Georgina C
Experienced English Literature tutor with excellent results!

Inayat K
Creative English Literature tutor
After achieving the best GCSE results in my schools (11 A*s & 100% in 7 exams), I started private tutoring and now have over 10 years of tutoring experience with many London agencies. My lessons are individually tailored to my students and I ensure that they learn what the national curriculum/respective syllabus expects of them and also stretch them beyond so that they can aim for higher grades. I have also been a Graduate Examiner for a major UK exam board. Scoring 100% in 7 GCSE examinations (including Biology, Chemistry, Physics, History, and Geography) means I have developed methods for not...
