Libby M
Qualified English teacher
***taking bookings for June onwards only***I am a highly experienced English A Level and GCSE teacher, tutor and examiner. My approach is very kind, thoughtful and patient.

Building confidence in pupils is vital as is ensuring that they understand the work and can thereby express their own ideas and not rely on memory alone. One-to-one teaching is the ideal way to demonstrate...
