About Aisling

GCSE & IGCSE English | IB Specialist | 11+/13+ Entrance Exam Prep | Personal Statements

I am a Senior English teacher with 12 years of teaching and tutoring experience across GCSE, IGCSE, IB and school entrance exam preparation (CE, 11+, 13+).

My students consistently achieve top grades: 7–9 at GCSE and 6–7 at IB and I have successfully prepared candidates for entry to elite UK independent schools, including Eton, Harrow and Sevenoaks, as well as guided students through Oxbridge and Ivy League admissions, helping with personal statements.

I am a Senior IB Examiner and Workshop Leader, which means I know how examiners assess work, and I train students to think with the same precision. I previously served as Head of English at one of Hong Kong’s most selective schools, ranked #1 globally for IB results, and have extensive experience teaching high-achieving international students.

Originally a lawyer, I transitioned to education to specialise in helping ambitious students excel at the highest level. My approach is rigorous, results-focused and tailored for families seeking outstanding outcomes in competitive academic environments. I am supportive and sessions are tailored to individual students with whom I develop trusting relationships.

About the lesson

My lessons are always results oriented and in our first lesson, I undertake an initial assessment of the student so that I can plan effectively for lessons thereafter. I assess students' strengths and areas for growth and improvement as well as get to know their interests and concerns and desired outcomes.

My teaching style encourages students to value their own opinions and to have confidence. I believe that engaging with texts and ideas is the key to doing well. I have a good sense of humour and am patient, but I am also detail oriented and have high expectations that comfortably push students to improve. My students become confident and well-trained in assuring accuracy in their work. I maintain a skills focused approach beyond content that they can transfer and apply to all texts, which is especially important for most curricula. I value literacy (spelling and grammar) and give weekly homework.
