1:1 National 5 and Higher English Tuition

I have 10 years’ experience teaching English in Scottish secondary schools, alongside experience as an SQA marker. This has given me a strong understanding of the National 5 and Higher English courses, assessment criteria and the skills pupils need to succeed in their exams. My strengths include breaking down challenging concepts, developing pupils’ analytical and essay-writing skills, and building confidence in learners of all abilities. I am approachable, patient and supportive, and pride myself on adapting my teaching to meet individual needs. I aim to make lessons engaging, purposeful and tailored to help every pupil make progress and achieve their potential.
