Private English Tuition
85% of my students improve by at least 2 grades
Strong reading and writing skills provide a solid foundation for all other types of learning. With over six years' experience tutoring English both in-person and online, I am here to ensure that all students have the opportunity to develop these skills to the best of their ability. During this time I have supported hundreds of students through their GCSE and A Level qualifications, as well as assisting with learning methods, university entry and overall academic strategy. I have taught students of all abilities with a wide variety of requirements including long and short term tuition, remote learning, intensive holiday sessions and support for dyslexia and processing disorders. I can cater for students of all abilities from Year 7 up to A Level, either in person or online, and for students preparing for their GCSE and A Level examinations, my training with the 3 major exam boards means that I can offer students the best possible advice on exam technique so that they can go into their exams feeling confident that they will achieve the results they deserve.
My Approach
My success in improving learning outcomes is based on an integrated approach that takes into account the strengths and requirements of the individual, and works to build independence and academic resilience. I firmly believe that tutoring is not just about teaching students what to learn but also how to learn. This enables students to mature into confident and motivated learners, supporting their progress not only in English but in all academic subjects.
My service is friendly and highly personalised. I design a personal learning plan in collaboration with the student and their parents and tailor-make resources that are optimally designed to support the progress of your child and nurture their unique potential.
