Kader (tony) B

I have been tutoring English Literature for the last 25 years.

I have in particular come to understand the value of sharing learning objectives and success criteria with children. Knowing exactly what is expected and how they can achieve allows children to focus more clearly on tasks.Progression needs to be planned for, so that as children work and explore at their own pace, there is always something else ready to move them on and take them further in their learning. I also believe that differentiation and meeting varied learning styles are key to effective teaching and learning. Work should be set at an appropriate, but challenging, level. When I prepare...

Sofia has been an amazing tutor consistently supporting me in my current English studies. I am so grateful to have such detailed advice and constructive criticism as it has consolidated and deepened my textual understanding and essay structure. Lessons are always enjoyable,engaging, and informative, further instilling greater confidence in my work. As a result, I feel my skills have significantly improved and I am more confident in my work than ever before. I genuinely look forward to lessons and the support Sofia has given me from personal essay feedback to revision resources in exam periods, all contribute to my growing confidence and ability in English.

Hetty F

Hetty is brilliantly thorough and focused. Our son likes her as she is making him feel at ease on a topic that can be a little intimidating at times. He sees her enthusiasm and she conveys it naturally which in return gets him engaged far more than usual. Her method is gentle but keeping the kids in check with regular communications and follow ups. She is a great tutor…

Jessica B

We were very happy with the consistent manner in which Jessica tutored our son during the two years leading to his GCSE exams. Our son was at a 5 and 6 for Eng Lit and Eng. He ended up achieving an 8 and 9, respectively. Our son was encouraged by Jessica throughout his learning period. Jessica was always on time, quick to respond to messages and available to reschedule the lesson times when needed. We highly recommend her. Thank you very much Jessica!

She also worked tirelessly in improving my daughter's written form so she could display her arguments more effectively. She was kind and supportive and instrumental in her exam success. Thank you

Sonia tutored my daughter in Year 11 for the full year leading up to her GCSE's. She made the subject lively and interesting, breaking down topics and texts, so my daughter could understand and engage with them more easily, helping improve her writing and understanding of both English Literature and Language.
