Private English tuition with experienced tutors in Torbay.

I have worked in education most of my career, firstly as a Primary teacher from 1986 and later as TEFL teacher from 2009.Since 2017 I also started to tutor 11+ to yr4 and yr5 children as there was quite a demand at the time.

Hello! My name is Sophie and I graduated from Durham University in English Literature in June 2024. I decided to study English Literature at university because I've always loved reading books and discussing them at length. Reading and analysing books gives us a better understanding of the world we operate within, human psychology, and the past. Outside of English, I love to draw, knit, and embroider. I also come from a big family, so I love spending time with them when we are together. I grew up internationally and lived in several countries before finally moving back to the UK.I also write my...
