Rebecca B
English Literature Experienced English GCSE Tutor
I inspire my students to think creatively about language and imagery and to visualise literary concepts in a way they understand. I give students practical knowledge about writing techniques and accurate use of language.

Ian B
Inspirational English Literature Tutor
I have taught in schools, colleges and as a private tutor for twenty five years. Whether one-to-one or in a class situation I have developed a teaching style that centres on the individual.

I teach Social Science (Psychology and Sociology) Philosophy and English. My focus in a lesson plan can include work on elucidation of theories, ideas or methods, but also I cover work on writing skills and essay planning as often it is not...

Erica H
I worked with Erica in the months leading up to my A levels , and it made the world of a difference. Not only is she really friendly and makes you feel comfortable, but we also did very focused tasks on things I was struggling with which led to vast improvement . I ended up moving up more than a grade and got a really good result . I really recommend Erica for anyone struggling to improve and feeling like they are stuck without moving forward

Giorgia O
Giorgia is an excellent teacher, and we are so lucky to have found her. She is flexible and able to adapt her teaching methods to suit the student, but at the same time direct about what can be achieved. She is excellent with neurodivergent students, and is able to inspire, encourage and motivate them to want to do well for themselves. She has managed to improve my daughter's results by 2 grades, and a large part of it is due to her dedication compassion and empathy. She is also a very lovely individual.
