About Anton
I am an academically trained English tutor with a strong background in literature, academic writing, and critical analysis. I hold a BA and MA in English, an MSc from the London School of Economics, and have undertaken doctoral-level study at the University of Cambridge.
Alongside teaching, I work professionally as an author and translator, bringing real-world experience of writing, editing, and precise language use into my lessons.
I have taught English and other subjects privately for more than 25 years, as well as in Spain and in Norway, including at Oslo Cathedral School; often known as “Katta”, one of Norway’s leading public schools.
Teaching across different educational systems has given me a clear understanding of how academic expectations vary, and how to adapt methods for different ages, levels, and learning styles.
My approach is rigorous but supportive. I help students develop strong analytical skills, clear written expression, and confidence in handling complex texts.
I work in a professional, organised, and reliable manner that brings results, and aim to create a calm, respectful learning environment that builds confidence and intellectual independence for students of all ages.

My English lessons are structured, focused, and tailored to academic success. I support GCSE and A-level students with close reading, essay structure, and exam technique, and help university applicants develop the analytical writing and critical thinking required for Oxbridge and Russell Group entrance.
In my lessons, students can expect:
* Clear explanations of how strong answers and essays are constructed
* Close reading techniques that improve understanding of complex texts
* Practical strategies for planning, writing, and improving written work
* Support in developing independent thought and academic confidence
I place particular emphasis on understanding why a response works, not simply what to write. This helps students move beyond formulaic answers and develop greater depth, precision, and control in their writing.
Lesson structure and format:
* Typical lesson length: 60 minutes
* Calm, focused, and purposeful sessions
* Pace and emphasis adapted to each student’s level and goals
* Suitable for GCSE, A-level, and university applicants
I hold a BA and MA in English, an MSc from the London School of Economics, and have undertaken doctoral-level study at the University of Cambridge. I have experience guiding students towards greater confidence, clarity, and academic rigour, and aim to create a supportive but intellectually demanding learning environment in which students can make genuine progress.

Anton tutored my daughter during her GCSEs and then my son, helping them both achieve top grades in English. They both learned so much about essay writing and critical thinking, and I feel this has set them up well for not only further studies but life in general. I have recommended him to other families I know. He is a real asset.
Anton is an excellent teacher and is particularly skilled at explaining things with clarity and conciseness. Whatever the goal seems to be, whatever the timeline, he has an ability to get you there in a non-stressful way, working with you at every step. I am particularly impressed by his patience and calming energy. I find him affirming and reassuring. I can’t recommend him enough.
I would highly recommend Anton as a tutor. He is calm, patient and knows how to explain difficult things in a way that makes you understand more easily. He has a wide range of knowledge and experience, and has studied at UCL, LSE and Cambridge, so he knows how top universities work and what they are looking for!
