Nina

I am an experienced A-Level, GCSE, KS3 English teacher and AQA examiner whilst being an established Middle School Leader with a specific focus on Literacy. I teach English Language and English Literature.

I provide support for knowledge building / content focus or specialist help with exam technique. It is often this lack of exam technique and exam focus that will hinder a students progress. Currently I work with students from all different backgrounds.

I currently manage literacy across our school and I have previously worked a Deputy Head of English in a large school. In my previous school, we were a large faculty where the English GCSE results were regularly in the best top 25% of schools in the country and our GCSE results were 96% 9-7.

My mission is to inspire my students and encourage them to have a positive mindset, with a `can do` attitude, ensuring they reach their full potential.

Availability: Due to the Covid 19 situation and the impact this had on the education system - I taught online effectively and therefore I can make myself available across a much wider selection of online slots to make sure your son or daughter is supported towards his / her exams. Please contact for details of availability and I will do my very best to accommodate.

At present, I work full time therefore online after school hours, evenings and weekends is the best as I have a child of my own however this summer, things will be very different and I will be reducing my hours to part time.

I am here to help and work with your child to develop appropriate exam technique , cover lost content and empower your child to demonstrate to his or her classroom teacher that they are capable of producing high quality written work.

I will be doing all tutoring online for the time being and am currently working with Year 10, Year 11, Year 12 and Year 13 students across GCSE and A-Level English Language and Literature.

Willing to travel: Home Only
