Online English Tuition

SMART lesson plans ensure a clear understanding of academic progress, supporting students every step of the way!

My passion for teaching and English literature is supported by a Master's degree in English, a First-Class BA in English Literature, and Continuing Professional Development in education and psychology. I'm dedicated to using my subject expertise to ensure your teenager achieves vital academic goals.

 

Whether your child needs help understanding language or literature specifically, developing knowledge of a key curriculum topic, or improving their written analysis, I'm here to nurture these crucial skills and support them on their journey to success! 

 

Each hour-long session is carefully planned with SMART learning objectives. These ensure clarity of your teenager's progress and that their academic goals are aligned with individual learning needs.  Student progress is continually measured against the Department for Education's Assessment Objectives upon which each child is examined.

 

Private tuition enables a highly personalised and empathetic teaching style. Lessons allow me to understand and target any obstacles to learning and create educational resources that are right for them. 

Together, let's discover your child's full potential!
