Information about Louise
Hello, I`m Louise, a PGCE qualified English Teacher and 1:1 tutor. I have been teaching successfully for 7 years and for 6 years as a professional tutor. I have a first class honours degree in English from the University of Exeter and I love sharing my knowledge and passion for my subject.
I am DBS checked on the update service and I can offer sessions online or in person within a 5/10 mile radius of Taunton, Somerset. At reasonable rates I can offer tailored lessons and personalised learning plans to suit a student needs.
I have taught people from a variety of different backgrounds, abilities and experience, and specialise in final year GCSE skills, offering key exam strategies and preparation for AQA, OCR, Edexcel & iGCSE exam boards.
Key Literature texts include: A Christmas Carol, An Inspector Calls, Romeo & Juliet, Macbeth, Animal Farm, Jane Eyre, Pride & Prejudice, Jekyll & Hyde, To Kill a Mockingbird, Love & Relationship/Power & Conflict poetry and Unseen Poetry.
For A` Level English Language or Literature students, I tutor AQA exam board only.
I love English as a subject and I am keen to make a tutoring session with me a rewarding and positive experience. My approach is student-centred and communicative, where learning is enjoyable as well as a steady progression towards improvement. My aim is to help my students gain confidence and to achieve success.

Feedback For Louise (8)

My son has had several sessions with Louise and she has already helped him fine tune the answers he was giving in English, in order to be able to gain a higher grade. It is particularly useful to to have direct, personalised feedback and suggestions for improving answers, considering new approaches and working to the mark scheme. Louise has tailored her approach to my sons abilities and he has enjoyed their sessions and modified his work as a result.

Louise is well prepared with resources and has a very good subject knowledge and knowledge of exam syllabus etc. She asks good questions to check understanding and our son is enjoying his time as well as learning a lot and preparing for assessments etc. Louise is prompt and organised and clearly has a love for the subject which comes through strongly. We highly recommend Louise.

Louise works really well with our son and has inspired his learning. He is year 10 currently and the aim is to support his through his GCSE year and raise his result. It has been tough at his school as we have a lot of substitute teachers covering English and has found it very difficult to connect and engage. Louise has made this effortless and he enjoys his sessions.
