Find Your Perfect IGCSE English Literature Tutor

Hello! I’m Krishav, and I believe learning should feel more like an exploration than a chore. With solid roots in economics and mathematics, I’ll guide your child through everything from GCSE and IGCSE up to IB and A-level Economics and Mathematics, and even help them conquer English at the GCSE/IGCSE or IB level. My sessions are anything but dry: expect lively problem-solving challenges, real-life case studies, and interactive activities designed to make tricky concepts click. I’m attuned to the fact that every mind is wired differently and I take pride in crafting lessons that adapt to each learner’s pace and preferences—whether that means breaking down complex theories into bite-sized puzzles or building confidence through step-by-step walkthroughs. I emphasise blending structure with spontaneity covering vital exam specs, but we also engaging in games, debates, and real-world examples that keep students motivated. I can also provide a wealth of information and advice on career choices, university applications and other aspects focusing on the more professional and career-orientated part of student life. My goal is simple, boost grades, and most importantly, making sure your child has fun learning. If you’re looking for someone who’s professional, personable, and passionate about seeing students shine, let’s get started—and let the fun begin!

I'm a Global Development with International Relations student at the University of Manchester, with A-levels in Geography, History, and Politics. Passionate about the humanities, I also loved English language, literature, and creative writing at GCSE. As a dedicated ballet dancer, I bring creativity, analytical thinking, and enthusiasm to tutoring.

As a social sciences student at Durham University, I am uniquely equipped to combine a holistic approach and a more in-depth approach to my tutoring, depending on the individual learning style of each student. I can tutor students of a wide range of abilities, from beginner to advanced, in French and English Literature, having achieved A*s and 9’s in both subjects at A-Level and GCSE, respectively. I can also tutor English Language up to GCSE standard, having achieved grade 9 when I sat the exam. I graduated from Wycombe Abbey School in 2023, where I obtained twelve 9’s and an 8 in my GCSEs, and four A*s at A-Level. I have done a range of informal tutoring for GCSE and Common Entrance, and have also volunteered as an English Teaching Assistant in a local primary school. From my personal experience of being slightly less confident in certain subjects and from tutoring others, I found I really enjoy helping students achieve their full potential and boosting their confidence, especially in subjects that may not come naturally to them. I am conscious that everyone has their own unique learning style, so I will tailor my lesson plan to each student’s personal aims in order to make sessions engaging and interactive. I have full working proficiency in French, and can provide assistance with all aspects of the exam, including listening, reading, writing and grammar. Having completed several intensive language courses in France, one of my strengths as a French tutor lies in conversation practice - I can therefore also help with the oral exam, including the Independent Research Project, implementing complex sentence structures, presentation technique and using sophisticated vocabulary. While I can tutor for all exam specifications, I will be of particular use in AQA A-Level and AQA GCSE, as these are the exam boards I sat at school. For English Literature, I can cover a wide range of skills such as essay technique, text analysis (play, book, or poem), grammar and language. While I can tutor a wide variety of texts depending on the exam board, I can provide specialised knowledge in the following texts: Hamlet, The Great Gatsby, The Grapes of Wrath, The Duchess of Malfi, Paradise Lost, A Streetcar Named Desire, Purple Hibiscus, The Crucible, Jane Eyre, and Romeo and Juliet. I can provide support with a broad range of resources and key skills, especially with the CIE GCSE and the OCR A-Level specifications. For English Language, I can also provide useful resources and support with all aspects of the exam paper, including comprehension, grammar and the extended writing section. As I sat the CIE GCSE exam, I can provide specialised knowledge of this specification.

My teaching approach emphasises on patience, encouragement, and adapting to each student’s individual learning style. Beyond academics, I’ve worked with children with autism and cerebral palsy and volunteer with Make a Smile to help bring joy to children with additional needs.

My name is Lucas. I have been a lifelong lover and student of the English language and achieved a 2:1 in English from UCL, graduating 2025. I remember my time both learning and teaching English at an A Level and IGCSE fondly. I believe these subjects to be integral to formulating a growing student's capacity to think critically and closely analyse the written and spoken word, which in this particular day and age is more important than anything and serves as a distinguishing factor between themselves and a growing proportion of the population struggling with literacy and critical reading independent of external tools. I want to pay forward the efforts from my predecessors and continue teaching from this lineage which has given me an incredible toolset to view and approach the world, and the breadth of perspectives this subject can introduce to any person, regardless of age or stage of life.

Hi! I'm Britney, and I’m excited to share my passion for learning with you. I have a solid background in Politics, Economics, English, and debating, achieving 9 A* grades in my IGCSEs. Having achieved an A* in A Level English Literature and a grade 9 in IGCSE English Language and Literature, I draw on my own exam experience to guide students towards success. I help them break down questions, structure their essays effectively, and write with clarity and confidence. I am experienced with the Edexcel and Cambridge exam boards for IGCSE, as well as the OCR exam board for A Levels, and I tailor my teaching to meet the specific requirements of each. Moreover, I’ve received offers from LSE, UCL, and Durham to study Politics and International Relations, as well as History, Politics, and Economics, which has familiarized me with the UCAS admissions process. I am more than happy to guide you through it!

Hi, I'm Sara. I offer one-to-one tutoring in English Literature and Language, Business, and History - subjects I'm genuinely passionate about and love helping students engage with at a deeper level. My approach isn't about memorising mark schemes or rote-learning generic answers. It's about building real understanding, developing your confidence, and finding what makes each subject click for you personally. I work with students at A-Level and GCSE level, tailoring every session to where you are right now and where you want to be. Whether that's improving your essay structure, sharpening your analysis, mastering key concepts, or preparing for an exam, we'll build a plan that works for you. Prior to my degree I took two gap years, in which I gained in-person experience teaching English as a foreign language. I'm currently in the second year of my BSc Social Sciences degree at University College London (UCL), one of the UK's leading universities - so you can be confident that the knowledge and skills I bring to each session are up to date, academically rigorous, and genuinely informed by what it takes to succeed at a high level. Going through both my GCSEs and A Levels in COVID years, I know what good (and bad!) e-learning can look like. I believe the best tutoring feels less like a lesson and more like a conversation - one where no question is too basic, curiosity is always encouraged, and progress happens naturally. If you'd like to find out more or book a first session, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
