Alice A
English Tutor - Making learning memorable
* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*
- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...
- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.
- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.
- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study....

Carole G
Professional English tutor
Hi, my name is Carole. I worked as a primary school teacher for 19 years and I have been tutoring children from reception to year 8, mainly online, since February 2020. I have worked with many children, helping them to achieve success in SATs, school entrance exams or to gain increased confidence and enjoyment of their subjects in school. I had some recent feedback from a parent, stating that their child had "gone from being scared of maths (and trying to hide it by saying maths is boring) to loving it!" Some of my current students have worked with me for several years, continuing after primary...

Nathalie B
Nurturing English Tutor
I have a BA (hons) in Primary Education from Oxford Brookes University. I have 13 years teaching experienceteaching children from Foundation Stage to Year 6. For many children, school can be a challenging environment to learn in. This is why I feel that tutoring can be a really positive tool to encourage a pupil to unlock their potential. I aim to make my sessions personalised to your child's needs and to also create an environment where the pupil feels comfortable enough to challenge themselves and realise their potential. As much as possible, I like to include games and creative ideas to engage...

John H
Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Nadeem A
We are incredibly grateful to have found such a wonderful English tutor for our son. Before starting lessons, he struggled to stay engaged and lacked confidence in his abilities. However, thanks to the tutor’s patience, creativity, and genuine passion for teaching, everything has changed.
The tutor has a unique way of making lessons fun, interactive, and tailored to our son’s interests. Instead of seeing English as a chore, he now looks forward to every session and even practices on his own without being asked. His confidence in reading, writing, and speaking has improved significantly, and most importantly, he has developed a real love for the subject.

Iman D
My son hasn't had the best experience in English at school and his grade is predicted to be several grades below his other subjects. We are just 3 sessions into tuition and Iman has really helped steer him back on course. He has been patient, knows exactly how to help my son, and I am really impressed that he will take the time out of our sessions to mark any practice questions my son has sent him and offer feedback. I really like how he has clewrly explained exactly what examiners are looking for in responses. I'd happily recommend Iman, particularly if you or your child needs boosting to a passing grade. My son is very happy with his tuition and so am I!

Sophie is wonderful! I've progressed from achieving a 6 in literature, and being quite stressed about it, to a 9 and really enjoying the subject. I look forward to our lessons, and she's incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about english, as well as knowing how to appeal to examiners. She's also especially good at working to your level, and tailoring your lessons to your needs.
