About Laura
Hi, I’m Laura! I’m a UK-trained English teacher and professional scriptwriter with over 10 years of experience in the classroom and the creative industry.
My journey with language started in Canada and led me across the globe—teaching in Turkey, Thailand, and eventually spending a decade in UK secondary schools (Years 7–13). Those years in the classroom taught me that whether you are analysing Shakespeare for a Grade 9 GCSE essay or writing a hook for a YouTube script, the focus is the same: The Architecture of Engagement.
I offer a unique blend of academic rigour and modern creativity:
For Students: I know the UK mark schemes inside out. I won’t just help you "get through" English; I help you understand the structure of language so you can walk into your GCSE or A-Level exams with genuine confidence.
For Creators: As a professional YouTube scriptwriter, I help you move beyond "AI-sounding" slop to craft human, purposeful content that actually connects with an audience. I have worked with 9 clients in the last year, editing, scripting, writing and even delivering scripting workshops to prove that what you say really matters.
My Approach:
I believe writing should be human. I meet my students where they are. Whether you’re struggling to express a complex idea or you're a high-achiever looking to polish your voice. My lessons are supportive, highly personal, and designed to build the one thing every writer needs: confidence.
Now back in Canada, I bring a global perspective and a decade of UK expertise to every online session I teach.

As a veteran UK teacher turned YouTube script expert, I’ve seen firsthand that the skills needed to ace a Literature exam and the tactics used to hook a digital audience are the same. I offer high-impact, personalised online sessions designed for GCSE/A-Level students and aspiring content creators to help you master the architecture of language and engage any audience.
For Students: Achieving Academic Excellence
I provide targeted support for the AQA and Edexcel exam boards. Having spent 10 years in UK classrooms, I know exactly how to decode mark schemes. We will work together to:
- Structure high-scoring essays for GCSE and A-Level Literature and Language.
- Turn complex analysis into clear, persuasive arguments.
- Build the exam-day confidence needed to hit those top mark bands.
For Creators: Professional Script Guru & Strategy
The same principles that win over an examiner are what keep a digital audience watching. I provide specialised coaching for YouTube scriptwriting, helping you:
- Move beyond generic, AI-style fluff to craft human, purposeful content.
- Design "hooks" and narratives that build a loyal, engaged community.
- Edit and refine your scripts to ensure your unique voice is never lost in the edit.
My Teaching Style:
As a UK-qualified teacher (QTS) with a degree in English Literature, I don’t believe in "one size fits all" tutoring. Every lesson is built around purposeful feedback and real-world application. We don’t just "do English", we study how words shape understanding.
With a decade of experience in UK secondary schools (Years 7–13) and a parallel career as a professional scriptwriter, I offer a unique dual perspective. I know exactly what an examiner is looking for, and I know exactly what keeps a viewer watching.
