My lessons are designed to feel collaborative, not intimidating – and since I’m only an online tutor, think of them as a flexible space to explore ideas, ask questions without judgment, and grow at your own pace. I typically structure sessions around your specific goals: if you’re prepping for exams, we’ll break down past papers, practice time management, and refine answer techniques. For writing support, we’ll work through drafts together, focusing on clarity, structure, and voice – with plenty of opportunities to experiment and get feedback. For text analysis, we’ll dive into themes, language choices, and context, using discussion to help you develop your own interpretations.

I use a mix of online formats to keep things engaging: video calls, interactive slides, short digital activities, and real-world examples that tie English to your interests. The dynamic is always two-way – drawing on my mentoring experience, I’ll share my knowledge but also love learning from your perspectives, making lessons personal and memorable. I check in regularly to see what’s working and adjust on the fly.

Many students tell me they feel more comfortable speaking up with me than in formal class settings – that’s because I prioritise a safe, supportive atmosphere where mistakes are framed as part of learning and developing. By the end of each session, you’ll leave with clear next steps, a better understanding of the topic, and a little more confidence in your abilities – all built on the same caring approach that’s served me so well in mentoring.
