Passionately driven teacher wanting to teach English!

I'm a English teacher at a grammar school in Berkshire, bordering West London for the past three years. I teach students from Years 7-11 and the diverse range of topics I've taught range from poetry and Shakespeare to 19th century literature and prose and drama. I've been tutoring students from all ages, backgrounds and abilities. Most of them have thrived, making progress. One student, for example, managed to achieve a Grade 9 when they were originally predicted a Grade 8. Another student managed to push up two grade boundaries from a 7 to 9. Regardless of what ability, as long as I don't give up on my students, I'm certain that he/she will make excellent progress.
