Why Strong Higher English Skills Open Doors for Your Child

Higher English is more than just another qualification; it's a key that unlocks future opportunities. The ability to analyse complex texts, from Shakespeare to modern poetry, and build a persuasive argument is a skill your child will use throughout university and their future career. A great grade in English demonstrates they can think critically and communicate clearly, which is exactly what top universities look for.

Hello there, I’m Zara, a second year medical student at the University of Aberdeen with three years of tutoring experience. I offer 1-to-1 sessions designed to build confidence and help students achieve their best. My previous students have hopped up 3 letter grades within 3 months of tutoring them. You can do it too!

Lynn has only been helping my daughter for a few lessons; however, I can already see how much my daughter’s confidence in her writing and analysis has improved! My daughter is now applying the structure and techniques Lynn has taught her to other English essays.

Lee N
Lee has been a great tutor for our 15-year-old son, Leo. He’s really helped him with structuring his essays and breaking things down in a way that makes it much easier for Leo to understand and apply in his school work. What’s made the biggest difference though is Lee himself. He has a really great personality and a relaxed way of teaching that puts Leo at ease straight away. Leo feels comfortable being himself in the sessions, which means he’s much more open to asking questions and having a go. Since starting with Lee, Leo’s confidence with English has grown a lot and he’s actually started enjoying the subject again. The support and encouragement Lee gives has been really valuable for him in preparation for his GCSE's.

Flora I
Flora is patient and takes the time to ensure my child understands concepts properly before moving on. She always comes well prepared, communicates effectively with my son, and explains things clearly. She also takes time to prepare homework assignments and resource materials to reinforce learning. She’s easy to reach and is happy to chat with parents about progress and the ways we can support learning at home. My son enjoys her teaching and is happy to add one more lesson a week with Flora. I’d gladly recommend her to others looking for a solid tutor.
