I have been tutoring since April 2021 and have amassed over 2000 teaching hours, having graduated with a First Class BA in English from University College London and a Master of Fine Arts in Acting from Royal Birmingham Conservatoire.

I am passionate about giving my students the confidence to succeed in their studies by guiding them to find a personal connection with studying literature, and English more broadly. It wasn`t until sixth form that I came to love the subject, with a teacher who demonstrated that studying English is a gateway to learning about almost every other subject - history, politics or even biology and physics.

I love literature because I enjoy learning about authors` perspectives on the world around them and the topics which interest them. When tutoring, I find it extremely rewarding to tailor my lessons to my students` interests and steer them towards finding their own individual way of interpreting and articulating their understanding of the texts they study.

Experience: I have been a freelance English tutor since April 2021 and have clocked up over 2000 teaching hours. I have a wide range of tutoring experience: teaching adults essay-writing, coaching GCSE students for their exams, and teaching younger children English as a foreign language as well as preparing them for 11+ and 13+.

Alongside teaching, I work as an academic proofreader and copy editor for the University of Hildesheim. With this experience, I am able to clearly communicate how students can strengthen and refine their essays.
