“English & Drama tutor in Oxford. Final-year English Literature student at the University of Oxford.

I help GCSE and A-level English and Drama students unlock top grades by making the subject feel both manageable and exciting. My approach combines academic precision with creative insight: I’ll teach you how to break down exam questions, structure essays with clarity, and sharpen your analysis so every paragraph has impact. At the same time, I bring texts off the page. With Shakespeare and modern drama especially, I use my experience as a theatre director to show how plays work in performance—which not only deepens understanding but also makes essays stand out. Lessons are tailored to you: whether it’s building essay-writing confidence, mastering close reading, or preparing for practical drama exams, I’ll give you the strategies and feedback that move your work from good to excellent. My students can expect structure, support, and clear progress—but also energy, humour, and a genuine love for the subject.
