Compassionate and enthusiastic English Tutor for all ages.
Hello! I am Oliver, a current English, Media and Forensic Reading Teacher for students aged 11-19 at a provision in West Yorkshire. English is in everything we say and do. I hope by pumping some life into English Language, the stereotypically 'boring' subject can be used as a fun interactive tool for succeeding. Developing and enjoying language are the core to my sessions. Students are able to have fun with learning new methods of writing and speaking and also contextual factors that may impact each and everyones language choices.

Nadeem A
We are incredibly grateful to have found such a wonderful English tutor for our son. Before starting lessons, he struggled to stay engaged and lacked confidence in his abilities. However, thanks to the tutor’s patience, creativity, and genuine passion for teaching, everything has changed.
The tutor has a unique way of making lessons fun, interactive, and tailored to our son’s interests. Instead of seeing English as a chore, he now looks forward to every session and even practices on his own without being asked. His confidence in reading, writing, and speaking has improved significantly, and most importantly, he has developed a real love for the subject.

Shaun H
Shaun was a incredible maths teacher who helped bridge my GCSE gaps when starting the A-level course. He actually initially taught me the course as I hadn't even got the grades to get accepted onto maths in my school, and with his help for year 12 I'm now doing well in year 13. He was a very kind and accommodating tutor. Highly recommend

Steve S
Steve has been a fantastic support for my daughter in the lead-up to her GCSE Maths exams. She had a crisis of confidence in a recent mock, dropping from her usual grade 6–7 to a 4, largely due to nerves and uncertainty around which methods to use. Since working with Steve, that confidence has really started to come back.
He has a very clear and patient way of explaining things, which makes a huge difference. Topics that previously felt intimidating, like surds, have become much more manageable, and she’s starting to approach questions with a clearer sense of direction rather than hesitation.
What stands out most is how he balances clarity with encouragement. The lessons are focused but still enjoyable, which has helped her stay engaged and motivated during a pretty high-pressure period.
We’re really pleased with the progress so far and feel much more confident about her heading into the exams aiming for a grade 7 or above. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Steve to anyone looking for thoughtful, effective maths support.

Iman D
My son hasn't had the best experience in English at school and his grade is predicted to be several grades below his other subjects. We are just 3 sessions into tuition and Iman has really helped steer him back on course. He has been patient, knows exactly how to help my son, and I am really impressed that he will take the time out of our sessions to mark any practice questions my son has sent him and offer feedback. I really like how he has clewrly explained exactly what examiners are looking for in responses. I'd happily recommend Iman, particularly if you or your child needs boosting to a passing grade. My son is very happy with his tuition and so am I!
