GCSE & A-Level English

English tutoring that builds confidence and delivers results

With 20 years' experience teaching English in schools, I bring structured, one-to-one sessions designed around your child's specific needs — not a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether they're working towards a strong GCSE pass or aiming for top A-Level grades, I tailor every lesson to get them there.

How sessions work

I put together a structured programme based on their needs — aligned to their exam board and school curriculum, with clear goals for each half-term.

One-hour sessions, weekly, either online via Zoom or in person across Greater Manchester. Homework is set and reviewed each week to reinforce learning.
