I received my PhD from the department of English at the University of Warwick two years ago, and for the past five years have worked part time tutoring and lecturing undergraduate students in the English department. I am currently providing private tuition at A level and GCSE and am looking to expand my student numbers. In particular I would welcome enthusiastic students who are looking to improve their grades beyond their current level- whatever that might be. I have expertise in all areas of English Literature, Philosophy, and also currently teach the OCR `Philosophy of Religion` course. I have recently moved to York before taking up a teaching post at a school in September, and would be keen to help students looking to improve their current grades before the summer exams.

Availability: Weekends and any evening other than Thursday.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I have taught English literature to a large number of undergraduates over the past five years primarily to first year students. I have always received strong student evaluations and have twice been nominated for a teaching excellence award. I have also worked as a tutor on a departmental outreach project teaching English to A level and year 11 students in local secondary schools. I am currently providing weekly private tuition sessions to A level students covering the OCR `Philosophy of Religion` course at A2 level. I hold an Associate Fellowship with the UK Higher Education Academy.
