Wether I'm teaching young learners their ABCs, Junior High School Students their IGCSE ESL, or even turoring older students how to ace their IELTS, I'm your man!
Along with that I can help 17/18+ students by proof reading university letters of application.
Additionally I am perfectly comfortable helping adult learners with their pronunciation, grammar, or whatever it is they require of me. And on the subject of adult learners; academically, I have considerable experience teaching IELTS and am happy to oblige wherever I'm needed.
In terms of pedagogy, I prefer an enjoyable yet productive, student-centred approach. All lessons will be tailored to the student's learning style. There will be absolutely NO boring lectures!
As regards my fees, I offer competitive rates and the first lesson is free.
Also, if you need to contact me, please do use WhatsApp - I am not generally abl to check my Tutor Extra (or indeed, my Gmail) account every day.
Hope to hear from you soon!

English Literature lessons in Leeds, UK.
Hi, my name is Cara. I am currently a second year student at the University of Leeds studying a joint honours degree in Ancient History and History. I achieved high grades in all of my A Levels including an A* in English Literature. I am incredibly passionate about English and this passion makes me an ideal tutor in the subject. I have experience working alongside children in KS1 and KS2, volunteering in an after school club and supporting educational visits. I believe in creating a friendly and relaxed environment for students in order to maximise their potential. I cater my lessons to accommodate any goals or worries that the student might want to address, and my lesson plans remain flexible in case the student wants to focus on a particular issue that week. I offer a free 20 minute session to have a quick chat with the student and introduce myself. Feel free to get in contact on here, my email or my WhatsApp if you have any further questions!

I make all my lessons interactive so that way you have fun whilst learning ☺️ I know what it's like to hate studying, not having anything sink in but trying so hard. Let's give it a go, try a session out and take it from there.
I am available to tutor online, primary all subjects and secondary/A-level in English and Law. I studied Law at undergraduate and I am going on to study a PGCE in Primary Education (5-11). I have an Enhanced DBS available upon request.
Having studied English Literature and Language at Leeds University, I then combined my passion for English with my passion for helping young people and became a school teacher.
During my time as a teacher I have progressed to the point where I now lead a large English faculty in a secondary school. I have over 15 years of teaching both English Literature ans Language and regularly see students under my tutelage achieve excellent results at both GCSE and A Level.
I have developed a range of methods and techniques to ensure students are engaged with their learning - when this happens, any barriers to learning are broken down and rapid progress can take place.
I am currently Head of EYFS & KS1 at Whitehill Community Academy, Halifax, a post I have held since April 2021. Prior to this I held the role of Vice Principal at Whitehill. I also completed a one-term secondment as Interim Head Teacher at All Saints’ CE (VA) Primary School in the Autumn Term 2016.
I have completed my NPQH training and qualified in July 2015.
My personal visions and values strongly align with your vision statement, I am also passionate about ensuring that all children have full access to an inclusive education and range of experiences, regardless of their background. This means I am fully committed to delivering a curriculum and range of learning opportunities, both academic and pastoral, which will enrich and prepare all children for their life ahead. I am a keen advocate for music in the school.
Having carefully considered the Job Description and Person Specification, I believe I am the ideal candidate to embrace this amazing opportunity, I have detailed how I feel I my experience, attributes, skills and knowledge match the criteria for this role below:
Current Leadership Experience
My leadership position at Whitehill gives me direct responsibility for Early Years and Key Stage 1, although much of my role also covers KS2, my main responsibilities include:
· Being the Senior Mentor for all ECT staff.
· Promoting effective relationships between staff, pupils and parents.
· Managing behavioural issues through the implementation of successful strategies such as the Restorative Justice system.
· Writing, developing and implementing our new creative, thematic curriculum (writing Programmes of Study which are cross-referenced to the National Curriculum and supporting Knowledge Organisers).
· Timetabling; Teaching & Learning monitoring (including introducing the new Deep-dive monitoring process); Staff and student placement and Induction.
· Being line manager for the lunchtime team.
· Writing policies for numerous subject and areas of school life.
In our most recent Ofsted Inspection (January 2020) our school was judged as ‘Good’, with many of the areas I am directly responsible for being highly praised. These included ‘Delivering a Broad, Balanced Curriculum’ and our Early Years Provision.
The areas which were highlighted for improvement were areas I had already identified and had started work on with the subject teams, but were not at full implementation stage at the time of inspection. This included our phonics and reading programme, which were not fully aligned at the time of inspection, but had already been identified during a deep dive in reading only a few weeks prior to the inspection. Following the inspection, I wrote a RAP for reading and Phonics, which had been actioned within just a few weeks.
I introduced a new tracking and assessment programme, DCPro in September 2018, which has helped to reduce workload both for the Tracking and Assessment Manager and for class teachers.
I have also had the opportunity to lead parent workshops on Mathematics and Assessment/ SATs preparation. I have been involved in the school’s Performance Management programme, using BlueSky.
I am the Senior Mentor for all Early Career Teachers and teacher-training students in the school, I ensure that the performance of ECT staff is monitored and reviewed through lesson observation with regular feedback given. I work in close partnership with Huddersfield University, Leeds Beckett, Trinity TSA and Teamworks.
I have also delivered ITT in Music to Huddersfield University students. I organise and often lead weekly assemblies for both Key Stages and regularly lead Achievement Assembly, which I always thoroughly enjoy. In the assembly organisation, I introduced ‘The Big Question’ linked to the assembly themes and to British Values and I ensure that all religious festivals and SMSC significant dates are covered in the assembly programme. In 2019, I also introduced Picture News to our assembly resources. During lockdown, I developed and recorded ‘Newsround’ assemblies, covering all aspects of World Religion, SMSC and current affairs. The assemblies have been so popular that I have continued recording them for use as a class-based assembly.
Previous Leadership Experience
In my role as Interim Head Teacher at All Saints in 2016 I met weekly with the Chair of Governors and I sat on all governing body committees, reviewing and writing policies and producing Head Teacher Reports. My responsibilities and achievements included:
· Ensuring that the school website was compliant and regularly up-dated. I led on staff training and staff meetings, carried out performance management appraisals for the staff team, scheduled lesson observations, work scrutinies and worked alongside the school business manager and the LA to develop the school budget.
· Successfully leading the school through its re-accreditation of the Basic Skills Quality Mark.
· Developing and leading on the school’s church ethos through Collective Worship and led on a highly successful Harvest Festival, Macmillan Coffee Morning and a series of events in church to celebrate Christmas, including Nativity performances, Carol Services and a musical concert.
· I am a firm believer in building and maintaining positive relationships with parents and the community and made it a priority to be a visible presence to parents by being on gate duty every morning and home-time to greet the children and parents.
· Working closely with the LA (including the Safeguarding team and the Health & Safety team), attending training and Calderdale Primary Head meetings, plus cluster meetings of the 12 schools within the Elland Cluster.
· I completed Whole-School Safeguarding Training and additional training for Designated Safeguarding Lead, which I have renewed for my role as Deputy DSL at Whitehill. I worked hard during my term as Head to develop an active role with the governing body and with the Senior Management Team and staff team, children and parents and also with the church. I worked hard to improve safeguarding and health and safety throughout the school.
Following my successful secondment at All Saints in January 2017, I returned to my post as Deputy Head Teacher at Whitehill. My role changed to Vice Principal in January 2018, following the retirement of our Executive Principal, changing again to Head of EYFS & KS1 in 2021. The school expanded in 2015 to give the potential for three-form entry throughout. We currently have 705 pupils on roll.
I played a key role in the expansion of the school, organising class register placements (to ensure an equal range of abilities and needs across each new class. I also played a key role, working closely with EYFS lead, in the planning and development of our new Early Years facilities, including designs of rooms, purchasing furniture, classroom resources and outdoor provision.
I was also involved in the recruitment of additional staff following the expansion, including short-listing and interviewing teachers and TAs / SEN Supports. I worked in close partnership with Wainstalls Primary School, which is part of I-Trust MAT, sharing many of my policies, schemes of work, curriculum documents and templates for Teaching & Learning / Deep-dive monitoring, many of which they have adapted to suit the needs of their individual school and adopted.
Continuing Professional Development
To ensure that my knowledge of curriculum and strategies are up to date, I have attended online National College training in the new EYFS Framework, the new Ofsted Framework, Deep-dives, Early Years practice, Baseline Assessments in Foundation Stage, Team Teach, Annual Safeguarding (plus DSL training), Safer Recruitment Training, PREVENT, White Rose Maths / Power Maths and The Write Stuff, plus RWI Phonics training and Epi-pen training.
Classroom Teaching Experience
I have substantial experience in primary education, having taught in every year group from Y1 through to Y6, plus cover in both Nursery and Reception. I have a high track record for results in the school at both key stages. In my role as subject leader, I have taken responsibility for Maths, Music and www.*** I play a key role in the school’s celebrations, included leading our Harvest Festivals alongside clergy from the local churches (Illingworth Methodist Church and St. John’s, Bradshaw) and holding our annual Christmas Carol service and Lessons, for almost 1000 children, teachers, parents and friends at Halifax Minster or Mount Zion Church. I have also musically directed and produced the Y6 end-of-year musicals, including ‘Joseph’ and ‘Oliver’, I also direct and accompany the school choir, who have participated in numerous concerts and for our elderly residents in the school’s catchment area as part of our Community Cohesion. As a very keen musician, I believe passionately that it should play a key part in school life. In 2019, I introduced The Rocksteady Music School to Whitehill and we currently have 10 rock bands involving children from Y1 to Y6.
As a classroom practitioner I always strived to set high standards in classroom organisation, discipline, planning and teaching. I continued with this same commitment to me leadership role. I work hard to ensure that everything runs as smoothly and efficiently as possible to gain results and hit deadlines. I have worked closely with the Pastoral team to ensure that the needs of vulnerable children are met, helping our school to achieve Investors in People Gold Award and Inclusion Quality Mark. In 2007 I had the opportunity to visit one of our Comenius Link schools in Denmark to look at how the school systems work, and I also visited the Kandy schools group in Sri Lanka in 2011.
Out-of-School
In an out-of-school context, I also bring sixteen years of leadership experience through my past work for Calderdale Youth Service. I am a strong believer in work-life balance and have a number of interests. I am also a member of my local Amateur Operatic Society, along with being a regular Musical Director / pianist for a 12-piece singing group called ‘Encore’. I have also been Musical Director for local amateur pantomimes and was also MD for a 100th Anniversary production of ‘Oh, What a Lovely War!’ in 2018. I am also pianist for Bradford Accordion Band. In 1998, I also qualified with the IDTA as a dance teacher in Ballroom, Latin and Modern. I was also church organist for eleven years in a small village church in Bradford and have recently played for services at my local village church (including playing for our late Queen’s memorial service, the pop-up Nativity service and the St Valentine’s family service). All of my ‘hobbies’ are very flexible to allow full commitment to my work in school.
I have 2 years experience in tutoring and am well trained in working with children and young people from my recent employment.
Student Tutor, South Craven School, (September 2015 – June 2017)
· During my time as a year 12 and 13 student I tutored year 7 and 8 students who were struggling with their English and History studies.
· I supported the younger students through one on one teaching methods, learning individual student's strengths and weaknesses and planning my sessions with them accordingly. I used methods such as flashcards, memory tests and interactive games.
· I gained invaluable skills; I can present concepts in an accessible and engaging manner and I have strong organisational skills with pre-planned, individually targeted lessons.

Whilst in secondary education, I was inspired by a maths teacher who took the time to understand the way my mind worked. He was the Head of Department, and I went to him looking for help. It was my most challenging subject, but he spent time outside of the classroom voluntarily tutoring me. I find it incredibly humbling that he was prepared to do this and that he has no idea of the impact he had on my life. The pass in Maths may have been my lowest grade, but it is the grade I am most proud of. It took effort and grit. It took long evenings after school, trying to understand why decimals even exist. And yet, it provided an essential gateway to so many opportunities. I hope to become that teacher. The teacher who engages students in a subject they might have prior negative feelings towards. The teacher who cares and puts in the extra effort for a student to do their best. My main aim during my teaching journey is to create life- long learners who will flourish in society, due to an innate sense of respect, care, and kindness towards others. My tutoring and teaching has always created an environment which will produce confident young people, who try their utmost in life to achieve and aspire to great things.
I have taught secondary English for over 5 years, with experience in both GCSE and A-Level English. This included 1:1 tuition with students from Year 7 - Year 13. I have experience of A-level coursework moderation, as well as being a coursework mentor for A-Level. I worked mainly with lower ability sets and my aim was always to help them exceed their target grades. This was always achieved through taking time to know the individual needs of every student, what makes them tick and what motivates them. My 1:1 tutoring has always been adapted to the individual and includes short term targets, as well as long term goals. My tutoring includes free extension materials and resources, for the student to complete beyond the session itself.
I have a home classroom set up, so am available to tutor online if more convenient for all. I worked throughout the pandemic, providing excellent live online working experiences. I am more than happy to travel to the student’s home if this is easier. I normally will include a quick ‘getting to know you’ session, where we will plan our expectations and targets. Parents will be able to see this plan also.
I look forward to meeting you.

Hello! Welcome to my page!
My name is Chloe P.
I have a Level 3 TEFL (teaching English as a foreign language) certification, as well as GCSE level and A-Level qualifications in English Language!
I am looking for students of any age ! no preference
English Literature and English lessons in Leeds, UK.
English Literature, Maths, Science, and Geography lessons in Pudsey, UK.
I am a French and English tutor based in the UK offering language and literature tutorials for learners of all levels.*
Since studying French with English Literature at The University of Surrey, I have been helping my students learn both French and English via Zoom. I am proud to say that they have been scoring highly in both written and oral tests.
After working for language schools in Rennes such as Institut-Mondia-Langues and Les Petits Bilingues, I have begun teaching group classes of both primary and secondary-aged students in addition to one-to-one tutorials. Please note that the maximum number of students per class is 8 only, ensuring that the children benefit from teacher-student interactions.
Throughout the pandemic, I have helped my students to grow in confidence as their levels of French and English improve, engaging with both languages and developing comprehensive written and communication skills.
What I offer:
• First class free of charge to discuss students' learning needs
• Group classes (up to 8 people) and one-to-one sessions
• French and/or English language lessons for primary and secondary school students
• Reading confidence workshops for students in need of additional support
• Spelling, phonics & grammar tutorials
• Confidence-boosting speaking sessions to encourage students to enjoy language learning
• Help with any French/English school homework that is proving indecipherable
• Literature tutorials for students studying British, American and/or French literature
• I also provide proofreading and translating services (French-English)
My tutorials are well prepared, structured, and adapted to your child/ren’s learning style/s. The first Zoom call is an opportunity to discuss their learning objectives; these might be goals such as developing their spoken language skills in French/English, or something more specific such as providing additional support for students with dyslexia.
Whatever your child’s learning needs may be, they will be given a structured learning plan targeting the aspects that they would like to work on (speaking, listening, writing, vocabulary, grammar etc).
In my classes, students benefit from language acquisition as well as learning, which is essentially the process of identifying sounds > associating those sounds with meaning > imitating the sounds to convey meaning.
This process takes practice, so I focus on overcoming obstacles that might inhibit fluency in speech or coherency in writing. For example, many of my students struggle with spoken expression at first due to a lack of confidence. To help with this, I create an interactive learning space where students feel comfortable making mistakes, empowering them to make progress.
Homework and in-class activities are used to target the areas where your child/ren may face difficulties, which we then work through together in class.
