English Literature and Essay Writing for High School and Undegraduate Levels

For voracious readers, word lovers, poets and theatre buffs English Literature is the perfect choice. In addition, the analytical, interpretative and discursive skills you develop by studying literature will not only challenge or discover your own and learn the literary skills to express yourself in original and creative ways, but also prove excellent preparation for university.

As a First Class Honours degree holder in Comparative Literature at University College London, one of the top ten universities in the world, I am confident in my ability to help you explore the beauty of literature as well as build up a strong foundation for your essay writing skills. The focus of the lessons would be tailored to your specific needs. I could help you work on your school assignments, polish your essays, give advice on your univeristy applications, or simply guide your own growth as a reader. Please be as open and specific to me as possible on your needs.

About Me

I am a friendly, fun but serious (when work comes) person. As a student, I'm too familiar with how a boring, too general lesson can take a toll on you, so I'm determined to make the lesson as fun but efficient as possible. The pace of the lesson will be set by your needs. I hope I can do justice to how interesting literature as a subject can be.

I can also help you prepare for IELTS and University Applications.

Reviews (1)

She is definitely amazing. Her teaching ways are really respectful even though I'm actually an English teacher for little children. She always lets me think not only teaching. I could notice that's really important. Also, she has wide range of vocabulary and knowledge of litelature, so I could gain a lot of new knowledge even just for 1 class.

Rob
English Communication/Conversation With an Experienced Native-Speaking Teacher
I'm a native English speaker from Canada, currently living in Prague, with many years of ESL and university teaching experience. I can help you gain confidence and improve skills through stimulating, content-based lessons with varieties of topics, activities and materials, designed and adapted to your level, interests, and requirements, and what you and I together feel we want and need to work on flexibly week by week. I work with intermediate to advanced students (B1-C2), with most of my students interested in conversation/communication English (focusing on speaking and listening skills, and including improving vocabulary, fluency, pronunciation, and grammar), but I’m also happy to work with students on writing and reading. My teaching style is engaging, creative and friendly—I try to make every lesson an interesting and enjoyable one. But I’m also professional, prepared, organized, and reliable. I rarely use a textbook—some students enjoy primarily having conversation without other resources needed, but I also often use songs, videos, and texts of various kinds to provide a wide variety of topics, new vocabulary, varieties of listening practice, etc., and I also use varieties of ESL material from various internet sources as well.

Elise
French private lessons by university graduate in Letters
Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to: - consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling - improve their language skills (allophone students) - improve their speaking skills (conversation classes) -profect the written expression - prepare for ECR exams - prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion) - help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation - work on argumentative texts - acquire a method to analyze literary texts - learn how to perform bibliographic research The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing. For help with writing: The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson. For analyzes of oral literary texts: In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage. For the corrections of end of studies work: so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting. Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone. For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages. For adults (FLE): In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website). The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling. Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.

Sereina
Tutoring and exam preparation Spanish and English
English and Spanish are world languages and more and more people of all ages are discovering the opportunities that come with learning these beautiful languages - especially traveling and getting to know other countries and cultures. English is a compulsory subject in all schools and at all levels, and Spanish is also offered as a core or elective subject in many high schools. I lived in a Spanish-speaking environment for several years (Mexico, Spain, Paraguay) and also began my first degree in Spanish language and literature at the University of Zurich. I took an IELTS diploma in English two years ago so that I could study in English. I love languages and I really enjoy teaching them to other people. As I majored in Spanish at high school, I know what knowledge is required at this level for the exams and especially the Matura.
