Recent English Literature A Level Tutor Class Reviews

Kirsten - Abigail- English Literature - A Level
Monday May 2025
Kirsten has been the best tutor I could have asked for; she has tailored everything to my needs, reignited my love of literature in an academic context, and generally gone above and beyond. I could not recommend her more to anyone and everyone studying GCSE or A level English (the latter of which I studied with Kirsten). She is a wonderful tutor with a genuine love of her subject and if I could rate her ten stars I would! Thank you for everything, Kirsten.
