Information about Emily
I have ten years experience tutoring students at a range of levels in English from primary to degree level, a Ph.D. in English Literature and I lead lectures and seminars for core modules in literature and theory at Brunel University, London for three years. I have supported students with continental philosophy, including works by Derrida, Deleuze, Agamben, Barthes, Arendt.
I have supported 11 plus students with English, maths, verbal and non-verbal reasoning for several years, preparing them for highly competitive state selective and private, independent school examinations. While working for the Education Consultancy JK Educate, I trained tutors and monitored the progress of their students, designed online training modules, and developed resource lists for students at both primary and secondary level. Almost every one of my students report being accepted into at leas one of their chosen schools.
I also support A-level and GCSE students with English literature studies. I am very familiar with all major exam boards including AQA, Edexcel, OCR and Cambridge International. I have a high success rate with all my students reporting improved grades and/or improved understanding of their subject matter. An A-level student of mine recently obtained an A* in his A-level exams and I also recently supported a university student of mine obtain a funded scholarship.
Availability: Currently I am offering online lessons only. I am very flexible in terms of availability - if you would like to arrange a trial lesson, please message me to discuss possible time slots.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: I have 10 years experience, working with several tutoring agencies - I have supported many degree level students during the pandemic with their university studies and have successfully prepared 11 plus students for several years for highly competitive state selective as well as independent school entrance exams.
I have also prepared students for GCSE and A-level exams and I lead seminars and lectures at Brunel University, London.
At JK Educate I received training in SEN teaching, 11 plus preparation, exam content, and student assessment. In addition, I have knowledge of the appropriate resources (both books and online materials) for 11 plus preparation through to university level.
Furthermore, at JK Educate I trained other tutors, guiding them in lesson planning and resources as well as monitoring their progress with students.
DBS Check: Yes

Emily was very helpful to my daughter, who is a second year philosophy undergrad. Her lessons were clear and thorough, and her background in continental philosophy was particularly useful.
