One of the greatest pleasures of working as an English tutor is the excitement of seeing each student’s unique response to a text or stimulus. While thirty three years of teaching in schools has been invaluable experience, I have had to be more flexible and adaptable as a tutor, than at any other time in my career. Working with a student on a 1:1 basis is immensely satisfying and rewarding as there is so much more opportunity to tailor work to a student’s needs and in return to see their breakthroughs and growth in understanding and confidence.

My best moments as a tutor? The students who have wanted to continue tuition after passing their exams – because they enjoyed the lessons!
