Libby M
Qualified English teacher
I am a highly experienced English A Level and GCSE teacher, tutor and examiner. My approach is very kind, thoughtful and patient. I believe one-to-one learning is a fantastic way for a student to see quick results, and I regularly see improved confidence levels after only a few lessons with me. Another benefit is, of course, that all lessons can be tailored specifically to each student’s need, and I pride myself on my ability to react and adapt quickly. I am very passionate about my subject and I am always excited to share this with my students. The most exciting part about studying English is t...

I can't thank Louise enough for her care and effort whilst tutoring my daughter. My daughters confidence grew, she went into exams feeling prepared, and was less daunted by the huge GCSE content. Can't recommend enough!

Lynn D
I cant say how helpful lynn has been. My son would freeze in English language mocks with fear.
Lynn has helped to prepare him for his exams, gain confidence in his work and himself.
He lost all fear and came out of his exam with a big smile.
My son is very shy but Lynn made him feel comfortable and relaxed during his lessons.
I cannot recommend Lynn enough.
