English Literature & Creative Writing Tutor

I am an academic and writer based in Edinburgh, Scotland. My debut novel, "Interiors", was released in October 2022 by The 87 Press. My PhD thesis, titled "Dream, Fantasy and Illness: Exploring the Carnal Imaginary" considered the sense of touch and the body in modern and contemporary women's writing. I am passionate about teaching and strive to make my lessons fun and engaging, providing a safe space to explore all things literary. I have experience teachings ages 13 to adult, and provide a completely tailored experience for each student. I love to delve deep into literary techniques, helping my students to advance in their reading and writing practice.
