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.

Emsal A
Simply speaking, Emsal has transformed my grades from 5 and 6 in English Language and English Literature in Year 10 to grades 8 and 9 with his patient, kind, and easygoing character and method. Not only does he have a great personality as a teacher, but also is highly skilled and capable of teaching these subjects, giving useful tips and improvements as well as higher knowledge and context to access excellent grades. More importantly,, Emsal helped me develop my interest towards English which I had not previously enjoyed, allowing me to commit to homework tasks between lessons so I could receive feedback and gradually improve my analytical or prose writing style. Overall, I fully recommend Emsal as a GCSE English Language and Literature tutor as he is experienced, affable, and improved my English capabilities.

Carla J
The first time I spoke to Carla, I knew were were in safe hands. She is warm and supportive as well as being extremely professional and knowledgeable. We only worked with her for a short time, but she very quickly identified an issue that was holding my son back, and she boosted his confidence so that he has felt much more prepared going into his GCSEs. I recommend her very highly.
