Highly experienced tutor of English, Philosophy and Politics, who graduated with First Class Honours from King's College London. Tutors English online from GCSE to A-level.

James supported our son to prepare for his GCSE English exams. James personalised his teaching style and went out of his way to understand our son’s learning preferences, building his confidence and supporting him to believe he could succeed.
As a direct result of the tutoring with James our son achieved a result two grades higher than predicted in English language and literature.
We had no hesitation recommending James to both our friends and neighbours when they were looking for a tutor for their children.

Higly recommended!!
James has been tutoring my son English for 3 years. My son is not particular strong in English. When he started his Secondary school, James was recommended to us by a friend. Every lesson is fun and engaging. When I walked pass the room, I can hear the laughter, which it is a great sign that he is enjoying the lesson. My son really likes James' lesson. And the school feedback speaks loudly how effective the tutoring is. On parent evening, English teacher said that she really enjoyed reading my son's analysis on Shakespeare ( he later told me it is all because of James). His English assessment with school has significantly improved ( from under 50% to 80%) and most importantly his attitude towards English has changed. Now he is confident with the subject and enjoying the lessons.

Since then, I have recommended James to 5 friends through word of mouth. All feedbacks are very positive. James is a fun and engaging tutor, and I am so pleased to see the improvement in my son both in term of the school result and the confidence with English.

James is a highly qualified English tutor. My daughter took lessons from him. One of the strengths of James' teaching method is that he customizes it to meet each student's individual learning preferences and ensures that every student receives individual attention, addressing specific grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary needs. In addition to teaching the basics of the language, James encourages his students to develop confidence in English. It would be my pleasure to recommend James to anyone seeking a dedicated and effective English tutor.

James is a brilliant tutor. His style of teaching is uniquely engaging and inspired. He immediately makes one feel comfortable and capable, regardless of the subject area or difficulty. Thanks to his lessons, I’ve developed a true love of academia and a firm understanding of philosophical reasoning I never thought possible before.

I am doing my GCSEs this year and have been with James for approximately 6 months, however I wish I had started earlier as James is an amazing, very professional and patient teacher. He easily grasps on to my skill level to cater his teaching just for me and he identifies and improves my weak points very well. In the end, I can feel my English language and literature skills improving drastically after his lesson, so I highly recommend James as your English tutor.

I have know James for 13 years. We attended college and university together. He is an exceptionally talented and hardworking teacher, with a strong, ethical passion for learning - which rubs off on not just his students, but everyone who knows him. James has a unique talent for inspiring both confidence and a love of learning in his pupils, whatever their background or ability. His record for improving students’ grades is outstanding.
I would recommend James to anyone.

As one of James’s student who studying with him a couple of years now. I found it helped me a lot to developing and confident with my English as a second language. I will strongly recommend James as your tutor for leaning your English because he is friendly, trustful, and have a lot of useful skills to you to learn from him.

James is a fantastic tutor who delivers engaging and structured lessons. His passion for the subjects he teaches really makes him an excellent tutor. His teaching style is firm whilst being very encouraging. As a colleague, I can attest of James' teaching abilities and trustworthiness. I highly recommend him.
