Former English teacher and English tutor

Alan supported my daughter through Nat 5 and Higher English. He has a flair for connecting with young people and explaining not only the contents of the course work but also how to understand what the questions mean and how to answer them. He has a straight forward approach that helps the learner to understand not only the content but also the approach to take. His knowledge of literature and the courses, his flexible approach in trying to meet the student where they are in their learning foster a positive a productive working relationship. We are very grateful for the effort and support Alan provided and delighted with the results. I recommend Alan as a tutor and would not hesitate to entrust him with my children again.
