I offer individual tutoring online and in my home to those who are sitting GCSE and A Levels in English Literature and Language. I am also very keen to help slightly younger pupils who need help with general English skills like: reading, comprehension, grammar and punctuation, and general writing skills. I am also very keen to help adults who need help with written and spoken communication skills
For nearly 10 years, I have been working both as a private tutor and a schoolteacher, teaching predominantly Spanish and English to students of all ages and abilities in person and online. Following a lifelong love of languages, I studied Spanish and English Literature at GCSE, achieving A* and A respectively, and at A-level, achieving B and A* respectively. In 2015, I advanced my studies at the University of Reading, where, in 2019, I obtained my BA in Spanish and English Literature. In my year abroad, I studied in Mexico (University of the Americas Puebla) and Cuba (University of Havana). Since graduating, I’ve taught thousands of hours of Spanish and English online to hundreds of students, reaching the top of the Spanish tutor ranks on another platform and receiving dozens of positive, predominantly five-star reviews from satisfied clients across the continent. Knowing from personal experience how challenging learning a foreign language or mastering the art of essay writing can be, I aim to facilitate the process for my students by personalising my lessons to their individual needs. Personable, passionate and productive, my mission is to help my students not only achieve but exceed their goals.

I have recently graduated from the University of Birmingham with first-class honours, as well as the Richard Shackleton prize for best dissertation in the year. As a consequence, I have developed my essay writing techniques and structures to a level that is a very high standard. Within my tutoring sessions, I will be able to help to pass on the skills and techniques to my clients and make them feel comfortable and assured when facing a tricky question or concept.
Most importantly, however, history and English are subjects that need to be approached with curiosity and fascination. My sessions will approach various history and literature in a way that removes the perceived dustiness from History and English and will help the client to approach difficult concepts in an interpretive manner, which will help them to write clearer and more confident answers.
I am a current masters student and very flexible, I will be able to be accomodating for the student when they would like a tutoring session. Moreover, I will offer the first session free in order to see if the client enjoys and responds to the teaching. Flexibility and comfort are crucial.
I will be able to offer valuable essay and exam technique for clients in their GCSE or A-Level cycle- or just for students wishing to feel more confident. Fundamentally I will instruct how to break down a question, choose an appropriate structure, pick critical evidence and lay down quality and evaluative analysis. For clients looking to develop a wider interest in historical events, ideas and theories, I can use the experience and reading from my university years to teach these in a unique and exciting way. I firmly believe History to be dependent on curiosity and I would relish teaching it in this way.
For those looking for English lessons: I attained an A* in my GCSE, an A* overall in my A-Level (including full marks on my English coursework in year 13), as well as a first in a module on George Orwell in my final year that was very literature-based. I am more than capable of teaching a fascinating programme in both English and History and I look forward to doing so.
Hello there,
I am qualified English teacher with extensive successful experience teaching in both state and independent schools. In addion to my degree, I have 3 post graduate qualifications, including a Masters in Educational Management and Leadership (Distinction) - the dissertation of which was on raising the attainment of pupils on Pupil Premium. I am a former School Principal with over 10 years of leadership experience. I have extensive experience in tutoring Key stages two to GCSE level. I have have
Raising the academic attainment of students has been a deep passion and successful achievement - as a former Founding Principal of a school for 4- 16-year-olds, a current practising English teacher, and a tutor. I am currently teaching English on a full-time basis and therefore have up-to-date knowledge in English Language and Literature. I have significant experience teaching remotely. In addition, I have extensive experience in marking GCSE English Language and literature papers. Over ten years, 98% of my tutees have entered elite grammar schools (a few students have gained scholarships each year, too). During the last two years, 97% of my English Language tutees have achieved levels 7-9 in GCSE English Language and 96% levels 7-9 in GCSE English Literature.
I am well-resourced in teaching face-to-face or online. An initial consultation with parents and tutee, possibly a view of the school reports, will enable me to gather necessary information about your child. Importantly, the tutorials enable me to obtain first-hand knowledge of your child, enabling me to plan my lessons for the individual.
I look forward to working with you to raise the attainment of your child in an engaging way
Warm Wishes,
Yasmin

REVIEWS - TOP 5* TUTOR on TTYH, Sherpa, Tutorhunt, FirstTutors and Superprof
✩✩✩✩✩ - "Sophia will be attending Channing from the Autumn Term 2024! You have my heartfelt gratitude for all the efforts you’ve put for Sophia. I really appreciate it." - Manning A ✩✩✩✩✩ - "I just wanted to say thank you so much for everything you did for me and all of the hard work you put in. I am so happy with my results. I got an 8 in English Language and 7 in English Literature with distinction. I honestly did not believe I could achieve such results but you always believe in me and showed me what my true potential was and now I am unbelievably happy with me results. Thank you so much for everything. I truly would not be this happy and in this position if I didn’t have you as my tutor." - Zunaira
✩✩✩✩✩ - "Hello Hayley just to let you know that Iona got a 9 in her English Language today and an 8 in her English Literature. The language is particularly impressive as she was regularly getting 5’s and 6’s. Thank you for teaching her how to answer and structure her exam. She always had the ability but not the appropriate teaching and encouragement for her. We are very grateful for your expertise and help. I have another daughter and might be in touch!" - Karin H ✩✩✩✩✩ - "Thank you very much for your help Hayley. Ria did outstandingly well with 94/100. An excellent effort from both of you to pull that off in 7 weeks." - Pika
✩✩✩✩✩ - "Hayley, I just wanted you to know that Alice got an 8 in English Language and a 9 in English Literature in her GCSEs. We are all completely delighted! Just wanted to let you know and to thank you for your efforts and fantastic teaching. It's so appreciated." - Hannah W ✩✩✩✩✩ - "My daughter failed her mocks before Easter. I contacted Hayley to try and turn around a miracle for us. I cannot believe my daughter is sitting here with an ‘A’ and accepted to Durham. Hayley is honestly a miracle worker and I would recommend her any day. Fantastic and professional. Don’t hesitate to contact her." - Faiza
✩✩✩✩✩ - "Hayley taught me for A Level English. I have progressed so much in the last 3 months and today found out I achieved an A*. Thank you so much for your help and I couldn’t have done it without you." Priya ✩✩✩✩✩ - "Over the past year, Hayley has been an excellent tutor for my son. The 11+ tutoring has been of an extremely high standard, and we have been able to see the progress each week. Hayley was great at building a solid relationship with my Son, and her communication skills were outstanding. She was always on hand to answer any questions. I would highly recommend her." - Trudi D ✩✩✩✩✩ - "We contacted Hayley very last minute for a little extra support for A level History. She has been really helpful, supportive and reliable. Offering some much appreciated sessions in the lead up to the exams. Thank you Hayley!" - Diana S ✩✩✩✩✩ - "Hayley is such an attentive tutor, whose guidance has greatly aided me in reviving my love for English Literature. Her wide-ranging knowledge and enthusiasm truly helped me to gain a better understanding of what was required moving closer to A-level exams: even motivating me to take up more accurate, concise and precise methods of exam revision. Not only is Hayley's knowledge of the specification and the texts incredibly accurate and easy to translate into essay writing, but overall she is a kind and funny tutor, who made our weekly English sessions really engaging and enjoyable. I greatly appreciate having had the opportunity to work with someone so dedicated to their craft and, evidently, passionate about their subject. Thank you for all your hard work and commitment, your support has reminded me why I picked English Literature in the first place and taught me that there is so much more to love about it too. Moving forward, I have no doubt in my mind that all our collective efforts will pay off in the final exams. Thank you, Hayley" Bindu ✩✩✩✩✩ - "Hayley has tutored my science-loving English-tolerating DS for the last two years, for English Language and Lit at the IGCSE level. DS is home-educated, so Hayley has done the bulk of the work in guiding DS through the work, setting him essays and going over these with him. DS has gone from merely tolerating English to enjoying the subject (and getting top marks as well). He has developed real insight into literature and is now capable of holding an intelligent conversation about poetry, novels, and plays, with solid insight and analysis. This is in no small part due to Hayley's enthusiasm for the subject and her outstanding teaching skills. DS and I will be forever grateful to her for sparking his interest in this subject and look forward to working with her as DS embarks on IB English." - Frances H ✩✩✩✩✩ - "I've worked with Hayley for a few months on English Language and Literature. I had become home-schooled and wasn't at all confident in topics regarding English in any way. In the first session we planned out how we would split the lessons between the two subjects, and also got to know each other very well. Although Hayley is an excellent tutor, she has supported me in every way. She is extremely reassuring and so kind, and anyone would be lucky to have a single lesson with her! I'm devastated that our lessons have come to an end, however I am confident I have done extremely well in my exams, and it's all thanks to her. I have been so fortunate to have learnt from her, and would absolutely recommend it to anybody struggling with English in general, or even just needing support with revision. I honestly owe it all to her!!" - Adelle ✩✩✩✩✩ - "Hayley is absolutely 5*. She is so well prepared for each session and is patient and pitches the work perfectly for my son managing to keep him engaged and interested. She has absolutely surpassed my expectations, I would highly recommend her." - Ilker

I'm now in my fifth year as a newly qualified primary school teacher at the Ridgeway Primary school in Whitely, Reading. I have mainly taught across Key Stage 2 but have some experience in Key stage 1. I am looking to offer support during these difficult times for parents homeschooling their children and I am doing this free of charge. I have experience and a substantial subject knowledge in grammar, literature and maths at primary level. I am currently working from home and have a high availability.
Hello, My name is Abby, I am currently 23 years old and I currently work as a 1:1 LSA (DBS checked) in a mainstream primary school setting where I specialise with children with additional needs ranging from autism, ADHD, dyslexia and other needs. For the past year I have also been working as an English tutor and have predominantly worked with GCSE students and one primary school child. Again ranging in ability, from teenagers with strong abilites who just need a bit of a helping hand, to students with autism who are struggling at grasping thier subject. I am not a qualified teacher as I am traigning to be an acreditied counsellor. I strongly feel that this occupational ambition has really helped me in the field of education as all of the students that work with require more that just 'teaching' they require confidence and encouragement that they can ahieve their goals and they can excel in anything that put their mind to. Being the age I am aslo has its benefits as it's not that long since I was sitting all of my exams and remembering how stressful it all was! During this strange time that we are all experiencing due to the Virus I have decided to try and do this online! As either a tutor or just a helping hand to any parents that need a little break! I'm freindly, fun and can work with children of all ages (primary I can help with more subjects than just English!) Please don't hesitate to send me a message if you have any questions!!
Hi, I am a second year student in Reading studying Primary Education with an English specialism. While my degree focuses on primary, I am a confident instructor all round when it comes to English literature, poetry analysis, and developing essay writing at various academic levels and in many academic subjects.
Exams coming up next year? Do you have the knowledge but struggle to put it on paper? Perhaps you're not a fan of poetry and need help understanding it? If any of these apply to you feel free to reach out.

I am a highly skilled Secondary School teacher of English and Head of Media Studies, with 15 years' experience teaching at Key Stage 3, 4, GCSE and A Level in both English Literature, English Language and A Level Media Studies. I've had the joy of seeing my students go on to study both subjects at university, keep in touch and even send me their university essays and degree dissertations as proof of their continued enthusiasm for both English and Media Studies.
Having taught first for five years in Swakeley's School, an excellent comprehensive school in Hillingdon, and then spent the last 10 years teaching at the excellent St Mary's School for Girls in Gerrards Cross, I have gathered a huge amount of experience teaching both large and small groups, and, particularly at A Level, tutoring small groups of between 2-8 students.
I love communicating my passion for reading, for literature, for fluent and accurate written communication and for the power of words and other media to inform, educate and entertain us, and watching young people appreciate that power and want to emulate it themselves.
Recently I have enjoyed teaching and tutoring online via Teams and Zoom, building up a whole host of new skills and finding the joy of enabling young people to learn just as (or even more) effectively from home as they have done in a school environment. The power of one-to-one teaching should not be underestimated - a huge amount can be achieved with this close attention to the needs of an individual.
Hey there!
I'm Siaan, and I've just completed my A-levels in Biology, Chemistry, and Maths. I've had the pleasure of helping several students reach their academic goals, even when they seemed out of reach. Now, I'd love to extend that support to you!
