Jed Saunders

Hi, I'm Jed. I coach people in the humanities and English as a Second Language, and I love helping ambitious students get where they want to go. All my lessons are online.

If you're doing GCSEs or A levels, we'll go through the content bit by bit, layering it up and testing you as we go so it actually sticks. Then we'll get stuck into past papers and mark schemes, so you know how to plan your answers, how to answer each type of question and what the examiner wants to see.

At degree level, I'll help you write really good essays, from the research to the final argument.

I also help with the bigger picture. Maybe you want a top university, a fellowship or a place on a grad scheme. I'll tell you what's worth applying for, what will make you stand out, and help you with your applications, CV and LinkedIn. I've been through it myself, getting onto competitive fellowships and a public sector grad scheme that takes just 3% of applicants.

For English learners, we focus on speaking and writing. We talk about real things, pick up useful vocabulary, and I give you honest feedback on your grammar and pronunciation. I trained on the CELTA, teaching adults from all over the world, from beginner to advanced.

I have dyspraxia, so I know first hand that the usual way of studying doesn't work for everyone. If something isn't clicking, we'll find another way until it does.

After every lesson I'll send you notes and a few tasks, so you keep moving forward in between.
