A former university teacher and examiner in English and Philosophy. I have experience in both independent and state schools and have worked as a publisher’s editor, acquiring a professionally sharp eye for the English language.
Twenty years' experience in higher and secondary education and twenty as a professional tutor, teaching A-level English Literature, GCSE English Language and Literature, and English for 11+ and 13+ Common Entrance and independent schools entrance examinations.
I teach students to read and write! As they progress through school, they are required to look at language in unfamiliar ways, grasp extended texts, dispel preconceptions, wait patiently for understanding to dawn, and unfold their own ideas in coherent fashion. I know their difficulties, and by attending to them have been able to lead my students on to the best examination results of which they are capable.
