Hello! I’m an English tutor, writer and founder of Curve Learn. As an English tutor, I enjoy working with students of all ages and abilities – from those who are dyslexic, autistic, with ADHD (or ADD) to those studying for Scholarships to Eton and Oxbridge entry.
As well as tutoring, I create online resources and write about English Language and Literature at all levels: SATs, Entrance Exams, GCSE, IGCSE, A-Level, and IB (International Baccalaureate) in English Language and Literature.
Educational consultancy is also available, drawing on my background as Head of Department at a leading British boarding school as well as a Common Entrance and GCSE Examiner, and a graduate of the University of Oxford – MA and BA (Hons) with a PGCE and QTS in teaching English Language and Literature. I am DBS checked and all certificates and references are available on request.
Over the years, I have worked with many high-profile and high-net-worth clients here in the UK and internationally.
