Emily C
University of Cambridge graduate English tutor
I am a recent music graduate of the University of Cambridge with a year of experience tutoring music theory, GCSE and A Level music. I approach teaching in a calm, friendly and patient manner; with sessions being organised in whatever structure best suits the student. My priority is always that my pupil understands theories and concepts fully so that they feel they have all the tools to work out difficult questions. This means finding alternative ways of explaining these concepts and multiple methods for solving questions so that you always have your basic understanding and knowledge to fall back...

Jake B
Friendly English tutor
Hello! My name is Jake and I am currently reading Philosophy at the University of Cambridge.My tutoring style is conversational and exam-focused. When doing my A-Levels and GCSEs, I found success in honing in on the necessary information for exams, scouring past papers and mark schemes and deciphering exactly what would ensure me the best marks. I have a perfect academic record never getting below the top grade in any of my qualifications (with nine grade 9s GCSE, three A* A-Levels, and one A at AS Level) and it's thanks to these methods! I aim to provide practicable, efficient advice and techniques...

For the younger student I have a selection of games that they can play at the end of a session that assist with learning their times tables among others. For the older student I have plenty of...

Neil G
Experienced English English language & literature tutor
I am a qualified teacher of secondary school English with a PGCE, QTS and four years experience as a teacher. For this reason, I understand on a much deeper level the intricacies of learning and knowledge acquisition, much more so perhaps that someone who simply has a degree in a subject. Having said that, I do have an honours and masters degree in English literature and therefore have all the academic credentials too. Before coming to Cambridge to complete my teacher training, I spent nearly four years in Spain teaching English as a foreign language, so I am very experienced when it comes to EAL...

Catherine C
Our daughter (8) has really started to flourish with Catherine's support. She enjoys a mixture of reading, spellings and Spanish in each of her sessions, with the readings tailored towards her passion for science. Her weekly tutoring sessions have had a positive impact upon her confidence, with noticeable progression at school moving up a reading group for example.
I would highly recommend Catherine for her energetic and fun approach to learning which has suited our daughter perfectly.

Erin H
Erin is an amazing tutor! My daughter’s confidence has dramatically improved since her lessons with Erin, and her grades in both English language and literature have soared. My daughter (Y11) says Erin is very kind and patient, explains concepts really clearly and makes sure she understands everything covered in each lesson. My daughter’s ability to analyse texts and structure her writing has really taken off with Erin’s help. Erin has also given her lots of handouts and resources relevant to her GCSE exam board, and has offered to mark her written work if needed. My daughter really enjoys English now, and is considering taking English literature at A level! I can’t praise Erin highly enough, and would recommend her to anyone.
