Carla has been fantastic at preparing my son for the 11 plus. She is thoughtful,engaging and deeply knowledgeable. Our son has improved so much and looks forward to her lessons. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to improve their approach to creative writing.

Elizabeth helped my daughter enormously with her A-level English and English Literature. She went from getting a 4 to an 8 in English Language and from a 6 to a 9 in English Literature. Thank you Elizabeth!

My son was at a Grade 6 for English Lit in January after his mock and was feeling really I confident about his exam. I contacted Michelle and truly within a few sessions, she transformed his confidence with practical exam techniques and we have just had his GCSE result - a grade 8. This was an incredible transformation and both me and my son are convinced that without Michelle, he would not have got anything close to this result. Thank you!

Ava is an amazing tutor, she has managed to help my son, moving him from grade 3 to grade 6, in a very short space of time. Ava is great communicator, great motivator, always fully prepared for lesson. Also very flexible and helpful, if he needed extra lessons at short notice, it was never a problem. I will recommend her to everyone, and hopefully he will tutor my younger son in the future.

Tyla is an amazing teacher who has helped me through year 11 and my grades went from 3 in English language and 4 in literature to a 5 in language and a 6 in English I recommend Tyla for anyone struggling with English.

Sandar has been an exceptional English tutor over the past two years. When we began, my son was working around a Grade 6/7 level in English Language and had not yet studied English Literature. Through Sandar’s professional guidance, expert teaching, and clear focus on exam techniques, there was a remarkable transformation. By the time of the GCSEs, my son achieved the very highest standards — Grade 9s in both English Language and English Literature, including almost full marks (63/64) in Literature Paper 1. This is a testament not only to the student’s hard work but also to Sandar’s ability to explain concepts clearly, build confidence, and equip her students with the tools they need to excel. I would highly recommend Sandar to any parent or student looking for an outstanding English tutor.

I cannot recommend Adam highly enough as an English tutor. From the very first lesson, it was clear that he goes above and beyond to ensure my son is not only learning the material but truly understanding it and gaining confidence in his abilities. Adam brings an incredible level of dedication and care to his tutoring, tailoring each lesson to my son’s individual learning style and pace. What sets Adam apart is his deep understanding of the learning process. He doesn’t just teach content—he equips students with practical memory techniques, revision strategies and exam approaches that really work. His use of methods like mind mapping and timed “blurting” exercises, along with tools like Quizlet, makes learning engaging, manageable and highly effective. Adam’s calm and supportive approach has made a real difference for my son, helping him tackle challenging topics with clarity and confidence. Whether it’s preparing for exams, understanding complex material or improving exam technique, Adam consistently goes the extra mile to make sure my son is ready and confident. If you are looking for a tutor who truly understands the struggle and inspires students to achieve their best, Adam is absolutely the one to choose.

My son learned GCSE English Lit with Debbie for around 12 weeks and he got 9! Amazing teacher. Highly Recommended!
