Eve Newstead

I'm from Newcastle, England. I am a certified and experienced English teacher who has taught students from all over the world. My passion for language stems from my love of literature. I am an award-winning writer of both fiction and non-fiction, with experience editing blogs and journals. I am part of two writing groups and read every single day. Additionally, I have experience tutoring English Literature to GCSE, A Level and first year university students.

Teaching English as a Foreign Language Lessons:
With experience teaching English as a Foreign Language at all learning levels, from beginners to advanced as well as Business English, I can help you at every stage of your language journey. You will improve your writing, reading, speaking and listening in our lively and interesting lessons. My lessons always break down grammar in a way that is easy to understand. Plus, I teach vocabulary using interactive activities like articles, games, storytelling, and more, in order for you to best remember new words. My lesson content will be relevant to your life and the world today. Together we will learn about culture, society, literature, geography, music, technology, and much more through the English Language. Develop your language and grow your mind!

English Literature Lessons:
I can help you prepare for exams and write academic essays. My method is to teach in a methodical but interactive way which equips you to achieve high grades whilst also develop your own imagination and independent thought. We will consider all aspects of a literary work including: language choice, themes, voice, place, style, genre and historical context. We will learn exciting ways to analyse literature using extracts and secondary sources. We will also practise writing paragraphs and essays on works of literature, focussing on grammar, punctuation and analytical terminology in an academic style. My students always comment that they leave our lessons feeling inspired and eager to read more. Grow in confidence and deepen your love of literature!

My approach to teaching is to make it fun and rewarding. I always tailor my lessons to the interests and learning goals of each student in order for them to get the best out of their lessons.
