A-Level English Literature Tutors

I am deeply passionate about teaching Politics and English Literature to students of all ages. From a young age, I have had a fascination and curiosity with English literature. I believe that understanding the complexity of the human experience through mediums such as storytelling is the doorway to engaging thoroughly with people and one's self. My adoration for English informed my interest in politics. Looking at policy and ideology became so pivotal in understanding the world from beyond a literary perspective but in understanding the world in a critical and real way. I hope to provide the tool and extend the same curiosity and interest to the students I tutor. I believe that I can tailor my teaching to suit the student's needs by being able to find pockets of weakness and advance these into hard earned and acquired strengths. My goal is not only to allow students to reach their goals but more importantly to allow students to believe in themselves and gain academic confidence that will follow them for life! from, Chumba

Hello! I am a student at the University of York going into my second year of my degree in Theatre, and I am looking to tutor in English Literature, English Language, and Drama & Theatre! I am hardworking and dedicated to creating lessons well adapted to a students individual requirements and their confidence in the subject. I achieved Two A grades in English Literature and Drama & Theatre at A Level, and a B in History, and my coursework in English and History received A* grades. I am a passionate and enthusiastic person with a love of all things literature and writing, something I hope to be able to encourage in my teaching. I am also used to positions of responsibility, having worked with children in a professional teaching environment several times before, and I have editorial skills and experience, as I run the student newspaper at my University.

While one-on-one tutoring cannot fully replace normal education as the primary way of learning, it is always a valuable aid for the student's academic success. I offer highly personalised tutoring in the subjects of English Literature, English Language, German language and other extracurricular skills such as: academic writing, bringing courses for university, personal statement writing and creative writing. My lessons are an open-minded mix of exam preparation techniques, lessons tailored individually to the student on the content of their course, and lessons focused on the discussion of feedback of the student's own work. In addition, I also offer bridging courses for students considering pursuing English Literature, Language, or Creative Writing at University. I am currently in the 3rd year of a German and English Literature undergraduate programme at the University of Edinburgh. You can normally catch me tutoring from the beautiful and needlessly rainy Scottish capital. In 2023/24 I am on a year-long academic exchange at the Freie Universität in Berlin

Hey! My name is Amine, and I am currently in my second year at King’s College London, studying Law. My passion for English literature and History influenced my decision to pursue them as A-level subjects. I understand that there is a significant leap from GCSEs to A levels, and I am committed to facilitating a more enjoyable learning experience during this period. In my role as your tutor, I will consider the specific areas of concern and tailor lessons to cater to your individual needs. This will encompass providing assistance in content learning and refining exam techniques, both of which are essential to maximise academic performance. I look forward to helping you access your potential!

Hey, my name is Elisabeth and I am a First Year Undergraduate student at the University of York. I study English Literature but I am also fascinated by Philosophy and Ancient History.

My name is Bethel. A Warwick Law Graduate and driven tutor who enjoys providing students with a new way to learn the content taught at schools. My aim to install greater confidence into students to improve performance in examinations. Through my studying, I have developed a range of simple and effective techniques concerned with breaking down long-form literature and processing logic-based information. These skills are extremely helpful in the areas of English Literature, English Language, and Religious Studies. Using these methods I attained A,A* and A** respectively at GCSE. With a second A in English Literature writing my A-levels. For each topic, I provide students with an organised method that they can utilise and apply inside the 1-1's and outside their schooling. With my straightforward explanation of complex poems, literature and religious ideology, I have aided many students to exceed their academic expectations. Being a graduate of law, a social science, I go beyond just teaching and seek to cultivate an environment where students feel confident enough to stay in communication and take a positive action towards learning outside of classes.
