I wish to offer online tutoring, in areas from secondary school English Literature, to assistance with university applications. I am 23 years old and have recently graduated from the University of Birmingham having completed an undergraduate and master`s degree in English Literature. In this, I focused on Gothic literature, Greek myth and, for my final dissertation, Byronic heroes in history and modern forms of literature. I enjoy reading and research, which has made tutoring an enjoyable experience.

Availability: I am available for sessions all day Monday to Wednesday and Saturday afternoons.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: My experience at university in editing my own work as an undergraduate and postgraduate, the work of my peers, and having gone through both English Literature tutoring and the university application processes myself, has given me valuable knowledge as skills in being able to help others in these challenges. As well as this, my current tutoring experience has given me the tools for research, creating presentations with which I can teach, and has allowed me to build a friendly rapport with student and parent. I have been able to assist in improving grammar and sentence structure, exam techniques, understanding (and hopefully enjoying!) poetry, and catering difficult topics to the individual student in order to make subjects more relatable and palatable.
