English tutors near me

I achieved a distinction for English when I matriculated (including 100% for a literature essay during my preliminary examinations), won the Wordsmith Prize for writing giving me an affinity and insight into the process, and enjoy literature and research it in my free time. I particularly enjoy short stories and Shakespeare

I grew up speaking English, and it is my mother tongue. I want every child to be confident in the languages they learn and so I try to create a learning experience for them catered to exactly what they need. I have experience in tutoring English to children between the grades of 3-7, and I believe I am the best fit to help your child.

This is my home language and was one of the subjects that I enjoyed the most in high school. I can help you a lot when it comes to poetry and literary essays, as well as when it comes to understanding specific questions in high school english papers, as these can become fairly complex.

I have a thorough understanding of the way that English is tested at a high school level and thus understand what is expected of the learner. I achieved a distinction in English Home Language at an IEB level in high school and have a good baseline knowledge in English literature works such as Othello, Antony and Cleopatra, The Crucible, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Great Gatsby and Americanah. My current university course is a writing intensive course and therefore I have an advanced essay writing capability and could offer good pointers on how to write a good essay and lay the groundwork for solid essay writing in the future.

Thorough knowledge of the English language can open many doors for you. Being a universal language, competence is crucial! Improve the way you speak, listen and communicate, and doors of opportunity will fly open all around you!

I have a very deep understanding of first-language British English and a passion for it. I am a first-language British English speaker, have read widely and have a high level of knowledge about English literature. I also have many years of experience tutoring English.

Having spent the last 3. 5 years studying towards being a foundation phase teacher, we have gone into great detail about how to teach to young children in a way that they understand. We have been taught to identify a child personality and learning style and given practical ways to teach each child. I also have experience in tutoring and teaching.

I believe I will be the best because I have a lot of experience and have learnt a lot from it. I have always been good at English and never struggled with it. I love the language. I am an avid reader and have been this way from a young age. I have taught learners at a private school and at school where English was their 2nd language. When I taught learners these learners their English progressed dramatically. Some learners could not write a full sentence in the beginning and by the end of the year they were writing full stories. I have taught English to grade R to grade 3. I have also tutored a grade 8 learner for English. I am kind, caring and put the learner first and teach in way that suits them and that they they will understand. I am passionate about teaching and believe that learners have endless potential. I am patient. I have endless time for learners and I am always willing to put in the extra effort.

I have an excellent command of the English language and am able to impart valuable tips and tricks on how to achieve great results in standardised testing. I can especially help with essay writing and literature, which are two of the most sorely misunderstood parts of the subject.

I believe I am a great English Tutor because of my diverse experiences in teaching English as a subject and my passion for the language. Aside from that, I am very comfortable with the language and can teach just about any topic in the subject. Topics I enjoy teaching: 1. Language e.g. punctuation, spelling, grammar 2. Literature 3. Speaking skills 4. Poetry 5. Writing 6. Novels and Short stories I believe what sets me aside from others is my energetic personality, paired with my creative teaching strategies. Learning can happen in the most unexpected ways. I aim to make each and every lesson applicable and memorable.
