About Ruby

I am an MA English Student at King's College London who has recently graduated with a high 2.1 in English Literature at the same institution. I am hugely passionate about both literature and teaching. I believe it is as important to listen to your student as it is to give them new knowledge. I aim to improve a student's confidence in their own abilities and hopefully inspire an enjoyment of reading and thinking about the media which we consume.

I aim to be a friendly face who can be an aid to anyone's needs, whether they simply want to pass the subject or want to be challenged in the subject. I can deliver both.

About the lesson

I am a friendly and conscientious tutor who approaches learning as a two-way street. I focus on building practical exam and essay skills which allow the student to become independent and empowered.

I offer 1-hour sessions for both GCSE and A Level students (although I can be flexible with this), primarily online which allows for us to share documents easily and quickly. I set timed essays as homework and I mark them for the next session so we are continuously building upon the students' work and I can provide detailed and personal feedback, which in my experience is the key to improvements in grades.

I have tutored since January 2024 and have had many students improve their grades by 1 or 2 grades but more importantly leave our sessions feeling more confident in their own skills and opinions. I always want students to have their opinions heard and their ideas valued. This creativity is key to the English Literature and Language courses at both GCSE and A Level.

Ruby has been a consistent and positive presence for my daughter through her English lit and Lang GCSE’s. She helped build her confidence in her abilities to write and to tackle her exams, and having an hour of one to one attention and support every week was so important. In the end my daughter achieved higher grades than predicted. I have no doubt Ruby had a large part to play in this.
