CURRENTLY ONLY OFFERING ONLINE TUITION

I am a qualified English and History teacher with a M.A. and PGCE in Education and a B.A. in English Literature.

I have 27 years experience teaching English Language, English Literature and History at KS2 KS3, GCSE and `A` level. Currently about half of my student are studying KS3/ GCSE English and I have almost as many studying KS2. All of my past students have done well and you can read excellent feedback from them on this site.

I offer preparatory tuition for 11+ and other selective examinations.


I have taught many ESOL/ ESL students over the years. Some of these have been in the UK many years and want to develop their idiomatic and colloquial English. Others are studying more formal grammar based courses at various levels. I produce an individual plan of study for each student, depending on their abilities and needs.

I have substantial experience of teaching English for business, both to MBA university students and to private clients.

I have spent many years teaching academic skills and providing 1-2-1 English tuition in the Higher Education sector. I can help students with their essays, reports, dissertations and presentations. I can also help prepare students for IELTs and interviews.

I provide proof-reading services for private or commercial clients. For example I can correct grammatical or structural mistakes or suggest changes to the presentation of an essay, report or dissertation. This is a bespoke service and prices will vary according to the length and complexity of the text in question.
