About Lorcan
Having just finished an English degree at University College London, I understand just how gruelling essay-writing can be. The step-up from GCSE to IB is no easy task, suddenly there is far more being demanded of you as a student. The IB syllabus requires a particular focus upon literary criticism and historiography, which is, for the most part, largely ignored throughout the GCSEs. Having attained 7s in both History and English, I will be able to help hone your child’s essay-writing skills, ensuring they achieve the difficult balance between detail and analysis as demanded by the marking criteria. My focus as a tutor will obviously be striving towards academic excellence, but I think fostering a comfortable atmosphere is just as key, encouraging your children to love the subject, whether that be English or History as much as I do. Unlike the GCSE and A-Level, IB English places a particular emphasis upon presentation in its interactive oral and individual oral commentary. These can both prove especially difficult for some students as they require a certain degree of improvisation and confidence in public speaking. Having achieved top marks in both of these, I will work to ensure that your children are as just as prepared to excel in the demonstration-based facets of the course.

Lorcan has an excellent track record of tutoring experience. I worked under Lorcan's leadership on a university-led tutoring project and can attest to his superb ability to conduct engaging and specialised lessons. Lorcan takes into account the individual needs of each of his students and is extremely adept at tailoring his approach to bring out the very best in each pupil. It was especially rewarding to see and experience first-hand Lorcan's teaching transform unmotivated or fallen behind students into passionate high achievers. I could not recommend him enough.
