About me

I have just graduated from the University of Oxford. My passion resides in literature's ability to comment on the society in which it is situated. The variety of forms and medium through which literature operates are really intriguing. I have a particular love for drama and plays, having involved myself in various productions outside of study, so I really do live and breathe literature!

I have just graduated from the University of Oxford. My passion resides in literature's ability to comment on the society in which it is situated. The variety of forms and medium through which literature operates are really intriguing. I have a particular love for drama and plays, having involved myself in various productions outside of study, so I really do live and breathe literature! I can help you develop your answers outside a class environment that will really help you engage with the texts in the best possible way. I'm also a friendly face, and so I will hopefully help you to really enjoy the literature you're exploring, which itself will aid your writing and get you on track to secure the grades you need. I also have a knowledge of literary theory, and can provide some information on that, in order to really enhance your answers and make them stand out!

About my sessions

The A-level system is incredibly formulaic and requires a knowledge of how to play the game. In my sessions, I will set out what they are looking for and I will teach a framework that you will be able to apply to most texts, helping to get you the best possible grades.

In some sessions, we will also explore some literary theory to really boost the level of your answers - a sk...

As a parent, you want the very best for your child’s education. I was so pleased and extremely lucky to find Jack. My son had lessons in English Language and English Literature with Jack. His results were superb in his GCSEs and reflected the enthusiasm, knowledge and dedication Jack put into every lesson. English Language GCSE will continue to be a priority when you apply for a job and I recommend Jack so much! If you are willing to do the work you won’t get a better Tutor and a lovely chap too!

Jack has been a fantastic tutor and has helped my son a lot during my IGCSE English course. He supported him and pushed him as much as possible. He ended up with a grade 9 in English Language and grade 8 in English Literature! He is a very good tutor and I would definitely recommend him!

Jack has been great. Jack has been working with my daughter in preparation for her Mock GCSE in English. Jack has given her knowledge, hints, tips and insightful feedback that has not only improved her confidence for her English mock but also she has been able to take techniques and apply to other subjects. Would thoroughly recommend
