About David
I am an English teacher with over 15 years of experience including GCSE and University preparation. I also teach general English proficiency for students whose first language is not English. I currently work at Abbey College Cambridge, as Head of English. Most recently I have been teaching IELTS and the GCSE language and literature courses (AQA, CAIE, OCR). I have successfully taught students of varying ages, each with their own specific goals.

I specialise in GCSE exam preparation, focusing on techniques that help students achieve the highest possible marks for each question. This typically involves analysing model answers and mark schemes, with a strong emphasis on paragraph structure and in-depth language analysis. I am familiar with AQA, CAIE IGCSE, OCR, and Eduqas exam boards. In addition, I am a qualified Cambridge ESOL examiner and experienced IELTS teacher, with extensive knowledge of the UKVI Academic exam.

Excellent! After only 4 lessons of intensive and targetted support from David, my daughter has felt a marked improvement in her creative writing ability in preparation for her GCSEs in a few weeks.
Not only has she enjoyed the English lessons – which in itself is so important – but it has also boosted her confidence which will no doubt have a knock on effect on her exam performance.Perfect! David was an empathetic teacher, who tailored the lesson to my grandson’s interests.
He was able to hone into areas that needed attention.Perfect! David is an excellent tutor. He took our daughter from grade 5 GCSE English language to Grade 9 in the space of half a term. David has excellent interpersonal skills making our daughter feel at ease and even happy to have a lesson at 9am on a Saturday morning! We cannot recommend David highly enough as a tutor. Thank you David for the immense effort and personal commitment.
Perfect! David is an excellent English teacher. Calm, friendly and approachable with high standards and a keen awareness of exam requirements, he is the perfect tutor to help my son progress at pace.
- Oli is a kind, intellectual student. He seems to be borderline 6/7 and I believe that he will be able to attain what he is aiming towards.David's response :

Great tutor. My daughter feels much more confident with English. Her grade has gone from 3 to 5 in school tests.
David is well researched and current with progressions in pedagogy. He is very empathic and adapts to the need of the individual. He is well organised and keeps the individual at the centre of his attention.
David is very experienced, patient and encouraging. My child has greatly improved in all aspects of English learning over the last two years.
David is a wonderful English tutor and supported my daughter through the 2 years of her GCSE preparation. He helped her achieve top grades at GCSEs and gave her guidance and online resources to help her do this.
He looked through her work with her, from past paper questions to paragraphs written in class and gave her strong feedback on how she did well but also on how to improve. I cannot thank David enough for guiding my daughter through topics in her English GCSEs and helping her achieve the grades she wanted.David was extremely friendly, accomodating and professional and most importantly helped my son achieve the grades he required.
Thank you for considering David as a potential tutor for your child. It its with great pleasure that I take the opportunity to recommend him as an outstanding teacher. As a former colleague who I have known for over two years, I can attest to the high quality of David's ability to instruct and the deep knowledge he possesses of his field. He is enthusiastic, clear and very engaging to students. His pupils, many of whom I have shared in the past, openly expressed to me they enjoy his lessons and they confidently progresses to meeting their own personal objective under his guidance. David also has a welcoming and warm presence, which is well suited to provide encouragement and support to all age groups and abilities. Based on my professional relationship with David, I am very happy to provide a recommendation for his services.
