Entrance Exam, GCSE, A-level, IB English

Primary:

I help and support primary school students who are preparing for 11+ exams, SATs and end of year tests. Key areas include: grammar, comprehension, spelling, punctuation, essay planning and all areas of reading and writing.

My approach is friendly, patient, flexible and committed, and I have a good track record of improving exam and level results, helping students who are behind in their English studies, as well as those who simply need a confidence boost.

I help children rethink their approach to comprehension exercises, expand their vocabulary, improve their reading, generally feel more comfortable taking part in a wide range of literacy activities

Secondary:

I help prepare secondary school students for exams by working with them on a varied selection of past exam papers, in order to pinpoint their areas of weakness.

I also help them to prepare succinct and clear essay plans, understand and stick to exam questions, structure essays clearly and methodically, work to timed conditions and prepare revision timetables.
