Kate Harris

I remember the days of GCSEs and A-Levels all too well. It feels like a chore when you're told what to read, but I can help you find the fun in it. Currently a uni student myself, I also provide mentoring support.

My lessons are centred around helping you work towards your goals—whether it's cracking tricky GCSE exam questions or crafting sophisticated A-Level essays with flair and precision. I tailor every session to suit your needs, interests, and learning style. If poetry feels intimidating or unseen texts leave you stumped, I’ll break it down in ways that make sense to you—no judgment, just practical, empowering support.

We’ll start by chatting through where you’re at with English, setting up a plan that helps you feel confident, not overwhelmed. And I won’t disappear between lessons—you can reach out anytime with queries, ideas, or just to talk through something that’s been bothering you.

Above all, I care about making English meaningful and manageable. Whether you're aiming for top grades or simply want to feel less lost in the syllabus, I’ll be in your corner every step of the way.

I bring patience, enthusiasm, and a genuine love for language to every session. We’ll work on sharpening your essay-writing skills, improving close analysis, and making exam technique second nature. I know what examiners are looking for—and how to help you deliver it confidently. Whether you're struggling with Shakespeare or trying to polish your persuasive writing, I’m here to guide you with clarity, warmth, and the kind of support that makes a real difference.
