English Language Comprehension, Literature and Creative Writing
In this engaging class, students will explore classic and modern literature whilst developing their own storytelling skills. Through interactive discussions, fun writing exercises, and personalized feedback, students will learn to analyze texts, enhance their vocabulary, and express their creativity. They'll dive into imaginative worlds, build compelling characters, and craft original stories, all while improving their reading comprehension and writing techniques. Students will be expected to complete a homework task weekly. The pieces will be marked and given feedback, alongside a discussion about the piece itself. This class intends to improve the students understanding and knowledge of English Literature and Creative Writing, through fostering a love of the texts given, and empowering young writers to confidently share their voices.

Fatima
GCSE English Language and Literature Tutoring 1-9.
English Language and Literature are compelling and multifaceted subjects that offer a deep dive into the art of communication and the power of storytelling. Engaging with these subjects allows you to explore the richness of the English language and the diverse forms of literary expression. English Language and Literature have always been my strongest subjects and have always peaked my interest, it would be an honour for me to allow you to also develop an interest in such a wonderful subject.

Anna
English IGCSE/GCSE/ Verbal Reasoning/ Poetry/ Creative Writing
I can aid students from preschool to IGCSE/GCSE level in English, Verbal Reasoning, and essay writing. Having achieved an A* in both English Language and English literature, I am passionate about teaching children how to love the subject and excel in their examinations. I have tutored English in the past to both preschool and IGCSE pupils, offering a dynamic and interactive teaching style that helps nurture a child's love for English and creative writing. I have access to the poetry pamphlet taught in most schools for IGCSE, but can access whatever syllabus is needed for a specific exam. I also have created several worksheets for students who are learning English as their second language. Having studied French, German, and Latin at school, I am aware of the etymology of many words which will allow students to connect meanings across their language to understand the literature fully. In my free time, I write poetry and novels and can share many teachings I learnt on a creative writing course I undertook in 2016.

In short, put an end to the fear of writing! Isn't it difficult to be consumed by the desire to write your project and not succeed in doing it? Break forever the insurmountable wall that prevents you from writing today. It is a matter of combining improvements in form with improvements in substance. For this, the sessions can for example take place according to your needs as follows: a) Comments / proposals on the text that you will offer me b) Writing exercises based on a statement. c) A series of precise and pragmatic recommendations and their application through style exercises. Whether it is a novel, an essay, song lyrics, various texts, a biography or simply a report for professional or school purposes, it is about offering you elements personalized pedagogy: - Study your text - Build text, song lyrics etc - Calmly polish the style - Research and develop your lexical fields - Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others All this by combining theory and practice: Writing work from exercises then as part of a personal project.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. À la carte: evaluated and adapted to each personality.

Poetry Writing for Beginners and Intermediate Writers
Would you like to learn how to write poetry or develop your poetic craft with the assistance of an experienced teacher? In this class, we'll work on shaping new drafts whilst learning about international poetic forms as well as producing some free verse work. We'll edit our material and, if we have multiple sessions, we'll put together a brief collection! We will explore the world of the senses, memories, and connect to language in a new, profound way. My course is not prescriptive, and we'll meet your voice wherever you're at right now. You'll be taught by a published poet with work experience in the UK and North America. I've taught Creative Writing to university students at a world-leading school, and worked with younger audiences, and I'm happy to work with a variety of forms in English. I studied for my MFA in Creative Writing at the University of British Columbia, and won a scholarship as the strongest poet in my cohort.

Creative Writing Mentoring - helping you to progress in your creative life!
Are you thinking of writing but having trouble how to start? Have you started writing but seem to have blocks that are stopping you continuing what you’ve started? Or do you feel shy about sharing your creative writing and want to take the next steps? I’ve successfully helped mentor people on their journey into creative writing and in the classes we will take the journey looking at ways to help overcome obstacles that might be stopping or blocking your progresses, or helping you to continue writing you may have started. We will do this with a mixture of looking at your work and thinking of strategies to help you overcome any potential blocks. Although I have a particular interest in writing for plays, (I am a playwright and published poet), this class is for also for those wanting write creatively.

Hywel
Creative/Drama Writing Tuition (available to students of any experience level)
Is there an idea you can't quite get off the ground, or are you curious about how to foster an underlying voice? I'm proud to offer tuition in the realm of creative writing, be it for the page, stage or screen, to people at all stages of their artistic journey. My personal tuition philosophy means that every session is curated for your individual needs and interests, and I will consistently request feedback to ensure no time is wasted on material you don't find enriching. After graduating from the University of Warwick with a first class degree in English and Theatre, and securing one of eight places for writers at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School this year, I want to extend my passion into helping others discover their linguistic flair; tackling the whole spectrum from crafting character, to constructing dialogue and beyond. I've written a dozen plays in the last year alone, so consider myself well acquainted with the pitfalls and complex methodologies of this often tricky art. I hope to use these classes to help you develop more reliable writing practices and overcome the dreaded writer's block once and for all.

English courses (all levels) by a university graduate in English language and literature (Bac +5)
After a master's degree, two years of Erasmus at the universities of Cambridge and Edinburgh, and years of experience as a private teacher and within the national education system, I wish to continue to transmit my passion for this language and its culture. Flexible, I adapt my lessons according to what the student and parents are looking for. Thus, the lessons can take the form of informal conversations or on the contrary follow a very clear trajectory punctuated by grammar and phonetics exercises, for example. I particularly like to rely on documents close to the student's interests and, if possible, allowing him to discover various aspects of the culture of the English-speaking world (cinema, painting, literature, history, etc.).
