About

Hello! My name is Tom. I have taught Secondary English for five years and am currently employed at a high-performing grammar school in Kent.

Prior to becoming a Teacher of Secondary English, I lectured in the School of English at the University of Kent for nearly a decade.

I hold advanced degrees in English literature (BA, MA, PhD) and this expert subject knowledge forms the cornerstone of my teaching practice.

Whether your aim is to achieve a Grade 4/5 in English Language or Literature at GCSE or excel at A Level, I can help. Please contact me for my current availability; I am available to tutor weekday evenings either in-person or online.
