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
I like to make my lessons as interactive and enjoyable as possible. There is no mandatory curriculum involved in my teaching; I focus entirely on your individual needs. For example, if you need speaking practice, grammar guidance, assistance preparing for a job interview, or are preparing for the FCE and CAE exams or IELTS, then I can help. (I charge more for exam preparation)
Arranging classes is easy and flexible to help busy working people.
My students have come from many countries including; Afghanistan, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Germany, India, Nepal,Italy, Peru, Poland, South Korea, Slovakia, Spain, Thailand, Turkey and Ukraine.
I am prepared to travel up to 10 miles from GU51 and I charge an additional £2 per mile from GU51 with a minimum travel charge of £20
I teach adult international students from beginner (A1) to proficient (C2) face to face and online. The first meeting for new students is free.
If you live in the Fleet area, we can meet face to face; or if this is not suitable, we can meet online by skype or zoom.

Hello there,
I am a Spanish and English Graduate from the Russell Group University of Leeds with over 3 years tutoring experience. This began with a mixture of guided reading coaching, teacher shadowing and teaching EFL tutoring in Madrid for two consecutive summers. Here I was entrusted with independently researching and collating my own lesson plans to markedly raise the linguistic level of nine-year-old Alejandro. Within a week, Alejandro could form the second and third conditional clauses in English, a high-level requirement for a student of his age. Personally, this taught me that flexibility is paramount in engaging students and improving their confidence; there is no one-size-fits-all method to tutoring.
I currently provide professional online GCSE tuition in English Literature and Spanish for “Tutortoo”. Although I am accustomed to teaching individual pupils, I am also regularly entrusted to teach large groups of 30+ with the company “Elite Medics”. I am well-versed in Spanish AQA and Edexcel exam structures and mark schemes and am confident in my online communication and engagement. I prioritize student feedback, seeking suggestions and confirmation that tasks are fully understood. In turn, I ensure that I tailor classes around their needs and passions in order to ensure a successful academic output. I also enjoy testing consistently on topics from weeks before, to develop a long term learning method.
Within Spanish, my study placement in ‘La Universidad de Oviedo’ allowed me to grasp the colloquialisms and conversational that textbooks occasionally fail to master. Whilst I will provide you with the expected tools to meet the marking criteria, I also seek to inspire and motivate with the sense of joy and spoken confidence that I gained from my experience abroad. Other formative leadership experiences, such as teacher shadowing and guided-reading coaching, armed me with the skills to effectively communicate with Primary and Secondary school pupils in an assured manner. Through witnessing the linguistic improvements of Alejandro in Madrid and the ongoing development of my current pupil, I am assured that my optimistic attitude, paired with a thorough knowledge of my chosen subjects, facilitates the academic growth of others.
Within English, I am passionate about discovering the inner creativity in my students. Originality of ideas was the key contributor to my recent Dissertation success, as well as my A-Level achievements. I will thus not only hone the pupil’s articulate and engaging writing style but also cultivate confidence in their own instinctual ideas. For this reason, I consistently repeat the mantra that “There is no wrong answer” during my English lessons.
Regards

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
