I am an extremely experienced and knowledgeable tutor of English Language and Literature. I have worked extensively with students at all levels, from those struggling with key concepts and skills to the highest levels of academic achievement. I have significant experience of working with young people with different learning styles and neurodivergent backgrounds. I strive to have an extremely individualised and inclusive approach to tutoring as well as offering a reassuring and friendly environment where students can optimise their potential.

I have currently been qualified and been teaching both English Language and Literature for twenty-five years both in mainstream and independent special schools. I have worked for several of the leading exam boards in key roles which support my ability to enhance the learning of students.

I cover predominantly upper KS3 and GCSE English where my expertise in exam technique and subject development allow me to tutor students at the optimum level. I have extensive knowledge of all elements of the English language curriculum as well as the key English Literature texts.

I am extremely friendly, providing a reassuring and adaptable approach to tutoring. I have tutored a huge number of students across the entire ability range. Whether working face to face or online I strive to build a strong working relationship with all tutees and their families. Your child’s success means everything to you, and I can help both you and them to feel fully supported through the tuition process.
