English Literature: GCSE, AS Level, A Level tutoring

"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go"- Dr Seuss

I'm a passionate and creative English Literature tutor with six years of experience teaching students ages 10-26.

I take pride in my ability to plan well-structured and engaging lessons that aim to both garner excellent results and form a passion for language and literature. I ensure a syllabus is well understood whilst a wider understanding of texts is taken on board through captivating and creative teaching methods.

I like to engage with parents to update them on their child's progress to ensure each client feels they're spending money wisely. I have a lot of experience in this process, having been a nanny/tutor for three years I formed a good understanding of the importance of parent engagement. I see myself as very personable and a good communicator which helps lessons flow naturally.

I specialise in preparing students of various stages for their exams and tailor my lessons accordingly to meet each need.

Please do message me if you have any questions, I look forward to working with you!
