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.

Ian S
Ian is a brilliant English tutor. He took the time to understand my son's struggles and difficulties and quickly got a feel for where he needed support. He has been fantastic in helping him work through these challenges, improve his English and prepare for his exams.
Ian gives a really helpful overview of each lesson, provides clear feedback and sets homework that is manageable and achievable. My son has additional needs, so finding someone who understands him and knows how to support him is really important to us. He genuinely enjoys his sessions with Ian, which says a lot, particularly as he has struggled with school and learning in the past.
Ian is always punctual, reliable and well prepared. I really appreciate everything you're doing to support my son, Ian. Thank you for your patience, understanding and encouragement. It really does make a difference!

After getting a grade 4 in English language our son decided to resit the following year hoping to achieve grade 5. Charlotte was absolutely brilliant in helping him, she gave him angles and consideration's he wasn't aware of and constructive feedback on work undertaken. He has now achieved a grade 6. I am absolutely certain that the sessions he had with Charlotte you made the difference, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to improve their English grade. Thank you so much.

Elandra G
I started taking tutoring lessons about a month or two before my a level, as I wanted to be able to gain insight of how to achieve a better grade when I had initially been panicking English was not my strongest subject.
Luckily, I was able to have my weekly lessons with Elandra, who patiently tutored me and catered towards my ability. Her experience with English as well as knowledge on what examiners are looking for allowed me to achieve a grade A in english language.
I highly recommend these lessons to anyone who is feeling nervous or unsure with how to boost their marks.
