"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go"- Dr Seuss

I'm a passionate and creative English Literature tutor with six years of experience teaching students ages 10-26.

I take pride in my ability to plan well-structured and engaging lessons that aim to both garner excellent results and form a passion for language and literature. I ensure a syllabus is well understood whilst a wider understanding of texts is taken on board through captivating and creative teaching methods.

I like to engage with parents to update them on their child's progress to ensure each client feels they're spending money wisely. I have a lot of experience in this process, having been a nanny/tutor for three years I formed a good understanding of the importance of parent engagement. I see myself as very personable and a good communicator which helps lessons flow naturally.

I specialise in preparing students of various stages for their exams and tailor my lessons accordingly to meet each need.

Please do message me if you have any questions, I look forward to working with you!

Actor of formation having lived abroad (London and Toronto), I love English and I would like everyone to know how to speak it! There is indeed a delay in France with respect to English, which is remembered is spoken worldwide and is the first language of communication! And this comes mainly from the lack of confidence in the oral. That is why with you I will work above all on the ease and the confidence but also on the pronunciation and the rhythm.

I can design tailored English lessons Online. In these lessons, I select exercises and make explanations in line with the students' learning goals and interests. These can include Skills related tasks: reading, writing, speaking and listening exercises; Controlled practice exercises from English Grammar in Use and other Student books.
For these lessons, students receive a handout before class with the target exercises and language.
Lessons are conducted with a PowerPoint presentation to make it engaging and interesting.

I can also tutor and help you with the homework you have already assign to you, or other tasks involving language that you need help with. In this case, I will expect you to send me before hand what you need to do so I can prepare for the tutoring session.

I can help with translation from English to Portuguese and vice-versa; proofreading and editing written work and help you in structuring your study around an assignment you may have.

English Literature is an extremely important and, for many students, compulsory part of education. This class is about improving the skills needed for close, thematic reading of both old and more contemporary texts. Using overarching themes found across literature, as well as giving suggestions for other relevant texts, this class aims not only to help pass any exams, but to also enrich your understanding and appreciation of the subject.

Outside of exams, especially for any adults, this class can be a more freeform discussion of novels or poetry for anyone who wants to enjoy literature on a deeper level but isn't quite sure where to start or what avenues of thought to explore.

Welcome to my Maths and English tutoring classes, designed for students in Years 1 to 7. With four years of experience in helping students build confidence and mastery in these subjects, I am dedicated to creating a supportive and engaging learning environment.

Maths: In our Maths sessions, we will focus on key concepts such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and basic geometry. I use interactive games, real-life applications, and problem-solving activities to make learning enjoyable and relevant. My approach emphasizes understanding over memorization, ensuring that students develop strong foundational skills that will serve them throughout their academic journey.

English: For English, we will work on reading comprehension, vocabulary development, grammar, and writing skills. I encourage students to express their ideas creatively through storytelling and structured writing exercises. We will also explore various texts to enhance their understanding and appreciation of literature, fostering a love for reading.

Why Choose Me? With four years of experience, I have honed my ability to identify individual learning styles and tailor lessons accordingly. I believe in creating a positive and encouraging atmosphere where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. My goal is to empower students with the skills they need to succeed and foster a lifelong love for learning.

Let’s embark on this educational journey together!

I am an ex-Oxbridge student (I studied at Somerville College, Oxford, 2020-2023) offering tutoring and preparation aid for anyone thinking of applying to Oxford or Cambridge. I offer help getting to grips with the ELAT paper as well as help understanding how to prepare for your Oxbridge interviews. We can even start from the beginning and work on your personal statement.
Oxbridge applications have a very specific style to them that is often quite different to the teaching of English at most secondary schools. With specialised tutoring from a successful applicant, you can feel more confident about this process! My current success rate with Oxbridge applicants is 100%, however it is important to say that entry can never be guaranteed.
