English tutor providing GCSE and A-level lessons

Advert description
Hi! I am currently studying a BA in English and Related Literature at the University of York after receiving A*, A*, A, A in my A-levels and an A* in my literature related EPQ. I'm available for one-on-one tutoring sessions for GCSE English Literature and English Language, A-level English literature or more general essay writing guidance for projects such as the EPQ.
While I am more familiar with the AQA curriculum, I am well-versed in the texts used by other exam boards and am able to tailor my lessons to the specific texts being studied and my student's interests within these while still keeping a focus on the demands of the mark-scheme and the basics of writing in a clear, cohesive way.
I am available for online lessons year round and in-person sessions in Norwich throughout the summer holidays.

My lessons, be they in person or online, are split between covering specific content from the texts being studied, looking at a range of themes and characters, and looking at essay writing itself. I will provide feedback on essays each session, allowing my students to develop a clear, confident writing style so that their arguments themselves can flourish. Through our explorations of the texts, I can ensure that any student has a comprehensive knowledge of their texts, both in terms of literal content and literary form and techniques. This will ensure that they can craft compelling and well-grounded arguments while still meeting the criteria of the mark scheme and are prepared for a wide variety of potential exam questions. I hope to pass on my passion for the subject and am interested in the interests of my students and what sticks with them in each text, allowing them to find something of personal interest within each question and start to carve out a research niche.
