About me

With 18 years classroom teaching experience, consistently judged ‘Outstanding’, I have helped many students to achieve excellent results at KS3, GCSE and Advanced Level over the course of my career.


I am an English specialist and have taught both Language and Literature to A level standard. I am also familiar with the new 9-1 GCSE courses and have experience of delivering the new specifications. During my years spent working as an Advanced Skills Teacher, I gained experience of preparing students for KS3 SATs, and school entrance tests. I have worked both with ‘Academically More Able’ students and children with varying learning difficulties, taking particular pleasure when a student suddenly finds they can access a complex piece of literature or when a love of English is genuinely fostered.

I have always been able to develop excellent relationships with the students I have taught and consider myself able to deliver key concepts and skills clearly and with enthusiasm, promoting understanding and confidence.

I am pleased to offer highly structured and personalised tutoring. Whether you need to target specific skills in order to improve your general grasp of English or to receive more tailored, exam-driven support, I believe I can help students achieve their full potential.

Limited spaces available for individual tuition or paired/group teaching, at a discounted rate.
