I read English at the University of Cambridge and stayed for an MPhil in Eighteenth-Century and Romantic Studies. While working on my first novel, I teach English literature and creative writing to A-Level, IB, and university students across London.
Literature is not about memorising what critics have said — it is about learning to read deeply and think originally. My tutoring sessions are close-reading workshops where we sit with a text, notice what is happening at the level of language, and build interpretations that are genuinely your own. This approach consistently produces essays that examiners describe as fresh and sophisticated.
I am particularly strong on the Romantics, the Victorians, and twentieth-century fiction, but I have taught everything from Chaucer to Zadie Smith. For creative writing, I offer structured feedback on short stories, poetry, and novel extracts, helping you develop your voice and craft.
My teaching style is warm, bookish, and intellectually rigorous. If you love reading and want to get better at writing about it, we will get along famously.
