About Rachael
I am a First Class Honors English Literature graduate from the University of Exeter. My final dissertation was a creative writing portfolio of poetry, which is my specialism. As a reader, I am also interested in Romanticism, Medieval Literature and the development of the novel. Since graduating, I have worked in Radio Drama production for the BBC, tutored extensively, and am currently writing my own creative work. I am an easygoing person with a love of language - be it Middle English, French, or German, which I studied as a minor during my time at university.

I aim for an exciting and exploratory tutorial that balances exam technique (if applicable) and close language analysis with a more creative discussion of literary concepts, historical context, and interpretation of themes. I prioritize getting a feel for the personal objective of the student/parent in order to tailor content to learning requirements. With over 600 hours of tutoring experience, I have a comprehensive collection of resources to hand. My teaching style is enthusiastic and friendly; I encourage my students to express curiosity and ask any questions they may have.

I had the incredible privilege of being tutored by Rachael for my A-Level English Literature, and I can confidently say that her guidance played an instrumental role in helping me achieve an A* in English LIt. Rachael's expertise, passion, and personalised approach to teaching made my learning experience truly exceptional. I found it useful when she made detailed PowerPoints in which she included my essays and her comments. She would use her specific keys (green colour for spelling mistakes for instance) which would make it easier for me to detect what I need to fix/improve. Furthermore, at the end of her PowerPoints, she would have tips on how to do well in a checklist form making it easier for me to keep track of my progress. This personalised approach meant that every session was targeted and productive, maximising the value of our time together. Her insightful feedback on my essays and assignments helped me refine my analytical skills and craft well-structured arguments.
She encouraged me to think critically, explore different interpretations, and develop a deeper appreciation for the texts we studied. She always remained calm, listened to my thousand concerns about my writing carefully and would give me words of encouragement as well as detailed explanations of where I was going wrong. I appreciated how she remembered my past writing and how, in our later lessons, she would tell me how my writing was significantly improving. With Rachael's guidance, I achieved an A* in A-Level English Literature hence I wholeheartedly recommend her as an English tutor for anyone seeking to excel in their studies.View more recommendations
