Private English tuition with experienced tutors in County Durham.

I wanted to take an opportunity to Thank Eileen for working tirelessly with my daughter in preparation her for GCSE English. Eileen took an effort to get to know my child, her interests, building on her strengths and working on weaknesses. Eileen planned each lesson to cater specifically to my daughter’s needs and her tight schedule, as well as making the subject as interesting as it can get. Within a short period of time Eileen familiarised my daughter with the structure of each paper, went through each question in detail, showing what the examiners are looking for and set home task for each lesson. It was definitely very helpful that she had discussed what information my daughter should include and then she marked her work, giving pointers how she could improve her answers. Not only that it helped my child to structure her own knowledge, but Eileen showed her how to interpret a topic from different angles, at the same time it enriched her outlook. I really appreciate that throughout the lessons she encouraged my daughter to consider different points of view but also stay true to her own experience and try to write using these as it sounds more genuine and authentic. Overall, we are very grateful and would highly recommend this tutor.

Ms Louise is an excellent tutor. Although my son first language is English, he has been writing in an unstructured, unrefined and crassed maners. Ms Louise, in a short period of time, has managed to rectify my son’s English. He now writes in the smooth, flowing and fluent style. Thank you Ms Louise for your assistance. I highly recommend Ms Louise to any students wishing to improve their writing skill.

I am pleased to provide a reference for Sonia, who has been an invaluable tutor to my son, Ashton, throughout his preparation for his GCSE English Language exam. From the outset, Sonia demonstrated a remarkable ability to tailor her teaching approach to Ashton’s individual learning needs. She took the time to understand his strengths and areas for improvement, creating a structured yet flexible lesson plan that consistently motivated and challenged him. Her expert knowledge of the GCSE English Language curriculum, coupled with her engaging teaching style, helped Ashton build confidence and achieve a deep understanding of the material. Sonia’s passion for English and her genuine interest in her students' success are truly evident in every session. She has an excellent ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and approachable manner, making even the most challenging topics accessible. Whether it was refining writing skills, improving his reading comprehension, or preparing for the exam's more specific requirements, Sonia consistently provided Ashton with the tools and techniques he needed to succeed. Her patience and encouragement fostered a positive learning environment, allowing Ashton to thrive. She was always willing to go the extra mile, providing additional resources and offering constructive feedback that helped him refine his skills. As a result, Ashton felt more confident in his abilities and was better equipped to approach his exam with the necessary knowledge and strategies. Sonia's professionalism, dedication, and warm approach make her an outstanding tutor, and I highly recommend her to any student seeking support in English Language. She has been an instrumental part of Ashton’s academic journey, and I am confident that her tutoring has set him up for success in his GCSEs and beyond.

My son is finding the sessions with Lucy really helpful. He finds her friendly, supportive and approachable. After a handful of sessions he is already feeling more confident in his approach to English Lit, especially his ability to know how to interpret questions and form a written answer.
