Hello there,
Raising the academic attainment of students has been a deep passion and successful achievement - as a founding former headteacher of a school for 4- 16-year-olds (ten years), a teacher, and a tutor. I have recent English teaching experience at a school (and remotely), in addition to marking GCSE English Language and literature papers. Therefore I am at ease in teaching both key stages three and four students. Over a ten-year period, 98% of my tutees have gained entry into the elite Grammar Schools (a few students gaining 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% in GCSE English Literature.
I am well resourced in teaching face to face or online. An initial consultation with parents, the tutee, in addition to a view of the school reports enables me to gather necessary information about each student. Importantly, the tutorials enable me to get first-hand knowledge of each student enabling me to plan my lessons for the individual.
I look forward to working with you to raise the attainment of your child.

I have worked within education since 2001 as an English Teacher, ASD Specialist Teacher, ASD Lead Teacher, SENDCO and private tutor both in the UK and overseas.
I taught English for 5 years in Holyhead and then relocated to Cairo, Egypt, where I worked as an English teacher in an international school for 4 years teaching KS3, GCSE and ‘A’ Level.
Following that I set up my own business as a tutor and delivered tuition for adults for Business English, EAL sessions for an Engineering company and a variety of 1:1 English tuition for KS2, KS3, KS4 and KS5.
I then worked in Costa Rica at a British School, teaching English at KS3, KS4 and IB for KS5.
From there, I returned to the UK where I undertook supply in English and other subjects for a period of time.
In 2017 I took on the role of Specialist Teacher in Charge of ASD Provision in Sowerby Bridge, West Yorkshire, where I oversaw and ran an ASD Unit for EHCP students. This post further developed when I became ASD Lead Teacher where I was responsible for all children at the academy with ASD.
I was appointed SENDCO in February 2020 at Ebor Academy Filey in North Yorkshire and have worked there for 2 years. During that time, I taught English at KS3 and KS4, was Designated Teacher for Looked After Children, set up an internal alternative provision and managed our fledgling EAL provision.
I have an enhanced DBS certificate on the update service.

I am a fully qualified (DBS checked) English teacher (I semi retired in September 2019).
I've taught English at secondary level for over 35 years. I am fully up to date with exam assessment critieria and, having worked as an AQA exam marker, I know exactly what the exam board looks for.
Over the past few years I've also worked as a private tutor with students from Years 5 to 9, successfully helping them to consolidate any aspects of English needed (including Verbal Reasoning for the 11+ exam). I have also had success as a tutor with a number of students at GCSE (AQA exam board English Language and English Literature) and A Level (AQA English Literature).
I tailor tuition to the individual student's needs and by working with them one to one I am able to help them realise their potential.

I am an experienced English teacher who has worked in secondary schools for the over 20 years. I am also an AQA Lead Examiner and and Adviser to more than 150 schools for English Language A Level. I have Advanced Diplomas (post degree) in both Language and Literacy and in Child Development. English Language is my passion though, of course, I have taught GCSE Literature as part of my professional role in school and I love teaching the texts associated with the requirements of the course. I enjoy working with teenagers at both GCSE and A Level though my specialist Language knowledge is particularly relevant to A Level Language students. Increasingly, however, this in depth knowledge is relevant to GCSE English students. I am happy to work with all levels and relish the opportunity to engage with individuals who are seeking to increase their knowledge and understanding of the key requirements for both GCSE and A level courses. I am happy to work online to work one to one with pupils and help them to develop their skills through close monitoring and feedback.

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.

As a Head of the Languages Department and Primary and Secondary Teacher in a school in Leighton Buzzard for over 10 years, I believe I am the right language tutor for you!
I'm fluent in Spanish, ( my native language) French, and English and have spent many years teaching and studying languages. I completed a bachelor's degree in Spanish and English at Manchester/ALmeria University (2008) and studied Spanish and English Literature in school (GCSE and A-Level) so I know how daunting grammar can sometimes feel and how stressful language/literature exams can be... but also how great it feels when you finally start getting it!
On the language side of things, I can help you with your writing, listening, speaking, grammar, and exam technique. I can help you with conversational skills if you're just looking to go traveling or make Spanish/French friends.
On the literature side of things, a large part of my degree was literature-based, so I would be very happy to help any Literature students if you are struggling with the subject.
If you're in school and really want to get an A/A* (7/8/9), I can make sure you achieve your goal. Whatever your current grade, an A/ A*/7/8/9 is achievable. I have taught these exams for many years so I know how they work and how you can do well in them. We will work closely with the syllabus and go through some secrets of exam technique to make sure you get a top grade.
Alternatively, if you're wanting to learn languages for travel or business purposes (or just for fun!) we can tailor the lessons 100% to suit your needs. I also teach courses to adults from beginners to advanced and I always tailored to each student's need. I also teach English to foreigners to achieve the Cambridge Examinations ( A1 to C1).
I effectively deliver and plan online outstanding lessons and the feedback that I have received from parents, pupils, and adult learners have always been very stimulating. I strongly believe in the student centered-approach as always shown in my lesson plans. I believe that all students are individuals with very specific needs so differentiation has always been at the forefront of my teaching practice. I find it very important to address any students’ needs in order to get the best potential out of every single student. I am successful in establishing high expectations of behavior in the classroom whilst still developing positive relationships with my classes.
I love online teaching as well as face to face. I have been doing online experience for the last 5 years and I have helped most of my students to achieve an excellent language level. I use Google Meets, Google Classroom, or even Skype for online teaching. I generally send and post great, fun, and genuine resources so that the student can access them easily and successfully. There are so many fun online resources that I could provide you to enhance your language skills, especially in Speaking; what a great way to speak the language with a native speaker! You will also gain a broad cultural awareness and your fluency and pronunciation will speed up!
Contact me and ask what it is that you need and I will make sure you will get the best of your language skills!
On the other hand, I am a 200hr yoga certified instructor for the last 2 years and I can give you online 1-1 lessons from beginners to more advanced practitioners. I can also give the online yoga class via zoom to you and your whole family! If you have children, you will be glad to know that I have trained to teach kids yoga and I have been organizing yoga workshops in primary and secondary schools.

Building confidence in Education
I am passionate in education for all, and for all to succeed. Every child can find their own success; not only that meets the needs of the academic requirements, but also the needs of the child. Engaging their individual curiosity and enquiry for learning, I believe, allows a child to become a successful and independent learner for now and the future. I have been teaching in primary schools for the past 20 years, based in the Midlands. I have taught across the primary key stages from years 1 through to 6 and have been a KS1 phase leader, Maths and Science Leader in a variety of settings. I have been a private tutor for the past 15 years enabling children from ages 6 to 16 to find confidence in mathematics and English. Through this confidence, the students have often gone on to be successful in other areas of the curriculum, not just the areas they have been tutored in, as they have newfound believe in their own personal abilities and have a positive and confident mind set. I have taught modules on Teacher Training, specifically behaviour management and structures of learning. I have a full understanding of how children learn and what is needed to achieve success, not just in the subject but also within the child. I believe that a positive mind set is key to fulfilling potential and high performance in any area. Having a clear understanding of the pathway that each child needs to take is crucial in this success. Therefore, I regularly keep updated with the recent pedagogical development within education and the variety of learning resources available for use. It has often been said of me that I am fun, humorous and engaging in the classroom, but the proof is in the attainment of the pupils I teach in class and the students I teach privately. Children feel valued, supported and confident in their ability to move forward in their learning.

I am a graduate of Leeds University. I tutored throughout my studies, and consequently have 9 years of experience - both in the UK and abroad.
I teach English Language and Literature, History, Latin and Greek and French up to A-level, as my main subjects.
I have also specialised in tutoring the humanities up to A-Level/ IB Level tutoring, including politics, religious studies and history.
I have taught at all levels, having worked with students as young as 5 years-old, through to A-Level students and adult learners. I have experience in preparing students for the ISEB Pre-tests, for 11+, 13+ and common entrance - English and maths.
I have successfully coached many students through the application procedures to top UK independent schools, including Eton College and Harrow School, and to top universities including Cambridge University and University College London.
I am a committed tutor and have consistently produced excellent results. I believe that effective teaching must focus on the student’s needs and must be engaging and fun. I always strive to bring the best out in my students.
Charity - Vice president
I have been part of the humanity welfare trust for 1. 5 years. Humanity welfare trust was established by a group of eminent community leaders in 2017. Humanity Welfare Trust (HWT) is a leading non-governmental organizations in countries such as Turkey, Pakistan and India including its own headquarters in (Cheadle) Manchester which is dedicated to carrying out humanitarian and development programs to fight poverty and people’s sufferings. It has also been working in partnership with vulnerable communities regardless of faith, caste, gender or political beliefs. I have helped people ranging from old grandparents in care homes and cancer patients to helping children in schools and nurseries through the charity. This charity provides opportunities to help those who are suffering from illnesses so they can acquire medical care and support. I visited India in 2016 and saw the dire condition the poor are living. Furthermore many students have started to go school in India however the children who do attend school receive an inadequate education because of poorly trained or underpaid teachers, overcrowded classrooms and a lack of basic tools such as textbooks, blackboard, even chalk, pencil and paper. I have personally helped donate sanitation kits as well as thousands of water bottles to improve the lives of these innocent people.
I strongly believe that education provides the key for a better future, so these underprivileged people can increase their skills, fulfil their potential and pursue their goals. But millions of children across India are denied even basic education. As a charity we aim to provide impoverished communities with access to education or training, which offers them a way out of poverty. By working directly with local communities, we ensure that our educational projects are relevant to their needs.

I started off volunteering in a nursery in Cambridge and decided this age group definitely wasn't for me. When I finished my degree in Sociology I returned to working in a school but this time a middle school and it is here where I realised this was the career for me. I was much better with older students (not toddlers) and thoroughly enjoyed my time mainy working with Year 5, 6, 7 and 8. After a year and a half I went to Oxford Brookes University to get my PGCE Teacher Qualification and went from there. I have now worked in a large number of schools and met so many wonderful staff and students. I did some tutoring during my first pregnancy and my highly dyslexic student gained a Grade B at A level English Literature. I was most pleased. I look forward to more future students getting great results.

***PLEASE NOTE - I AM OFFERING ONLINE TUTORING OWING TO THE CURRENT COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS***
I am passionate about the literary arts; about their ability to communicate ideas and emotions and to help us make sense of the world around us. Tutoring has allowed me to share that passion with students of all age groups and with a wide variety of educational needs. I enjoy the process of finding the best path to helping an individual achieve their goals, whether that be essay structure improvement, gaining a better appreciation of a specific text, or attempting to boost predicted grades. So far, I have had an excellent degree of success with helping the majority of my students attain A and A* Grades at A-Level and GCSE.
I have taught a range of students, from primary school children, through to adult learners and university students over the past 10 years. I find the needs of each student are as individual as they are, and I usually like to keep the sessions fairly informal and discover exactly where it is that students are finding themselves in difficulties. This also encourages them to develop and have confidence in their own individual voice, both in creative writing, or in their approach to analysing a specific text.
Some of the areas I have experience in and have covered are:
-Boosting English Language and Literature grades at GCSE and A-Level
-UCAS applications
-Preparation for Oxbridge/ university entrance interviews
-Practical criticism and close textual analysis
-Essay structure and style
-Coursework guidance
-Creative writing support
-Historical context and its textual significance
-Literary theory and its application
-Helping students gain confidence in expressing ideas verbally
-Remote marking and feedback
-Suggestions for wider reading
-My particular research interests at university included: Irish Literature, Empire writing, W. B. Yeats and literary satire in the 18th century.
