Lesson Details : 60min (1 time(s) per week)Information about Susan
I taught English/English Literature at GCSE and A Level for over twenty five years in a grammar school environment, but now work as a private tutor and education consultant. I have worked extensively as an examiner for several of the key exam boards. I also regularly mark mock exams for schools to give them extra insight into their students. Ofsted inspectors and internal school observers consistently judged my teaching to be `outstanding.`
I have a positive and friendly demeanour that allows me to connect well with young people of all key stages helped by the fact that I love my job!

Sue is an amazing tutor. She has been tutoring my son who will be sitting his a-levels this year. She is very friendly and very easy to approach for any questions or queries.She is really good at focussing on what the student is lacking and helps them improve it. My son is overall a good student but he was struggling with topic tests and mock exams and his grades went really low. Sue reviewed his test/exam papers and adviced him on key points on how to imrove his writting and lo and behold he went 3 grades up in the next test. He has been consistently doing well since then. I am really impressed by his imrovement in such a short time, all thanks to Sue for her extinsive support and guidance.

An outstanding English teacher who made a real difference to my daughter’s GCSE experience. Her patience, clear explanations, and encouragement helped build both her confidence and her grades. My daughter felt supported throughout, and we are extremely grateful for the dedication and care shown. Highly recommended.

We only had one session for some guidance on a coursework assignment. Sue was incredibly helpful and gave some great advice, sending over additional content as well. I would definitely seek her out again if my daughter needs help.
