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...

Myles M
Myles has been a good step change for my son Max. His previous tutor unfortunately stopped teaching earlier in the year and we found Myles not long after. I think the pace of Myles’ lessons have been good for Max and given him a different perspective. Always understanding and taking Max’s views into account whilst showing him other ways to think about things. Would highly recommend!

Deborah J
We feel so lucky to have found Deborah as our son’s English tutor. She truly made a huge difference—not just in his writing, but in how he feels about the subject. Before working with her, he didn’t have much confidence in his writing. But with her support, that completely changed.
Deborah encouraged him every step of the way and helped him believe in his abilities. He actually started to enjoy English and was motivated to write, which was amazing to see. His essays became more thoughtful and well-structured, and he started feeling proud of his work.
We were so happy with Deborah, and more importantly, our son was extremely happy learning with her. Her kindness, patience, and encouragement meant so much. We’re truly grateful for everything she’s done.

Lonnie Y
Our son Alex has been working with Lonnie over the past few months in preparation for his English and Literature GCSEs, and we truly couldn’t recommend him highly enough.
Lonnie is not only an exceptional teacher but also a genuinely wonderful person. He built a strong and trusting relationship with Alex, which made a huge difference in our son’s attitude toward learning. Alex really enjoyed the lessons and looked forward to each session—something we hadn’t seen before.
Lonnie is incredibly knowledgeable, always well-prepared, and consistently gave his best in every session. He was also very responsive and professional in all communication, which we really appreciated.
We’re very grateful for the support and guidance Lonnie has provided. It’s clear he cares deeply about his students and goes above and beyond to help them succeed.
