KRISTINA MURKETT

I am an English and History teacher, private tutor and freelance writer. I studied English at Oxford before training to become a teacher through the Teach First programme. I have since worked at two of the top independent schools in the country and I now freelance for a number of publications. I have written op-eds for The Independent, The New Statesman,  The Sunday Times, The Spectator and UnHerd; travel features for The Times and Insider; investigative features for Stylist and Lady Science; film critiques for Little White Lies and The Quietus; and educational pieces for The English and Media Centre, TES and Schools Week. I have also written copy for educational companies and YouTube channels including Thoughty2, MyTutor, Simply Learning Tuition, Scholato, Bonas MacFarlane and Think Academy UK, and I have also appeared on BBC Newsnight and GB News.
