Why Strong English Skills are Key for the 11+ and Beyond
Strong English skills are the foundation for success across all subjects. For the 11+, this means mastering verbal reasoning and tricky comprehension tasks. Later, for GCSEs, it’s about being able to analyse a quote from 'Macbeth' or structure a persuasive essay. These are the skills that help your child communicate clearly and think critically, opening doors to the best local sixth forms, top universities, and future careers.

Hello! I have two years of private tutoring experience and I’m a friendly, enthusiastic tutor wanting to help students achieve the best grades possible.

I have worked in the schools however over the last six years I have been a teaching assistant for two of those years, then moved on to covering classes and then moving onto teaching in an unqualified position.

Expert GCSE English Tutor.
22 students received their GCSE results this year - my biggest Y11 cohort yet, and with record success: 🎓 76% achieved top grades (7–9). 🍎 Every single student improved by at least one grade - and 80% jumped by two grades or more. ✏️ Four students were previously struggling at grade 3 - all passed, and two went on to secure a grade 6. 🏫 One student rose from a grade 4 at the end of Year 10 to a grade 9 at GCSE!

Helena has been a great teacher for my 8 year old son. She teaches him Maths and English weekly. She is patient and positive and adapts to my son’s level and speed. She has made him more confident with learning and has given him more of a ‘can do’ attitude. It’s been lovely to watch.

Thank you, Uzma!

Sara is an excellent teacher for my 5-year-old daughter, who barely speaks English. My daughter quickly understood phonics and learned how to decode words. Sara is patient, highly skilled at teaching, and knows exactly how to adapt her approach to my daughter’s needs.
We absolutely love Sara… but Fred is still our favorite! 🙃

Abigail M
Abi has been tutoring my daughter for the past couple of months, and we couldn’t be happier. She is such a kind, friendly, and patient tutor who has made learning something my daughter genuinely looks forward to every week.
Not only are her lessons engaging and enjoyable, but it’s clear that Abi puts a lot of time and effort into preparing for each one. She goes above and beyond outside of the lessons to make sure they’re tailored and well planned, and it really shows.
It’s been wonderful to see my daughter’s confidence grow, and she can’t wait for her lesson each week. I would highly recommend Abi to anyone looking for a caring, dedicated, and fantastic tutor. Thank you for all your hard work!
