About Lily
My name is Lily, and I am currently studying sports journalism. I have always been passionate about teaching and showing how the English language can empower people through writing. Writing is a powerful tool for expressing emotions, processing pent-up feelings, and finding one’s voice. I hope to help others discover not only the value of English, but also a genuine love for writing as a form of self-expression.

English Language & Literature Tutoring 11+ | GCSE | A-Level
Hi, I’m Lily, a sports journalism student with a strong passion for the English language and the power of writing. I believe English is more than a subject — it’s a tool for expression, confidence, and understanding the world around us. My tutoring is designed to help students achieve excellent grades while also developing a genuine love for reading and writing.
What I Offer
I provide structured, engaging English tuition for students preparing for the 11+, GCSE, and A-Level English Language and Literature. Lessons that are tailored to each student’s ability and goals, with a focus on both academic success and creative confidence.
Lesson Focus Areas
Literacy & Language Understanding Students build a strong foundation in literacy by developing vocabulary, comprehension, and an understanding of how language creates meaning. This supports success across English Literature, English Language, and entrance exams.

My Teaching Approach
