*Please note I currently only have availability for regular sessions on Thursday afternoos, Tuesdays at 9.30am and Wednesdays at 9.30am. I have no weekend availability.* I have been teaching Key Stage 3, GCSE English language and literature, including resit, and A level English literature for ten years. The AQA and Edexcel specifications are my main area of expertise. I am an enthusiastic, committed and patient teacher who has enjoyed lots of success with my students. In my last group of GCSE tutees, all students achieved their targets as a minimum, with 63% exceeding them in literature and 88% exceeding them in language. On average, students improved their mock results by 3 grades. I can promise you engaging and highly personalised lessons, which are focussed on identifying then working on your areas for improvement, but also on celebrating your successes. I am someone who takes the time to get to know my students well, so I can use a range of strategies to tailor each lesson to best suit you and maximise your chances of success. I also endeavour to help you understand the importance of these subjects and help you find the joy in them!
