    Hannah M

    Experienced English Teacher
    £47/hr

    I provide practical, visual, engaging lessons using real-life contexts with lots of opportunities to reason, problem-solve, apply knowledge and, ultimately, gain deep understanding. I start by finding out what knowledge the student already has and plan a programme unique to them. My expectations are high, but I bring empathy and fun to the lessons. To see exceptional progress, I expect students to practise skills learnt in my lessons outside of time spent with me. This develops their understanding and allows them to more quickly and confidently access new topics in future lessons.I have taught,...

Annually, I work as an English Literature examiner for GCSE and, therefore understand what an examiner looks for in an answer. For this reason my students achieve or exceed their target grades. In 2022, I acquired a Master's Degree in English Literature and I have since worked full-time as an online tutor. I have had a lot of experience teaching various exam boards, including: AQA, OCR, Edexcel (IGCSE as well as GCSE), WJEC,...

Adam T
English tutor
Adam is enthusiastic about the subject and relates to my Son on a one on one basis very well. My son is growing in confidence and is feeling more confident week on week. Adam works through examples with him and leaves him appropriate tasks to complete between sessions. We would recommend Adam for GCSE English revision.

Sarah V
English tutor
Sarah’s lessons were meticulously planned to suit the individual need of our daughter. The progress in the standard of work produced and level of understanding is obvious. Without Sarah my daughter would not have the confidence and knowledge needed to tackle her exams in May and June. Worth every penny.
