teaching me new food combinations and techniques and think she'd make a fantastic cooking tutor for anyone passionate in plant based cooking :)
Oettie is a brilliant teacher. She and I cooked together for about 2 hours every other week. She was incredibly kind and patient and very clear in her directions. She brought some really exciting recipes that incorporated a variety of skills and flavour. I learned some very helpful techniques that I now use often and have brought my cooking to the next level. She was very fun to spend time with as well as flexible and accommodating.
Oettie is an incredible and inventive cook. Most of her cooking is plant based and always full of flavour and super delicious. She can cater to all needs and has a brilliant and flexible personality. I hired her to cook on set whilst shooting a feature film and she was brilliant and her gorgeous food and demeanour was loved by all! I highly recommend Oettie, she is great with adults and young people alike! Helen
Oettie is an excellent cook and she has one of the greatest, vibrant personalities! I couldn’t recommend her more, her food and way of tutoring is just amazing!
Oettie is such a fab cook and opened my eyes to different dishes and cooking techniques. She was patient and communicated well and just really helped put the fun back into the kitchen. I would definitely recommend. Who knew vegetarian dishes could be so exciting!
