About Me

All my classes start with your goal in mind - the best way to learn is to know why you are learning. It doesn't matter if you are studying for GCSE or postgraduate exams, you need clarity and structure. In my classes I plan around you, making sure you grow in confidence and capability.

From my background in Psychology, I know that your success is based on my capacity to help you get motivated about what you are learning - classes are always about working together so you know you are fully supported and guided in those areas you need to improve.

I teach a variety of English courses for different levels:

*I/GCSE - English Language and Literature for Cambridge, Edexcel, AQA, NVQ5
I have taught a vast array of texts, plays and poems - ask me if if taught it before, chances are I have :)

*Creative writing - got a book in you? Let's get it ready to launch,

*Psychology and postgrad qualitative research - I am a Chartered Psychologist and Associate Fellow with British Psychological Society and have worked in every sort of psychological working context - academic, research, and clinical - so I can quite truthfully say, I know my stuff. I can help you make sense of putting theory into practice.

*Additional needs - I specialise in working wqith students who have additional learning challenges such as ADHD, Dyslexia or are second language learners.

Dr Anne is a wonderful English tutor. I am so glad we found her. She has been working with my dyslexic son over the last year to prepare him for his English GCSE. She has made a tremendous difference to how he approaches English and how he sees himself. He's discovered a joy and natural flair in writing that I didn't know he had. She is practical, great fun and also very patient. I highly recommend her to anyone.

As always, Dr Anne was instrumental in helping me get better at IGCSE English level A as a non-native. This time, showing me all there is to making a good descriptive writing and giving me additional homework to further understand the topic.

Hi Dr Anne, thank you so much for all your help. I got 9 9s and two 8s. I got a high 9 in English language (which is the one I thought I was worse in) and an 8 in literature only 2 marks off a 9 so I will get it remarked. Overall I am very pleased with my English results and I definitely couldn’t have done it without you !! Many thanks xxx J,

IGCSE Edexcel English Language

Dr. Anne

has been instrumental in helping me understand texts and provided me the structure I needed to succeed in my IGCSE exams. From the beginning of 9th grade - when my results weren’t strong - she helped build my confidence. Thanks to her guidance, I entered the exam room with clear ideas and a strong sense of confidence in my work. I’m truly grateful for all her support!

IGCSE English Language Cambridge

Dr. Anne is a truly compassionate and dedicated tutor. Her wealth of experience and knowledge shines through in every lesson. She has a remarkable way of making the learning process both engaging and enjoyable. I found her support to be incredibly helpful as I worked to overcome my fears around writing. Thanks to her guidance, I not only became more creative but also gained a newfound confidence in my abilities.
IGCSE English Language Cambridge

We found Dr. Anne after a number of other failed English tutors. She was very engaging with my son who she taught up to GCSE level. Connor became much more confident with answering exam style questions after just a few weeks with her. She kept his attention throughout classes and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing an online tutor.

GCSE AQA Language and GCSE AQQ Literature (Macbeth, Inspector Calls, Dr. Jkyll and Mr. Hyde, Power & Conflict poetry)

I worked with Dr. Anne for support with my Masters and it was a great experience. I developed my critical analysis skills and I was supported with research and developing my understanding of social psychology. Dr. Anne has a great breadth of knowledge and is very passionate about making sure all that study with her develop their understanding and academic skills. I would highly recommend.
