Information about Tom
In 2018 I completed my PGCE at the Institute of Education, London and have been privately tutoring students for the past five years aged from six years (Key Stage 1 English) up to eighteen years of age (English Language A-Level) to supplement my income whilst in study. Prior to undertaking a PGCE I graduated in 2017 with a Masters Degree with Merit from Brunel University in Creative Writing.
After graduating from the University of Brighton in 2011 with an Upper Second Class Bachelor’s Degree in English and Media I worked for five years in a range of marketing and copywriting related roles, liaising with clients from various agencies in the hospitality and music industries.
Whilst working in the creative industries I wrote music reviews and web articles which were published weekly on online platforms. Whilst I studied for my undergraduate degree I was also involved in the collaborative anthology of writings about the history of the city of Brighton which was published in 2012 and available through Queenspark Books, entitled: Brighton: The Graphic Novel.
English is my passion and I have spent my working life immersing myself in the written word in professional and academic pursuit. I have wanted to share my passion and help others to develop their skills in the English language since I can remember. I feel that due to my academic achievements and experience in teaching literacy and ESOL in a range of contexts and levels I have demonstrated why I am the perfect tutor for you.

Experience: I have five years of experience in tutoring and whilst I was a trainee teacher I was working in colleges around Hertfordshire (North Hertfordshire College) and London (Camden Working Men’s College and Hackney Community College). In these placements I worked with large groups of literacy and ESOL learners from diverse backgrounds at a range of ability levels. I now run my own small business operation where I travel to students` homes around Herts, Beds and Essex alongside providing online tutoring support.

A truly professional and dedicated tutor! Tom has been tutoring my children for about 2 months now and I only have praise to share. He is always prompt, comes prepared and knows how to get the best out of my children. He operates at the right level of firmness while still making the sessions fun. What I am most impressed by is the follow through with detailed written session reports, highlighting strengths and areas where further support is required in my child’s learning. He tailors homework to the lessons, building in complexity to ensure a solid foundation in understanding. Nothing validates his worth as much as my children asking for longer sessions and looking forward to the next lesson. This is what learning should be about and Tom in my opinion has the winning delivery.
