Maisie Shepherd

I’m Maisie, I’m fully qualified, experienced, the lot! Im an English teacher as a full-time position, and I offer private tuition affordably without having that undergraduate university downside that comes with cheap learning :)

I offer core subjects at primary level, but my English Literature and Language teaching expands to A-level. Exam boards are not an issue with me, nor are the texts your child is studying— I can assure you that if it’s out there on a UK curriculum somewhere, I absolutely have done it before!

I have six years experience with SEND and EAL children, a PGCE, an English degree, a level 3 safeguarding certificate and an enhanced DBS on the update service. Im happy to tutor in your home or in public academic spaces such as cafés or libraries.
I’m bubbly, supportive, and passionate about helping children build confidence in their learning. I really encourage my students to challenge themselves and push beyond what they think they can do — while making sure they always know I’m there to support them if they get stuck, have a question or are even suffering from academic workloads, pressure or stress.

If I was to summarise my approach, it would be ‘refreshing’. I also promise Im not a narcissist who has just made this up, this is the most common compliment I receive from families I work with, along with my favourite compliment (which is perhaps my second most common one): “I never liked learning, but now I look forward to your lessons every week!”
