About our owner and founder
I am a committed, enthusiastic and friendly tutor/mentor with 30 years of teaching experience and up to date knowledge of teaching methods. Since graduating from the University or Reading in 1992, I have taught in a variety of Norfolk schools - both primary and secondary (including an American school here in the U. K.). I have a proven track record of improving pupil achievement in maths and am able to offer tailor-made tuition to meet individual pupil needs - whether the student is struggling to keep up at school, developing confidence or preparing for exams.
Home Educated children I am happy to work with home educators and their children. As home educating families often have very individual requirements, please get in contact if you would like to discuss options for daytime sessions. I also offer discounts for home educated students taking lessons during school hours (9am-3pm) on weekdays in term-time. Please contact me for details.
Due to the popularity of services, I now operate Discovery Tutors in order to be able to meet the demands of existing and future clients. All of the tutors have been personally vetted by me, have enhanced DBS checks and undergo child protection training.
/ Raymond W.
Before moving to Norwich, Norfolk, Raymond W., BA Hons/PGSE. (Mr Grade) spent the early part of his life, growing up in the East End of London.
As a mature student, Mr Grade gained his BA Honours Degree in English and Psychology in 2001. He continued his academic career by achieving a Post Graduate Degree in Education for Students at 16 plus, teaching English and Psychology within a College and Sixth Form setting.
Mr Grade found that students who struggled in the college setting had ‘gaps’ missing from their previous education in the lower schools. As a result, Mr Grade felt that he could help students by achieving a Qualified Teaching Status so that he could better prepare students in Secondary Education. Mr Grade is passionate about young people progressing, successfully, to either their academic or work-related careers at college.
Mr Grade has taught in the Primary setting, teaching the English skills that young children need, to enter confidently, into Secondary Education.
Mr Grade believes in ‘giving back to the community’ the chances that education had given him, which spurred him to teach both young people and mature students so they become ‘the very best versions of www.*** ;
In recent years, he has successfully taught English Language and Literature up to GCSE in both Norfolk, Suffolk and Online!
Hi there!
I am a fun, friendly and Fully Qualified Teacher, currently teaching at one of the UK’s leading independent schools. I have tutored pupils 1:1 and in small groups, both in the UK and internationally for over 10 years, with much proven success. Every lesson is personalised to the needs of the pupil, so that we can maximise the learning in every session!
Hello, I am an English Teacher at a Secondary school in Norwich. My previous work experience includes working as a teaching assistant, nanny and a cinema manager!
I am experienced in teaching GCSE and key stage 3, as well as English as a foreign language. I have also run creative writing groups in the past.
I have taught adults and children in my lifetime and I hope to bring clarification and understanding to the subject matter, and all of my lessons will work towards their goals.
I hold safeguarding and mental health first aid certificates and a current DBS check. I also have a TEFL level 5 certificate. They can be viewed upon request.
The first lesson is free, so you can decide if tutoring suits you/your child. Send me a message today, and I will reply as soon as I can.
Thank you,
Nisha
German, English, and English Literuture lessons in Bungay, UK.
Your child’s primary school years are crucial, especially as they draw to a close and secondary school approaches!
Could your child use some support ahead of the SATs tests? Perhaps they just want to avoid the ‘summer slump’ or need more confidence or fluency in English or Maths. If so, enquire about tutoring sessions with me!
Most of my work has been with children in Upper Key Stage Two (Years 5 and 6). However, with over ten years of experience in the classroom and at leadership level in primary schools, I am open to working with any and all primary age children.

German, French, English, Spanish and Maths lessons in Norfolk, UK.
I have been a school leader for 14 years, including as a Head Teacher. I plan, write and deliver bespoke packages for all learning needs, in English, Art and Design subjects at Secondary, and across the curriculum for Primary, including Core subjects of Maths and Science. I can offer literacy and Art classes for adults, at beginner and higher levels. I offer online and face to face learning and know that building good relationships is key in building confidence for learning. I am friendly and approachable and can adapt learning as we progress in line with pace and progress. I can offer baseline testing, progress checks and additional assessment where needed, and tailor learning packages to needs. I offer free initial consultation and first session, so please contact me to discuss your needs in more detail with no obligation.
I have extensive experience of planning and delivering all lessons for years 3 to 6 including SATs preparation and delivery for my year 6 class. I have also worked closely with my school SRB planning a part time timetable for a student in year 4. I have also completed all assessments for these students. As assistant Senco I've worked closely with students with EHCPs as well as their families and teachers. During 'lock down' I planned and then delivered lessons via 'zoom' so pupils could see us and have a point of contact as well as learning. I think that a practical approach to learning inside and outside the classroom allows students the scope to really involve themselves in the process of becoming confident, caring and thoughtful members of our society. I believe that an excellent, supportive relationship with students establishes a foundation from which they can thrive. I know that if students feel safe, listened to and cared for, they are able to challenge themselves and develop to their potential. I have a proven successful track record of leadership. When I began my role as Head of English, the department was a new one, containing four NQTs. I have built upon the strengths of the department and developed them to become the successful, coherent team they are today. The impact of this is that results have improved from 65% to 79% 4-9 (84% in Literature in 2017). At KS5 our English Literature results are in the top 2% nationally. I am regularly commended on my ability to meet deadlines and see a job through to completion. My team feels valued and appreciates my sense of humour and ability to work under pressure. I believe that one of my strengths is in recognising, steering and developing staff to achieve their potential. This is a necessary skill for inspirational leadership. We are a collaborative and constantly evolving department. We have excellent standard of teaching and learning with seven out of nine lessons graded outstanding or good at departmental review. My role of staff governor has provided me a deep insight into, and appreciation of, the wider workings of the school. In order to be a successful governor it is crucial to maintain integrity, honesty and a real faith in and passion for school improvement. I believe that I manage to communicate effectively my commitment to the right outcomes for all stake holders. It has been hugely enriching for me to be able to separate out professional and personal decisions by understanding the bigger picture and whole school context.
English with Eleanor!
