English Lessons in Penryn

With over four years’ experience as a secondary classroom teacher, I’ve had the privilege of teaching English Language and Literature to students aged 11 through to GCSE. I’m now looking to bring that same passion and energy into a more tailored, one-on-one learning learning environment.

Based in beautiful Cornwall, I’m inspired daily by the sea, long coastal walks, and the quiet magic of a good book. Reading has always been a cornerstone of my life, and I strive to pass that love on to every student I teach. Whether it's unlocking the emotional power of poetry or helping a learner find their voice in persuasive writing, my goal is always the same: to inspire confidence, curiosity, and creativity.

I believe that every student can thrive with the right encouragement and support.

Tutoring Experience

With a degree in English Literature and a PGCE in Secondary Education, I bring over 4 years of hands-on classroom experience to my teaching. I specialise in the AQA GCSE English Literature and Language curriculum, helping students unlock their full potential through engaging, tailored support. Whether it's mastering Shakespeare, tackling unseen poetry, or boosting analytical writing skills, I offer expert guidance that builds confidence and delivers results.

Tutoring Approach

I'm a warm and friendly English tutor who believes that the best learning happens when students feel truly supported and understood. With over four years of experience teaching English in secondary schools, I specialise in guiding students through the AQA GCSE English Literature and Language courses with patience, encouragement, and a genuine love for the subject. I’m passionate about helping learners build confidence in their reading and writing, and I aim to make lessons both inspiring and approachable.
