I am a multilinguist with considerable experience in teaching French and Spanish to a diverse range of students. I have a 100% success rate in terms of my students improving their academic grades.
I am extremely passionate about my subject and committed to understanding and engaging with each new student's learning needs. I tailor my individual teaching programmes to ensure each student is able to develop and move confidently towards their goal, whether it be academic or personal.
I choose to work with students who are committed to working towards their goal - they don't have to love the subject to begin with, they just have to want to improve, the love comes later, often when they discover how simple it can be and they start to see improvements in their ability and understanding!
Among my previous students are Yas, a Spanish GCSE student who went from a predicted D to receiving an A* overall in 14 months, Roderick, who with no prior teaching since his French GCSE 16 months before we began, received an A* at French A Level after 7 months of home-schooling with me and Kendall, a French IB student who went from grade 3/4 to achieving a final grade 6/7 in 20 months - she called me up in Guatemala on results day so I knew it must be good news!
Testimonials:
"James tutored both my daughters for GCSE Spanish and they both received A*. This was particularly impressive with my eldest daughter who was on a Grade D at the end of Year 10. James accelerated Yasmin's learning rapidly over 6 months in Year 11, and changed her attitude towards Spanish from a boring difficult subject to her favourite! Aside from his in-depth understanding of the curriculum and effective teaching techniques, James is a lovely person with a great sense of humour, and the girls really enjoyed his company. We'd highly recommend James to anyone wanting to improve their grades and language skills."
Zaya F - Spanish GCSE
"James was simply brilliant in giving my son confidence in his ability to learn languages, which ultimately led to GCSE success. He possesses a magical ability to build self-esteem. Invaluable. Fabulous. Very highly recommended."
Donna G – French & Spanish IGCSE
"James tutored me in French for just over a year for the international baccalaureate. Marked out of 7, I originally achieved 3-4s in all my examinations. James helped with reading, writing and oral presentations. He helped me to increase my confidence in speaking and also taught me invaluable techniques for verb conjugations. In the end I was able to achieve a 6/7 in my final IB results. Thank you James !"
Kendall U - French International Baccalaureate
"James was instrumental in getting my son to an A* for his Spanish A Level this year. Over a period of 8 months James worked to improve Omar’s original predicted grade of B, focussing on some core grammar which had been missed by the school and developing his reading, writing and oral skills. James often made himself available at short notice to review and offer feedback on Omar’s practice essays for the literature part of the course. We are delighted with the result and with the high level of professional service that James provides. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend."
Mehta F - Spanish A Level
“My daughter Chloe was struggling with Spanish during year 11, she failed her mock and was really worried. We found James and he worked steadily with her for the three months leading up to her GCSE. I’m delighted to say she achieved a 6(B)!! Incredible...a fail to a B in only 25 hours tutoring! Thank you James, she couldn’t have done it without you!”
Beth W – Spanish GCSE
James tutored my daughter for just over a year at French Pre-U. Our aim was to secure a comfortable distinction. James knew the syllabus inside out and ensured no stone had been left unturned in her knowledge and exam technique. We were delighted but not too surprised when the final result came back a D1. We’re thrilled with James, his approach and the care he brings to each session. Such a star.
Mikael J – Cambridge Pre U French
"James is an amazing teacher. He got my daughter to a B in French GCSE from a predicted D, and my son to a B in Spanish GCSE from a predicted E. This helped my daughter to get to UCL and put the Russell Group within my son's reach. His teaching style is unique. Within minutes of arrival, he had won the respect of both my teenagers. He made himself available at weekends and in the evenings both in person and over Skype. I am so grateful for his help. I highly recommend him."
Rachel G - French & Spanish GCSE
"James is an outstanding teacher - he taught my son to find his own motivation & the confidence he needed to excel in Spanish. He brings the language to life and creates a self sufficiency in study habits that was wonderful to observe - the GCSE process was made palatable and non daunting ! I would wholly recommend him to anyone looking for a tutor that cares about the child in the most holistic sense and leaves them with the skills to tackle languages independently post their time with him - he was an absolute star !"
Shaleen Y - Spanish IGCSE
"James is one of the best tutors I have ever met. He is clearly passionate about teaching and has such an engaging and enthusiastic manner. Anyone who is lucky enough to come across James has found a true gem. I cannot recommend him highly enough."
Helen S - Spanish GCSE

Hi! My name is Paula, and I am British-Chilean. I have a PGCE from which I graduated with a 1st, over 9 years of experience teaching languages, and have been an official examiner for A Levels and GCSEs.
When teaching students that are preparing for their exams, I adopt an exam-focused approach, dedicating time to each language skill—listening, speaking, reading, and writing—individually. I incorporate past papers into lessons to build confidence and develop effective exam strategies.
I also teach students in primary, as well as adults wishing to start or continue learning a language. For younger learners, my approach is interactive, utilising videos, songs, and games to make learning engaging. For adult learners, depending on your targets, our focus can be anywhere from conversation to career-oriented language, and we would use a variety of media too. I tailor my lessons to each student’s goals and unique learning style, and I believe in making studying fun and motivating. This way, a student can build confidence, improve learning effectiveness, and maximise their potential.
My students consistently achieve excellent progress and have fun during our lessons. In our first session, I will assess your current level, determine key targets, and create a tailored program designed to help you achieve your goals.

I am currently a business lecture at UCB , however, I have experience of teaching primary, secondary, 11 plus and assignment support at HE level. Teaching has always been a passion and I am extremely dedicated to my job role. I enjoy all types of teaching and have taught all ages and in all types of environments. Alongside teaching English, maths, and science, etc, I also like to focus on the child’s holistic development which I believe is pivotal. I also do private tutoring online on one to one basis and group sessions.
I like to teach my children through joyful interaction which assists them in reaching their full potential and achieving above and beyond their level of expectations. I have seen dramatic improvements from children who started off with very little or no English-speaking skills at all in becoming the highest achievers, furthermore, receiving recognition and awards in their educational institutions. I am very soft-hearted towards the children I teach, nevertheless, this does not mean that they can get away with not completing their studies.
I am extremely flexible and can easily adapt quickly to new situations. You will find me highly empathic towards the children and very understanding, regardless of their age. All people big or small should be treated with the utmost respect. I do my best to dedicate my spare time to supporting charity events, group talks, and teaching children.

Hi there,
My name is Christian. I’ve recently finished my MA in Comparative Literary Studies, specialising in American literature, Theory and Culture at Goldsmiths University, and am looking to pursue a career in education. I’m passionate about making the humanities engaging and enjoyable, which I feel is something easily achievable through patience, creativity and strong relationships between a student and teacher. Where I thrive is when i'm helping to make literature, philosophy, critical theory, as well as the many tenants of writing effective essays understandable and accessible to a range of students from varying backgrounds and educational requirements.
Before my MA program, I completed my BA in English and American Literature at Goldsmiths University London in 2018. While my studies have mainly centred on American literature so far, the flexible nature of my program has enabled me to study a wide breadth of literature as well texts of a different medium from a multitude of cultures and periods. While providing me with a firm grasp of the major cultural, artistic and literary movements, my studies have greatly developed my analytic abilities across a range of different systems of thought. Teaching me to effectively; distil complex information into an accessible format, develop lines of critical reasoning, and construct compelling arguments from independent research. These abilities, when paired with open and clear channels of communication, prove invaluable as a teacher, allowing me to lead students through studies which might initially seem challenging and complicated, to a comprehensive understanding of the subject at hand. In regards to my particular areas of specialism, I have an in-depth understanding of contemporary American fiction and continental philosophy, having written both my undergraduate and graduate thesis’ on the intersections of the two. And concerning my past academic performance, I was awarded an upper second class honours for my undergraduate degree and have recently received a high level merit for my MA program.
I've tutored many students one to one over the past year in subjects ranging from English literature and Language to general essay writing, and I'd love to build upon my experience to teach those at a variety of different levels. Counterpart to this, I'm a versatile and effective proof reader, having successfully helped my students draft and edit countless essays.
To paint a bit more of a picture about myself; in my free time I organise a series of philosophy reading groups, write creatively, do lots of reading for both research and pleasure, and cycle more than I maybe should.

I am an art historian who loves teaching people of all ages and abilities. I have worked as a researcher and educator in international art galleries in Mayfair and Zurich, and have taught BA students at the University of Zurich. Currently based in London, I am working towards my PhD in History of Art at the University of Zurich and KU Linz, where I have also taught.
As well as expertise is in Asian and Western art since 1960, I have a very broad and robust knowledge of all periods of History of Art as taught in the United Kingdom. For A Level students, I am familiar with the AQA syllabus and find it an excellent teaching guide. For university students, I am happy to work with the course outlines and reading lists provided by the individual institution. I am also familiar with Cambridge Pre-U.
Before I start teaching, I like to speak with the student and their family to establish the current level, identify any gaps and jointly create the learning objectives, from which I develop a study programme. I am happy to teach a course from beginning to end, or to jump in to cover any gaps or develop greater aptitude in certain areas, as required.
In History of Art, I teach A Level, BA and MA students, as well as adults who would like to develop their interest in art. I also guide museum and gallery visits, which I find are an excellent way to facilitate learning.
Because my academic work inherently relies on reading and writing, while my research encompasses English Literature, I also teach English Language and Literature up to A Level. I also help younger children with reading, writing, comprehension and spelling.
Please drop me a message!
Many thanks,
Louise

I am a PhD graduate from the English and Comparative Literature department at King’s College London, with several years of teaching experience in the department. I have extensive experience lecturing and leading seminar-style teaching for undergraduate and postgraduate students. I have designed and delivered original curriculums and online learning courses, downloaded by hundreds of learners worldwide. I regularly assess essays and examinations, providing detailed feedback on argument strength, critical analysis, and structural coherence to help students refine their academic writing.
My primary role is as a grant innovation consultant, helping tech start-ups, small businesses, and research institutions secure funding for their projects. I have experience writing and editing a wide range of grant applications, from early-stage innovation funding to large-scale research grants. I also assist in crafting compelling proposals for PhD research, postdoctoral fellowships, and academic research projects across various disciplines. My expertise lies in aligning project goals with funder requirements, showcasing innovation and impact, and guiding clients through the often complex funding landscape to maximize their chances of success.
I have taught English as a foreign language to non-native speakers across Cambodia, Thailand, and Vietnam, helping students build conversational skills, expand their vocabulary, and improve grammar accuracy and sentence construction. I have also volunteered in primary and secondary schools as a tutor, supporting students with special needs and learning difficulties who struggle with English.
I specialise in improving the written communication and critical thinking skills of GCSE and A-Level students in arts and humanities subjects: philosophy, history, ancient history, politics, and especially English Language and Literature. I am well-versed in the texts, syllabuses, and assessed content of major examination boards, including Edexcel, AQA, International Baccalaureate, Cambridge IGCSE, WJEC, and Scottish Highers. I have also helped students prepare for Oxford interviews, admissions tests, GAMSAT, BMAT, and IELTS English proficiency exams.
I am a naturally patient and adaptable teacher, committed to tailoring each lesson to suit individual needs and learning motivations. I set high standards for student effort and respect, with a strong focus on fostering progress and academic success through thoughtful, responsive teaching strategies.

My name is George, and I am the right person for your tutoring needs. I have had years of experience privately tutoring, preparing many students for 8+ and 11+ exams, as well as GCSEs in English and Mathematics. I adore teaching, helping to develop confidence in my students, and infusing them with excitement for my subjects.
I attended Highgate School, where I achieved As in my English and French A-Levels, and B in my Mathematics A-Level. I attained 6 A*s and 3 As in my GCSEs. I am currently studying English Literature with a minor in Linguistics at the University of Manchester.
I am very encouraging towards my students. This is absolutely key in bringing out their highest levels of potential. I genuinely care for them, and I love to witness my students progressing. I create an environment where students feel completely comfortable and at ease, and can relate to them.
I am extremely methodical in my approach towards teaching, which is uniquely tailored towards each student. I find out where weaknesses lie, and accordingly target them. I am very skilled in presenting pieces of information in digestible ways.
I have written many articles for the Student Newspaper. I am also on the Student News Team, and I present a musically focused show on Student Radio, where I interview high- profile musicians. I was awarded 'Best Newcomer' to Student Media this year by the Student Union.
I also write and perform poetry, which has been played on BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra, and has hundreds of thousands of streams on Spotify. I have therefore developed a uniquely intricate insight into the mechanics of language, which comes across in my teaching.
I teach English to those preparing for 8+ all the way up to those doing their A- Levels, as well as French and Mathematics up to GCSE. I am highly knowledgeable in the respective exam board requirements.
I am extremely organised, flexible and able to chat when needed!

I teach in a fun unpredictable fashion to always keep students on their toes - combining subject areas to inspire them and relate their skills to real life problems and events eg. politics, resources, and books. This is important as school isn't where studying starts and ends - it is at home and beyond.
I have taught for a few years whilst studying a degree in optometry, and have knowledge in science and maths, but also in English, with experience in books, poetry, and other media, including analysing online medias. I have taught in the local area, of students of all backgrounds and abilities.
The time frame and availability is limited to lockdown and maybe longer if exceptional, and hence I am available any time and day for the next foreseen period.

Everybody has different needs and requirements, which means that there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to determining a "perfect" tutor for someone. At Tutor House, we have an extensive list of English tutors that have expertise in various areas. Therefore, it's recommended to spend some time considering what your actual needs are before booking a free trial call with any of the tutors. Think about whether you would be most interested in hiring a private English tutor or getting online tuition, and determine if you require assistance with learning the English language or if you are specifically looking for help with a certain aspect of the language, such as literature and creative writing. Additionally, consider how much time you are willing to dedicate to getting English tuition and what your budget is for hiring a tutor. Once you are certain about your requirements, you can begin searching for an English tutor in Suffolk that is perfect for all your needs!
How much does it cost to hire an English tutor in Suffolk?
The cost of hiring an English tutor in Suffolk will depend on a number of factors. For instance, the more experience and qualifications your tutor has, the higher their prices may be. You will also want to take into consideration whether our private or online English tutors suit you more. Additionally, your budget will also impact the price of hiring a tutor.

Business English refers to the use of language in professional or academic settings. This can include speaking and writing skills, such as communicating clearly and effectively with colleagues or clients, negotiating contracts, creating proposals or reports, and participating in meetings and presentations. Improving conversational skills is essential for professional success, as it enables individuals to communicate confidently and professionally in a variety of business settings. Additionally, strong conversational skills can help to build relationships and network with colleagues or clients, furthering one's career opportunities in the long term.
Many students join language schools to work on their English skills, and while that has a few advantages, there are multiple drawbacks, including high costs, limited flexibility in scheduling and curriculum, and a lack of individualised attention. That's why hiring an English tutor is an excellent idea. One major benefit of hiring an English tutor is that you can get English tuition tailored to your specific needs and goals, which can help you to focus on the areas of English that are most challenging for you. Private tutors can also work with you at your own pace and schedule, giving you more flexibility in your learning experience.
Another benefit of hiring an English tutor rather than signing up for a language school is that you can often get more personalised and focused instruction at a lower cost. Many private tutors offer affordable rates and flexible pricing structures, while many language schools tend to be quite expensive. Furthermore, by working one-on-one with an experienced English tutor, you will get the support you deserve, as your teacher will tailor their way of teaching English to suit your learning style. Overall, hiring a private English tutor can be an excellent option for learners looking to boost their business English skills and achieve success in their professional or academic pursuits.
There are several things you can do to improve your English skills if you want to get into a prestigious institute like Cambridge University. One strategy is to practice reading, writing, and speaking regularly with other English speakers. You can also consider investing in language tutoring to help you build your vocabulary and comprehension skills. At Tutor House, we have some of the best tutors available to help you improve your English skills and build confidence. So, If you want to hire an English tutor in Suffolk, don't hesitate to reach out to us, and we'll be happy to help you find the perfect English teacher according to your needs and requirements. Alternatively, you can browse our website and use the filters to explore some of the best tutors in the town.
