Tutor Profile

Our sessions will be tailored to each student's specific needs; I have a wealth of resources to draw from and all materials, including practice papers, wider reading, revision material etc, will be provided. My students always achieve above what they think they are capable of. I focus on building critical thinking skills and confidence in English in the hopes of fostering a love of the subject as well as excellent results. Due to time restrictions as a full time teacher I am only offering online sessions Monday- Thursday.

Fully Registered NZ Teacher

Bachelor of Arts in English Literature- First with Honours.

I have a total of 13 years teaching experience working with children and young adults of all ages, backgrounds and abilities- I am passionate about my job. I am Assistant Head of English and Teacher in Charge of Scholarship at a prestigious Grammar School where
I currently teach NCEA at levels 1, 2 and 3 and Scholarship English as well as Junior English. In the past I have taught GCSE, Cambridge, IB and AQA A levels in the UK. I am familiar with a wide range of texts and I am happy to offer alternative options for exams texts if your child is not engaging with what is being taught in their classroom.
I have been tutoring privately for ten years with great success, reference available on request.

I moved to New Zealand 7 years ago from London and am still in love with the place. I like nothing better than to curl up with a good book or visit the theatre.
