A Comprehensive Introduction to English Literature
English Literature is a broad and expansive subject area. In this course, we'll cover a range of topics and authors inspired by current exam board recommendations and my own personal must-reads and recommendations as supplementary. Of course, this course is tailored to you, so we can cover any era or author that interests you alongside any preparations for examination.
The course can span all the way from the Medieval to Today in terms of content, and provide a grounding in whichever literature you as a student could need. For anyone looking to sign up, please include the book/books or period you would like to be tutored in.

About Me
Hi! I'm James, and I'm a current third-year English student at KCL. Teaching has been a lifelong passion for me, and so has my love and appreciation for literature.Studying with me is very much an individual experience based on whatever you need; for instance, if you love to read, I can send you more material, if you need help with essay writing, we can go through rubrics and my previous first-class A-Level and University essays - it's very much up to you. I'm kind and patient and understand that literature isn't always everyone's cup of tea, but my goal would be to get you as a student to fall in love with at least one piece before our time together ends.

Learner English for beginners and all other learnersAcquiring additional languages will broaden your horizons; it will enable you to interact with a greater number of individuals and enhance your social network, while also enhancing critical thinking skills from diverse perspectives that may result in significant career opportunities. Cultural awareness, improved communication skills and enhanced academic performance are just a few of the benefits of learning new languages or improving your language skills.
For an academic student, I would monitor their current classes, design exercises to enhance their proficiency and concentrate on identifying and ameliorating their weaknesses.
In a lesson for a volunteer learner, I would prioritise speaking practice, since the pronunciation of certain syllables is essential.

English, History, Social Studies, and Exam and Essay PrepThis class will provide students with the necessary analytical tools and principal knowledge they need to succeed in their English, History, or Social Studies classes, on both primary and secondary levels. Coming from a background of sociological research, I have both qualitative and quantitative methodological study methods that inform my tutoring strategies and increase student's general comprehension of key concepts. Beginning with teaching core principles from assigned textbooks and syllabi (of which I independently review and use to create individual and tailored lesson plans), I also provide students with critical thinking skills, grammar lessons, and essay writing tips to ensure that they reach their academic and intellectual potential. I am presently a master's student at LSE and have six years of tutoring and teaching experience in related disciplines, as well as experience working with students with varied learning and cognitive demands.
Hafsa
English for GCSE students for language and literatureHello! My name is Hafsa, and I am passionate about English literature and language. I recently completed my GCSEs with AQA, achieving a grade 4 in both Language and Literature. I've studied key texts such as Macbeth, An Inspector Calls, and various war poems from the Power and Conflict anthology. My approach to learning and teaching is interactive and engaging, incorporating modern methods such as watching film adaptations to enhance understanding of historical and cultural contexts. I'm from East London, and I'm excited to help students excel in their English studies.
Throughout my studies, I've developed a deep appreciation for English literature and a keen understanding of the AQA GCSE syllabus. My experience includes working with students to help them grasp complex themes and improve their analytical skills. I have a knack for making literature relatable and accessible, using a variety of techniques including discussions, multimedia resources, and practical exercises. I understand the importance of aligning lessons with common textbooks like AQA English Language and Literature resources, ensuring that students are well-prepared for their exams.
I focus on creating a friendly and supportive learning environment. I believe that every student has the potential to succeed, and I tailor my teaching to meet individual needs. Whether it's dissecting Shakespeare's language or understanding the social context of a play like An Inspector Calls, I aim to make each lesson interactive and enjoyable. My goal is not only to help students achieve good grades but also to instill a love for the subject that goes beyond the classroom.
I offer classes for GCSE students, particularly those following the AQA syllabus. My lessons are suitable for students of all levels, whether they need help with basic concepts or are looking to refine their analysis and writing skills. I have experience working with teenagers, understanding the challenges they face and providing guidance to build their confidence. Each session is structured to cover key syllabus content, practice exam techniques, and provide personalized feedback on assignments.
Why Choose Me?
Qualified & Experienced: As a GCSE graduate with firsthand experience of the syllabus, I know what it takes to succeed.

Poetry Writing for Beginners and Intermediate WritersWould you like to learn how to write poetry or develop your poetic craft with the assistance of an experienced teacher? In this class, we'll work on shaping new drafts whilst learning about international poetic forms as well as producing some free verse work. We'll edit our material and, if we have multiple sessions, we'll put together a brief collection! We will explore the world of the senses, memories, and connect to language in a new, profound way. My course is not prescriptive, and we'll meet your voice wherever you're at right now.
You'll be taught by a published poet with work experience in the UK and North America. I've taught Creative Writing to university students at a world-leading school, and worked with younger audiences, and I'm happy to work with a variety of forms in English. I studied for my MFA in Creative Writing at the University of British Columbia, and won a scholarship as the strongest poet in my cohort.
