I am a passionate, dedicated and engaging teacher who is committed to ensuring that all students reach their full potential. Whilst my main aim is support students in achieving the highest possible grades, I believe that building the confidence of a student in a fun, dynamic and stimulating learning environment is also of paramount importance. I am currently in my seventh year of teaching.

Availability: Evenings during the week from 5.30pm onwards. Current availability: Tuesday and Thursday evenings only.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I have a vast range of teaching experience from GCSE to A-level in both literature and language, across two exam boards: AQA and Edexcel. I have marked English Language Paper 2 GCSE for AQA and intend to mark English Literature Paper 1 GCSE for Edexcel this summer. As a result, I have a detailed understanding of the requirements for the exam and can teach my students the skills required in order for them to gain as many marks as possible.

I held the post of English Literature Co-ordinator for two years and re-wrote the entire GCSE curriculum, along with intervention schemes.

I have also had vast experience tutoring English at GCSE, seeing excellent results and improvements from all students. I create a series of sessions catered to the individual needs of each student in order to best prepare them for examinations, as well as providing a wide variety of past papers for independent study; I am happy to grade with detailed feedback and areas for improvement.
