I am a highly experienced teacher, having taught English Language and English Literature for over 30 years. My results are consistently excellent.
I have been an examiner of English and Literature for over ten years, specifically for AQA and Edexcel,

For 21 years I was Head of English at a private school, and I have a wealth of experience and knowledge, as well as a love for my subject. I will offer stimulating and rewarding lessons, with successful outcomes.
Gaining confidence in any subject really is the key to success, and I believe that by creating a rapport with a calm, kind and professional teacher, your child can really blossom and enjoy the learning experience. Exam success will then come – your child can be the best they can. No one fears exams if they have belief and confidence in their abilities.

Some recent feedback:

"Liz’s first lesson impressed me with her organisation and professionalism. She created a virtual classroom, uploaded reading materials and set up tasks for my daughter, everything structured in a professional manner. After the lesson, I was amazed with her detailed feedback via the email explaining the lesson content, my daughter’s performance, her evaluation and suggestion for improvement. I felt so relieved that I’ve found the right teacher."

Tutoring Experience

I offer online tuition for AQA and Edexcel GCSE. I have been an examiner for over ten years, as well as a moderator for the Spoken Language Endorsement for GCSE.
