From Analysing Poetry to Writing with Power: Why English Language Matters
Strong English skills aren't just for passing exams. They're about understanding the world and finding your own voice – just as Motherwell's own Liz Lochhead has done through her powerful poetry. From crafting a compelling personal statement for an application to the University of Glasgow, to clearly communicating ideas in a future career, mastering language builds a foundation for life. It's the key to analysing information, building an argument, and telling their own story with confidence.

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.

Ihsanur R
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.
