    Fun and creative teacher of English

    I've been teaching since I was 16 years old, and there's nothing more fulfilling than when a student gains the confidence and skills to unlock their learning. I know exam syllabi can be dreary so my aim, always, is to work beyond those constraints to find an individual approach that really makes the subject sing for you or your child. My teaching style is Socratic, and very much centred around developing skills and techniques that students can use both to achieve success in their exams and to carry forwards into other aspects of their lives.I have over 1,000 hours of tutoring experience and have...

Annually, I work as an English Literature examiner for GCSE and, therefore understand what an examiner looks for in an answer. For this reason my students achieve or exceed their target grades. In 2022, I acquired a Master's Degree in English Literature and I have since worked full-time as an online tutor.

Craig A
English tutor
My 10-year-old daughter started having lessons with Craig about 4 weeks ago. She was very reluctant to have a tutor when I first proposed the idea. I thought I would have a hard job on my hands to get her to attend. To my delight she has embraced the lessons due to Craig’s engaging style of teaching. She ends every lesson with a big smile on her face. In just a short space of time her confidence has increased, and she is enjoying her learning experience. She can’t wait to demonstrate what she has learnt when she gets back to school. This is a great turnaround in her attitude a short space of time. It’s great how Craig is able to keep her attention on these online sessions. Personally, I wasn’t a hundred percent convinced that the online format would work, but it does. Craig also sets her homework to do in between lessons which is tailored to her specific needs. He always provides feedback at the end of each lesson and is quick to respond to any queries.

Liz is a calm and caring tutor. She is very approachable and only after one session my daughter is much more focused. My daughters confidence has certainly been boosted. I would not hesitate to recommend Liz. Many thanks.
