About Jessica
Hi there!
My name is Jess!
I'm a passionate and understanding English tutor, with over five years of experience helping students of all ages and abilities reach their potential, including children with special educational needs (autism, ADHD, developmental delays, behavioural issues, etc.).
I am currently pursuing doctoral study in English Literature, and prior to that, I studied English at the University of Edinburgh, where I achieved a 2:1 at undergrad and a Distinction for my Masters.
During my time as a tutor, I have taught a broad range of individuals, each with a unique set of skills and needs, and as such, I ensure to tailor lessons accordingly. We will set targets so that you can better conceptualise what you need to do in order to improve, and if you are a parent, rest assured that I will give regular updates on your child's progress.
I am always so proud of my students and the progress they make, as they often see their grades improve by at least one grade boundary or more, and it has been additionally lovely watching their confidence grow and flourish!

I completely understand that studying English is a real challenge for some - potentially even quite boring! However, feeling put off by a subject that we find difficult is natural, and I wholeheartedly believe that it is my job to help students gain an appreciation of the subject so that they can understand why we study English Literature—perhaps even having some fun along the way!
In our first lesson, we will have a chat about which areas you feel need improvement, and we can get started on some easier tasks to ease in. If you have anything in particular you definitely want to focus on (homework, coursework, etc.), please feel free to bring it to the session. We will also set some targets, which we will adjust over time as necessary—this is so you can conceptualise what you need to do, and hopefully feel really good when you do reach your goals!
Subsequent lessons will revolve around finding strategies to hit those targets, and I also believe in the importance of mock exams, so that by the time the real thing comes along, you'll be an expert!

Jessica is a highly skilled tutor that helped me maintain A*s (or a 9) through my GCSEs and A-Levels. I began lessons with her during my GCSES and found her teaching style so accessible and enjoyable that I continued to be tutored by her into my English Undergraduate degree. She is extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about English Literature, which in turn developed my own love for the subject. In her lessons she helped to refine my essay writing to be clear and precise, enabling me to get the highest grades possible. Jessica goes above and beyond in her teaching, giving me extra contextual knowledge about my essay topic that I would not have known to research without her guidance. Ultimately, these facts helped me understand the topics that I was writing on more, which added nuance and extra knowledge to my essays that boosted my grades. She also gave me confidence to begin my Undergraduate English degree by teaching me the differences between A-Level and University essays clearly, helping me to understand how to get the highest grades possible. Jessica has a wealth of experience in English Literature, and I would not be able to find a better tutor than her, I highly recommend her for GCSE, A-Level and Undergraduate lessons.
Jessica was retained to help my son get to grips with the more challenging aspects of literature and essay writing in readiness for exam season. She was professional and tutored in a way that was easy to understand. Needless to say with this extra help my son enjoyed great success. Thank you Jessica.
I've had the pleasure of knowing Jessica since University, where we shared many classes together--and, later, a flat! In that time I've never known her to be anything less than exceptionally studious. Being both academically meticulous and enviably astute in her essay-writing and scholarly research, she would routinely show up the rest of the class!
On top of that, I happen to know that she is also an unfailingly kindhearted and generous human being. Any child would be lucky to have a tutor blessed with such boundless optimism, gentleness and patience. Their academic future is in capable hands!View more recommendations
