11+ 13+, GCSE, A-Level English, History, and Politics. Oxford University English language and literature graduate

Advert description
I have been a private tutor for the last 5 years, specialising in tutoring 11+, 13+ GCSE and A-Level. I studied English Language and Literature as an Undergraduate at the University of Oxford. Before this I was an academic scholar at Dulwich College and a recipient of the English Literature Prize. I have helped students:

- Rise on average 2 grades English Literature and History GCSEs.

- Pass Dulwich College and Shrewsbury admissions tests, with the former achieving a Scholarship (2021 Graduate).

- Achieve 9s in GCSE and A-Level English Literature (2020 intake).

- Rise from an average B to an average A* in A-level Politics.

- Pass ISEB entrance tests.

- Pass 11+ and 13+ verbal reasoning tests.

- Prepare for successful University of Oxford for Interviews and ELATs (English Literature Admissions Tests).

My method is exam focused. I train students with regular benchmarks and tests to ensure that they are constantly improving towards exams. I have significant experience motivating struggling students to measurably improve their grades ahead of exams.

I specialise in English Literature, Politics, and History and have taught all three up to A-Level. I also teach Verbal Reasoning, Latin, and Music up to GCSE level.

My method is all about the student's work. The student and I go through previous assignments they have completed for me or their teachers. I identify where marks can be gained and we drill these areas until we see measurable improvements.

I work with students, especially those struggling with their work, to approach academic work in a more positive light and build up their confidence.

“I couldn’t have done it without him”, is what my son said last year when he opened his GCSE exam results. Billy helped my son rise through 4 grades between his mocks and actual summer exams. He made Shakespeare understandable and even enjoyable and his lighthearted approach was exactly what my son needed. I found Billy to be extremely responsive, flexible and very helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Billy to any students approaching their exams.
