Fun,tutor who tailors to each students English tutor
Hi my name is safiyyah and I’m currently studying optometry with an integrated master. During A-Levels I studied biology, chemistry and psychology. The reason why I chose optometry to study and be as my career path is because optometrist is an essential role in the health care system. I also enjoy learning about different eye conditions which can be used to detect issues in visual health and how eye examinations can be used to detect different health issues such as diabetes , eye tumours and pressure levels. I have been tutoring GCSE students for two years and A - level students for a year, the e...

Suha R
Expert English teacher English English
Hello! I'm an experienced English tutor with a passion for helping students succeed. I first discovered how rewarding tutoring can be when I worked with a Year 10 student who was struggling with unseen poetry. Over time, we built their confidence through guided analysis, practice questions, and open discussion and they ended up achieving a grade they never thought possible. Moments like that are what keep me inspired as a tutor.My teaching style is collaborative and student-centered. I create a safe, supportive space where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and growing...

Elizabeth A
Elizabeth is awesome! —her love of English is completely infectious and she has been fantastic with my daughter. She pre-plans and tailors each lesson to her student’s needs; her organised approach produces clarity and structure which has drawn out quality writing. We came to her with an obscure book that’s not on the regular curriculum and Elizabeth dived straight into reading it so she could provide complete coverage! We then discovered that Elizabeth has the incredible ability for supporting research projects (EPQ and beyond), enabling our child to work independently and develop their own thinking, without our involvement. Our daughter is incredibly strong in her stem subjects and we wanted to ensure her writing and analysis skills would be equally developed. Elizabeth has provided exactly this— She naturally breaks things down in a way that makes everything manageable while maintaining depth. She draws out real analytical thinking—encouraging my daughter to think more deeply, challenge ideas, and develop her own voice. If you’re looking for a tutor who is enthusiastic, knowledgeable and has great impact, choose Elizabeth!

Georgina B
Georgina has been fantastic throughout my son’s final exam preparation. From the very first lesson, she showed great care and professionalism — always asking what Jason needed and preparing materials accordingly. Her lessons are clear, encouraging and perfectly structured. We couldn’t be happier with the results and have already recommended Georgina to other parents. She is an excellent tutor and we would not hesitate to use her again!
