GCSE: English Literature and English Language lessons

Van 67.64 $ /h

I am familiar with many examining boards, such as AQA, OCR and Pearson Edexcel.

My goal is to:
- Provide personalised support to help the student overcome their academic challenges, instilling confidence in the topic.
- Strengthen the student's understanding of exam board 'Assessment Objectives', equipping them to approach exams strategically. (Exams are like a game - knowing the rules makes success easier).
- Enhance writing skills by reinforcing PEA structure (Point, Evidence, Explain) for clear and effective responses.
- Offer practical advice on revision techniques, study tips, and tools to boost the student's performance.

I achieved two 9s at GCSE in English Literature and English Language in 2017.
I earned an A in English Literature at A-level in 2019.
Graduated with First-Class MA Honours in English Literature from Edinburgh University in 2024.

Over

I am a 23-years-old graduate from Edinburgh University with first-class honours in English Literature. I am eager to leverage the skills I have honed throughout my degree, including critical thinking, writing and literary analysis, in a role as a personal tutor.

I am also well-equipped to tutor Latin language and literature, having studied it until my second year of university. Additionally, at school I achieved an A at A-level and scored 100% UMS across all modules at GCSE.

I am also a passionate artist, having achieved A* at both GCSE and A-level. I further pursued my interest by studying Art at Foundation level after leaving school. I have continued this passion throughout my time at Edinburgh, attending weekly life-drawing classes to further develop my skills

I have over 4 years of experience in teaching and tutoring English as a second language. I am currently a PhD researcher at King’s College London and run this tutoring business on the side, as I enjoy motivating students to learn new skills and overcome challenges.

I have studied English language and literature for all of my academic life and being multi-lingual (Fluent in Dutch and Sinhala), I understand how difficult it is to learn a language as a complete beginner. I am an empathetic and understanding teacher, but I also know how to push your limits and show you what you are capable of.

I will assign some, flexible homework for out of class, but most of the content will be addressed in the lesson. I am available to teach all levels of English or aid in English literature, but please message me for more information!

Hello everyone,

I am a 22 years old Belgian Female who recently moved in London in order to pursue my law studies. I completed my bachelor at the University College Maastricht in the Netherlands, and have acquired a lot of tutoring experience over the past three years. Indeed, alongside my studies, I have always dedicated some of my time to tutor French/English/Dutch lessons to people of all ages.

My lessons are taught in a way as to encourage my students to live the language they want to learn. I give considerable importance to improving one's verbal abilities, and my lessons are structured as follows:

- Warm-up games (i.e., vocabulary games).
- Verbal Skills: Debate on any topic of the student's interest.
- Writing Skills: Small essays to write at home following the debate (correction during the next class where attention shall be paid to grammar rules, etc.).
- Listening Skills: Analysis and translation of popular songs.
