Private English tuition with experienced tutors in Midsomer Norton.

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.

Hi there and thank you for considering me as your tutor! I am a Primary teacher with experience in all phases but have spent most of my career teaching in Upper Key Stage 2.I pride myself on being patient with my students and trying different methods of teaching as it is not a case of one style fits all!

I am a poet and theologian, with a degree in Theology from Oxford University. I am keen to help young people hone their English language skills, especially in creative writing, and to help young Theologians expand their knowledge and develop their skills.

Whilst I try to keep my lessons fun, I also believe there is no substitute for hard work. I have been known to set homework for students I believe would benefit from practicing skills outside of our sessions. I have also...
