Keisha Ruston

Hi, I’m Keisha. I’m studying English alongside my A-levels, so I know exactly how confusing mark schemes, tricky texts and exam pressure can feel – I’ve been there too, and I break things down simply, no stuffy jargon or unnecessary pressure.

Every session runs 45–60 minutes online and in person, built around what you need: we start with a quick check-in to focus on what’s stressing you most, then work through one clear topic at a time – whether that’s spotting language features, writing strong essays, nailing creative openings or perfecting persuasive speeches. We look at real mark schemes together so you see exactly where every mark comes from, practise short tasks side-by-side, and end with one clear win and one small focus point for next time.

We cover reading analysis, comparison, inference, creative and transactional writing, grammar and exam technique – all tailored to your exam board and targets. Lessons are a safe, judgement-free space: mistakes are just how we learn, and we’ll use texts you actually find interesting, not just boring old passages.

Your first session is totally low-pressure: we chat through what you enjoy and what you find hard, try one light activity, and map out exactly what we’ll work on together. My goal isn’t just better grades – it’s you feeling confident, capable and in control of your work. Let’s get there together ??
