What Makes My Tutoring Different?

  • Local Knowledge: I have a strong understanding of Guildford's education landscape and work with students from various local schools
  • AQA Expertise: While I support all exam boards, my methods are particularly strong for AQA, which many Guildford schools use
  • Flexible Sessions: Available for in-person sessions in Guildford or online tutoring UK-wide
  • Structured Approach: Clear methods for each exam question type, from creative writing to poetry comparison
  • Confidence Building: Many students struggle with exam anxiety - I provide calm, patient support alongside skill development

GCSE English Language Support

From Paper 1 creative writing to Paper 2 comparison tasks, I break down each question type into manageable steps. Students learn exactly what examiners are looking for and how to structure their responses effectively.

GCSE English Literature Support

Whether studying A Christmas Carol, Macbeth, or the Power and Conflict poetry anthology, I help students develop analytical skills and write strong comparative essays. We focus on understanding themes, character development, and how to use quotes effectively.
