From the 11+ to a University of Birmingham Application: Why English Matters
Mastering English Language is the key that opens so many doors in Birmingham and beyond. It’s the skill that turns a tricky 11+ Verbal Reasoning question into a puzzle they can solve with confidence. It’s the ability to analyse a poem by a local hero like Benjamin Zephaniah with insight for a GCSE essay. And it’s the power to write a personal statement that stands out, making a compelling case for a place at a top university. It’s their passport to the next step, whatever that may be.

Experienced English Language tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Jessica C
Jessica is really knowledgeable and professional. We loved that she arranged a free video call with our son and us before we booked. Really lovely to meet her and our son was straight away comfortable. She is really knowledgeable on the GCSE AQA English exam and has been a great support to our son so far. Jessica will tailor the lesson to his needs as well as picking up on weaknesses that need more practice. Most importantly, our teenage son is quite animated and enjoying his lessons with Jessica. We could not wish for anything more. We would highly recommend. &

Leigh H
Leigh worked with our teenage son to prepare for his English Language iGCSE. With only a short time before the exam, they quickly developed a constructive rapport. Leigh was quickly able to assess where our son ‘was at’ in terms of his readiness for that exam. Over just a few sessions, analysis and writing skills were imparted and developed that meant our son felt prepared. Moreover, our son so enjoyed the way Leigh worked and his obvious passion for and skills in language analysis, that he chose to continue language analysis sessions just for the fun of it once the exam was over. A comment our son has made more than once after a session is, ‘I just love learning!’ The exam was passed really well – the outcome we hoped would be possible – but more significantly, we are grateful for Leigh’s ability to really draw out and develop our son’s enjoyment of the English language.

Last Year I did not do well in English Language in which I had a Grade 3. With my November resits fast approaching I felt very privileged to have Ihsanur as my tutor. He was able to present lessons in a concise way which helped me understand what went well and what I needed to improve on.
After the November resits I managed to obtain a Grade 4 in English Language AQA. I would really recommend him for those taking the GCSE 2026 because he is committed and dedicated in order to achieve academic potential with pupils. Thanks again Ihsanur for the hard work you do.
