I am a published writer and experienced dyslexia specialist English literature/language tutor based in Northenden, Manchester. Currently, I have a PhD in creative writing from the University of Glasgow. I focus much of my tutoring around creative practice and the enjoyment of reading and writing. In turn, I appreciate a learning space that is relaxed and informal, helping the student find their love for this wonderful and enriching subject. I have experience tutoring 11-18 year olds (KS3, GCSE, AS/ALevel), specifically those who struggle with anxiety and self-confidence. I tutor English Literature, English Language, Media Studies and Film Studies.

Hello, I'm Hannah!
I am an English and CELTA-Qualified EFL Teacher with over 7 years’ experience. Alongside, my own client base. I work with all ages, levels, nationalities and needs.
Prior to being a full-time teacher, I worked in one of the UK’s leading EFL schools as a Teacher and Course Manager
I have a BA in English Literature with Creative Writing, as well as an MA in Literature from the University of York.
I also speak Spanish to B2 Level
EXAMPLES OF WHAT I TEACH:
- Essay Writing Skills and Proofreading Feedback
- EFL (including IELTS, Cambridge Exams)
- KS2, 3 and 4 English Language and Literature
- Grammar Practice
- Creative Writing and Editing Techniques
MY PROMISE:
- Teach the content required in preparation for the relevant exams, curriculum and/or identified needs
- Ensure examination questions are practised and ensure understanding of the mark scheme specifications
- Provide free consultations reflecting on the progress of the student at their request
- Be diligent on providing excellent tutelage
MY APPROACH:
It’s all about you!
You are the director of your tuition. While following the curriculum/exam board is paramount, getting where you want to be starts by meeting you where you are.
I strongly encourage students to be self-reflective and think about what areas they find most challenging. This is helpful in determining how to structure the exam and lesson content in a direction that is going to challenge and strengthen the target areas.
Most of all, I want my students to thrive and leave class knowing or feeling confident about something new.
My learning style is all about you. You should be the director of your education and needs.
While following the curriculum is paramount, my philosophy is about meeting my students where they are at academically and working towards where they would like to be.
From flashcards to worksheets, I create bespoke resources that are tailor-made to your lessons. My tuition is student-driven; we build a plan together based on your learning style and expectations.
Your first lesson will be a needs analysis where we discuss the direction of your tuition and build rapport for an effective learning environment.
Finally, I'm a good teacher because I am an enthusiastic learner, I am an avid reader and currently learning languages myself - Spanish, so I understand what's like being a language student too. I care about my students and I am invested in their growth as students and confident learners.
Most importantly, I love what I do, so if you want enthusiastic teaching, engaging and professional lessons, let's get started today!

Teaching Experience
Maxim has tutored since graduating from Oxford in 2019. He has delivered over 1000 hours of tutoring, a testament to his commitment and dedication. In 2022, one of Maxim's students scored an A* in A-Level Politics, despite the Covid-19 pandemic. His students regularly gain top grades in A-levels and coursework. In 2021, both long-term Politics students got their desired grades and went to their dream universities.
Maxim has experience across the Humanities, including various A-Level Politics syllabi and exam boards.
The Oxbridge tutorial system (going through essays forensically and discussing them in depth) is central to Maxim's tutoring. These were, in his own words, "the best years of my life, with a learning experience I'm keen to share."
Testimonials
“The amount of history and your ability to create a timeline in order to help me learn the syllabus, although (it) may seem like common sense, makes the course much easier to understand thanks to you.”
Andreas (A-Level Politics student)
“Maxim tutored our son regularly throughout his A level Politics course. He was awarded an A* in his exam. Maxim has extensive background knowledge about the subject, exam technique and offers patience and persistence. Our son said he misses the sessions now the exams are over, which is a real endorsement. I would thoroughly recommend Maxim.”
Jane (parent of former Politics student)
Bio
Maxim is a Masters student in London, studying Broadcast Journalism. Before that, he spent two years working exclusively as a freelance History and Politics tutor.
He spent three years at Trinity College, Oxford reading History and Politics. At Oxford, Maxim focused on British and international politics, achieving high marks in International Relations and US Politics. While a student, Maxim also appeared on University Challenge and was twice an elected member of the Oxford Union's governing body.
Maxim got three A grades at A-Level, notching up 100% in UK Politics with additional success in US Politics. Maxim received offers from LSE and Warwick along with Oxford.

I am a graduate from Imperial College London and Westminster School with a master's degree in Mechanical Engineering MEng and have undertaken research at Imperial College London in the fields of green hydrogen and thermofluids. I also proofread scholarly articles and research journal papers for institutions such as ETH Zurich and Imperial College London.
I have tutored for approximately 5500 hours over eight years and during this period I have helped over fifty students gain entry to higher education, that are currently studying STEM subjects at top universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, and Imperial College. The vast majority have obtained A*s and As at A-Level. I also tutor several degree level students, five of which have just been awarded First Class and Upper Second Class honours in their respective subjects.
I find the process of improving a student’s understanding very rewarding and focus on a wholesome learning experience, always inviting my students to ask questions and attempt problems by themselves before I explain a solution and subsequently work through similar problems step-by-step until the content is grasped. The main emphasis in my lessons is to develop sound conceptual understanding, followed by fluency in answering practise questions, thus targeting excellent performance in exams. I also offer advice on personal statements and help with interview and admission test preparation, and am at your disposal throughout the week for any phone calls about homework problems, university applications, careers, and so on.
All this experience throughout has kept me aware of the challenges young learners face, the kindness, understanding, and dedication that lies in a good teacher, and the importance of tailoring communication and teaching styles to the needs of the particular student. On that note, finding a tutor who fits well with your requirements is never easy so do reach out to me for a short and free video chat so I can answer any questions you might have.
In my spare time I hike and compose music for film (I also teach music). Instruments that I play include cello, piano, guitar, and I also sing.
Please see below my qualifications and I look forward to meeting you!
2015: Ten A*s at GCSE and iGCSE
2017: Three A*s at A-Level in Maths, Further Maths, and Physics (100% in five exams)
2022: Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering at Imperial College London (Hons)

Hello! I'm a recent architecture graduate, and I want to help your child achieve their potential and stimulate a positive attitude towards learning. It's as simple as that.
In my opinion, the root of successful tuition consists of three factors: the attention the tutor pays to the student's learning methods, the passion the tutor has for the subject and the enjoyment the tutor receives from the act of teaching.
My teaching methods hinge on the recognition that every child is unique. There is no "one size fits all" solution to learning, and hence I establish as quickly as possible which of the various techniques works best for my students and then apply the relevant tutoring methods. As well as maximising academic progress, this approach gives you more value for money.
I know that a concept fully understood and a method embedded and consolidated through practice will arm your child with the confidence and skills they need to tackle any question or problem successfully. I also know that the key to success is effective study skills and habits. I can show your child how to organise their learning into easy to revise chunks that work for them. This is a skill that will carry them through their whole education.
Anyone who knows me well knows my three main passions to be architecture, Spanish and football (because I rarely talk about anything else!). Unfortunately Tutor House don't offer football coaching, so instead I've opted to tutor the beautifully logical language of Spanish and the disciplines that underpin architecture: maths and physics.
So, what makes me qualified to teach these subjects? As shown by my qualifications, I hold an A grade in both maths and physics A-Level with AQA and OCR, respectively. This knowledge is put to use daily in my job as an architectural assistant, where we use calculation and scientific reasoning to create imaginative, effective and innovative architecture that pushes materials to their physical limits. I studied Spanish up to AS-Level, receiving an A grade, and lived in Spain for 9 months last year working as an English teacher. Immersing myself in the language allowed me to learn it from a new, colloquial perspective, broadening my capability.
Being the son of a teacher, I've always been close to the profession, and have learnt a lot about the process of teaching and learning through discussion with and observation of my mother. I get a sense of happiness and pride from helping people do things that they couldn't do before, so have always sought out opportunities to teach.
In Spain I worked in a primary school, teaching ages 4-12 a range of subjects in the students' non-native English. It was incredibly satisfying to see how far they progressed month to month, and when I left to return to England it was sad to say goodbye; we'd built up quite the relationship. In addition I tutored young adults individually to improve their English.
On returning home I have been involved in a term long programme for the organisation Archimake, which teaches children architectural design skills and inspires confidence in their creative ability.
My other relevant experience includes childcare and mentoring. My positive and energetic character allowed me to build up a rapport with the children that I minded in their own homes, out and about and on their family holidays abroad. I strove to be an outstanding and trusted role model, whilst allowing them to have fun. At university I was a peer mentor to architecture students in the year below me. My role was to ensure their mental wellbeing as they adapted to university life and the intense architecture degree.
Despite being a young tutor, my varied experience thus far has taught me a diverse range of skills and techniques that lend themselves to successful tutoring. I also think that my age makes me more relatable to students. In many cases I will understand and even remember the emotion behind their frustrations, allowing me to formulate a more considered and effective response. My attention to detail and thoughtful approach will provide your child with a considered tailor-made tutoring package. Meanwhile, my irrepressible passion for my chosen subjects coupled with a knowledge base formed by their intense study will facilitate productive and engaging tutoring. Finally, through my love of teaching I will try to inspire a fascination with learning in your child that will benefit them for the rest of their life. It's as simple as that.

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

With over 12 years of experience in teaching, I have worked with students of all levels, including those with special learning needs such as visual impairments, ADD, dyslexia and more.
My approach is patient, enthusiastic, and relatable, ensuring that lessons are both enjoyable and effective.
I have a strong track record of helping students achieve outstanding results, with some progressing from predicted Level 4/5 to Level 8/9 in GCSE Maths within just two months.
Many of my students have also gained admission into prestigious schools, including Latymer, City of London, HABS, and NLCG.
Despite my academic background being in music—earning a First-Class BMus (Hons) from City University London, followed by postgraduate at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (MMus Perf) and a second MMus qualification from Goldsmiths University, London - my specialism in tutoring remains in Maths.
I aim to teach in an adaptable and accessible way, inspiring students to love learning in the way that is right for them. The most important thing for me as a teacher is that my students are enjoying themselves whilst learning and working hard to overcome challenges they may face.

I am an engaging and proactive personal tutor with 12 years of experience in tutoring English, Drama, and Creative Writing.
I work with GCSE, A-Level and undergraduate students, predominantly on their English Literature studies
I adapt every session to the specific needs of the student and ensure that each lesson is successful in obtaining their personal goals.
In Literature tuition, we will focus on analytical skills and essay writing (considering structure, context, and critical analysis). We will also compile a revision portfolio, which greatly aids the student when preparing for their exams, allowing them to review their work in a clear, compartmentalized, and accessible manner.
For many years, I worked as a school tutor with students from year 2 to year 13. This has provided me with a strong and comprehensive understanding of academic demands and the school curriculum. Additionally, I have experience teaching KS1 and KS2 subjects and have extensive experience working with SEN students.
I hold a Masters Degree in Creative Writing and have led many writer's workshops for young people. I run a theatre company in London and have taught workshops and classes with drama students, varying in age from 9 to 19.
I am a positive, reliable, supportive, and fun teacher who works hard to ensure that each student is able to learn in an enjoyable and accessible manner.

Tutor House was founded by teachers with years of experience in education. Therefore, we know what makes a good tutor - that is why only 20% of tutors who apply to tutor with us are successful.
How do I book a lesson?
Once you have contacted your tutor, you can discuss everything with them, including lesson times, start dates and which specific subjects or areas you need help with. Tutors will then send you a booking request, and once you have accepted, you're good to go! All payments are made securely via the site.
Does your child need extra GCSE support?
Our dedicated tutors are on hand to provide extra support for students struggling with their GCSE studies.
Often students are given a huge workload of GCSE Homework to complete in their own time. Students will often take upwards of 8 GCSE subjects, and the combined homework for all these different subjects can pile up.
With the help of a private GCSE tutor, students can tackle the areas of study they are finding most difficult. They can do so in a comfortable, informal environment, where they can feel confident asking questions that teachers may not have time to answer in a crowded classroom. Homework tutors can also help students improve their organisation and time management skills. They can show students how to break homework up into manageable chunks and set time aside in the day to complete it without getting overwhelmed.
