Vetted Tutor

Personally Interviewed

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge. They have extensive tutoring experience with a track record of success, helping students achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Experience

I hold a BA in English with Sociology (2001) and earned my teaching qualification soon after. With over two decades of teaching experience, I’ve spent the last eight years specialising in English Language and Literature, particularly at advanced levels. My roles as an examiner and educator in diverse UK and international schools have equipped me with the tools to prepare A-Level students for academic excellence and future studies.

Tutoring Approach

My A-Level English tutoring is student-focused, starting with an in-depth assessment of each learner’s strengths and areas for growth. I tailor lessons to their unique needs, ensuring they meet their academic goals while fostering critical thinking and analytical skills. By encouraging reflective practice and inquiry, I empower students to take ownership of their learning and excel in exams and coursework.
