Focus on progress with a specialist Film Studies tutor
Watching a film is one thing, but writing a high-mark essay on auteur theory or spectatorship is a different challenge entirely. If your child's passion for the subject is being buried under confusing terminology and strict marking criteria, it’s hard to know how to help them yourself.
By hiring a specialist Film Studies tutor, you take that academic pressure off your own shoulders. You can stay the supportive parent while a professional mentor helps them deconstruct complex scenes, master technical language, and build the clear, analytical writing skills they need for their exams.

An online classroom built for visual analysis
Our digital classroom is much more than a standard video call. It is a workspace where your child and their tutor can work on film analysis together in real-time. They can use a shared whiteboard to map out essay structures or use screen sharing to freeze-frame specific shots and discuss lighting, editing, or camera angles.
This interactive setup keeps your child focused and makes the hour highly productive. To keep you in the loop, tutors send weekly progress reports so you can see exactly what they’ve covered and how your child’s analytical skills are growing.

- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.
- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.
- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study....

I have my (2.1) BA in English Literature from The University of Sheffield and have been an online tutor for two years. To date, I've taught over 3,000 lessons, from KS1 to A-Level which has enabled me to adapt my teaching style and content to different students.For example, when I tutored a student with ADHD I increased the number of activities while reducing the length to ensure they remained engaged with the lesson.Conversely, when tutoring one of my A-Level students with anxiety, I slowed the lesson pace and used fewer activities to reduce stress. In lessons, I predominately use visual learning...

Zoe P
Zoe has been tutoring Thom for around 6 months in the run up to his A'level Film studies exams. Since starting his lessons with Zoe Thom became much more confident with the subject and his enjoyment increased considerably. All the lessons were carefully planned and homework was set along with a detailed study plan. Thom's grades also improved and he now feels that he performed well enough in his final exams to get the grades that he needs for uni. I would not hesitate to recommend Zoe for anyone requiring support with their A'level preparations.

Paul has only just started tutoring my daughter—but already she feels confident he will build her knowledge in film and help her become more equipped to answer exam questions. He also has a supportive and kind manner and all sorts of useful revision materials to share. If you need a film tutor, I recommend.

Nick P
Nick has been supporting our 17 year old daughter in her first year of A Level Film Studies. She had been struggling at college due to poor quality teaching and scored poorly on her first mocks.
In a matter of weeks, Nick has boosted her understanding of film form, narrative and historical context; he has also helped her to develop her analytical and essay writing skills, giving her practical and insightful tools and techniques.
Thanks to Nick’s fabulous support and tutoring, our daughter increased her grades from a D to a B after retaking her mocks.
We are incredibly grateful to have discovered Nick, who is so passionate about sharing his own love for Films and the study of film. He has infused our daughter with a joy for studying this subject again and most importantly has given her new confidence in her abilities.
Thank you Nick.
