Imogen T
Experienced English tutor
I have been teaching for twenty-seven years on and off, and aim each session at the particular student. I therefore work patiently with the students, focusing on their areas of need, working together through problems on the topics they struggle with until gradually they gain the ability and the confidence to work through them on their own.I also use past or specimen papers when exams approach, to give students the experience of what the exam will actually be like.Sometimes the lessons start with the student bringing some work that they need help with, or else requesting the topic they wish to look...

Michael B
Friendly, enthusiastic English Tutor
I absolutely love what I do, and channel that enthusiasm within each of my lessons. I believe a child can very easily see if a teacher is passionate about what they are teaching, which is why I believe only those who absolutely love their profession should teach. I want to provide the most engaging and challenging lesson for myself, because I hold very high standards for my quality of work, but more importantly, for the child. I want a child to leave each session safe in the knowledge that they have learnt something new that day.I like to approach each session differently, learning what interests...

Charlotte R
Giving English tuition that je ne sais quoi
For over 8 years, I have worked with, and currently work with students of a wide range of ages, levels, and abilities, to achieve their goals. I have excellent experience with AQA, Edexcel, OCR/CIE & Eduqas exam boards. From my own experience I think it is important to follow the tutee's needs, and work on those first. I always try to follow the student's lead and tailor sessions as much as possible. For all students I will always try to provide a balanced well-rounded session with a main theme or objective for the session.However, I do like to let the lesson flow and follow your learning speed...
