Growing Confidence and Critical Thinking Through English Literature

English Literature is more than just books; it builds vital analytical skills. Imagine your child in Leeds confidently dissecting a Shakespearean play, articulating their unique interpretations, or crafting compelling arguments for their essays. These skills not only open doors to higher education, perhaps at a university like Leeds Beckett, but also foster deeper empathy and a lifelong love of stories.

David J
Experienced English Literature Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

Madiyah A
Passionate English Literature tutor
Hi, I’m a third year Medical student with experience tutoring privately over the past two years. This tutoring took place online, so as someone who believes in the importance of learning visually, I have adapted to making easily understandable explanations using the screen share option. This constitutes much of my teaching style; I am an advocate for understanding concepts, rather than just learning and regurgitating mark schemes, and I believe I ensure this by drawing diagrams, asking questions to ensure the student is engaged and doing practice questions or scenarios. A typical session c...
