English tutor with over 5 years of experience - KS3, GCSE & A. Level

I have been tutoring English for more than 5 years. I am a professional English tutor. I initially worked as a teaching assistant in a college and then became an online tutor, using multiple platforms. I have a bachelor's degree in American Studies and English (history, literature and politics) and a master's degree in Global Politics. Based on feedback from many students, I am better at teaching English than many qualified teachers. I tend to begin by going through relevant exam papers and explaining the different writing structures such questions require. I then tend to focus on how to use and explain quotations ("zooming in"). I do this because, after tutoring more than 850 lessons, I've found students are often particularly lacking clarity on these areas. In terms of my teaching style, I'm typically relaxed and patient, not authoritative. However that does depend on the student's approach. My rate is £24.5ph for off-peak times (mornings and afternoons) and £28.5ph for peak times (evenings and weekends).
