English Literature tutors near me

To be honest with you; I used to suck at writing. I would flop every essay handed out to me. However, I learned a trick over the years. Preparation preparation and more preparation. If you know what you want to write about, it comes naturally. I achieved a year average of 75% for English in matric.

I love reading and poetry and love the process of analysing different authors' works to decipher exactly what it is that the writer is trying to say. I received over 90% for English in high school and have always had a passion for the subject as a whole.

I am a qualified English Teacher and will take the time explain the content to you in a fun and simple way. From personal experience, I find English needs to be taken from a different approach. An approach that is FUN, VIBRANT and YOUTHFUL. When planning English lessons my lessons are creative and interesting, being a young female I know that I have the ability to create these lessons which capture the leaners attention but continually incorporate the core features of the curriculum that learners need to obtain

I have loved reading fiction from a young age. I not only got a distinction for the subject in matric, but continued on with it throughout my undergraduate degree. I graduated cum laude and I received a merit scholarship to pursue my Honours in the subject. I know how to share the knowledge of how to look at a text, what to look for, and how to be critical. I am the best tutor for this subject because I will help you access English in a way that will not only help you to understand it, but to also help you become passionate about what it can do for you.

I majored in English Literature for my bachelors degree. I am absolutely passionate about the world of characters. Immersing oneself into the world of others and getting a glimpse into the mindset of the author. Literature serves as a great critique in challenging societal norms that were common in a certain era.

English Literature is really just about stories and how you interpret them. As I studied Creative Writing on postgraduate level, I am able to assist you to see beyond the letters to the spine of the story.

I am great at helping students understand complex or foreign concepts in terms of their life and experience. I enjoy talking about stories and analysing what these stories mean with a greater context. For example considering what makes Shakespeare still relevant to people today. I have a lot of experience in summarising plots and other literary analysis features which I will be happy to teach you.

My passion and in-depth understanding of the English language, more specifically English literature lead to me lecturing English literature at the University of Kwa-Zulu Natal with a 100% pass rate.

I love reading, I am extremely well read and I have incredible comprehension knowledge. I love to be transformed and transported to different worlds. I love the way a story evolves and unfolds, I would like to share my love for books and read with others.

I studied BA Law at the University of Pretoria from 2017-2019, majoring in English Literature. I received a distinction for English in first and second semester of my final year, as well as in matric. I believe I am best suited to tutor this subject because of the comprehensive knowledge and skill that I have acquired in the English language throughout the years I have had the pleasure of learning about it. I am particularly passionate about English Literature because of its personal impact on my recent life. The question isn't so much, "how much do we know about Shakespeare" but rather, "how well does Shakespeare know us?" The ability of literature to preserve itself over centuries stems from the fact that if you remove the words and punctuation, what lies at the heart of literature is human experience. And human experience is what connects us all universally, regardless of our differences. What was human experience in the 17th/18th century, remains human experience now. I made a choice to major in English Literature when I had a variety of modules to choose from. I hope you will make the decision to choose me as your tutor despite the variety of tutors at your disposal. Tuks has equipped me with sufficient practice and an abundance of experience in this subject and I am excited to be able to utilize what I have gained to help someone else better their understanding of English Literature, as well as enrich their life as much as English Literature has enriched mine.
