Peter Croft

Hello! I’m an experienced English teacher with over four years of classroom experience, dedicated to helping every student reach their full potential. Throughout my teaching career, I’ve worked with a wide range of learners — from high-ability students aiming for top grades to nurture groups building confidence and core skills. This experience has made me highly adaptable, ensuring that my approach always meets the unique needs, strengths, and goals of each pupil I teach.

I believe that students learn best when they feel safe, supported, and understood. My lessons are warm, welcoming, and structured to create a positive space where learners can take risks, ask questions, and grow in confidence. I work hard to build genuine relationships with my students, as I know that feeling comfortable in the classroom is key to progress.

My teaching style is interactive and engaging, with a strong focus on questioning and oracy. I encourage open discussion, helping students explore ideas deeply and express themselves clearly — essential skills for both GCSE success and life beyond the classroom.

Whether your goal is to boost exam performance, improve analytical writing, or simply gain confidence in English, I’m passionate about helping you get there. My aim is always to make learning meaningful, enjoyable, and tailored to each student’s individual journey.
