We can think of countless reasons to pursue studies in English literature or English language with a private tutor. Whatever your motivation, London is the place to do it!
âEnglish studiesâ encompasses a whole myriad of disciplines - from reading and writing to the spoken word - and keeping on top of all aspects of your English education can be tricky alone. Itâs no surprise that youâre looking for a private tutor to help you to juggle all aspects of your studies and brush up on weaknesses.
Unlike more scientific subjects, there is no one answer to an English essay question. At GCSE, A level and university level, your response to an essay should demonstrate both your ability to think critically and to structure your thoughts and ideas coherently. There is no right or wrong answer, which is what makes English studies so nuanced! You may want a private tutor to give you more detailed feedback on your essays that you might get in class, identifying your strengths and weaknesses and helping you to progress.
Maybe you struggle with reading comprehension, with analysing texts and identifying themes. You might be looking for someone to help you to ask the right questions so that you can develop your critical thinking skills â a private tutor might be the answer.
Or maybe the exam season is coming and youâre starting to feel the need for some dedicated revision with a knowledgeable teacher or tutor!
There are many reasons why you might be seeking additional support in English studies, but where better to learn than Englandâs capital â a city that has been a major contributor to English literature on a global scale?
When it comes to finding support for your English studies in London, there are many different routes you could take.
Book groups are an excellent starting point for developing your critical thinking skills and becoming more comfortable with discussing literature with your peers. Over the course of a month you read a book with your book club and discuss it with them at a monthly meeting. These meetings are often free to attend and provide a great opportunity for meeting like-minded literature fans. For North Londonians, the North London Book Club might be the ideal group!
If youâre looking to develop your mastery of the spoken word or your understanding of the language of Shakespeare, enrolling in a drama club could help bring the words on the page to life. Nothing quite illuminates the meaning behind Shakespearian English like experiencing it on stage, and by performing old English prose you may find that your understanding of the sonnets improves too. Drama groups often help you to improve your vocabulary and oral expression too, making them ideal for those wishing to improve their spoken English.
If itâs structuring ideas and arguments that you want work on, joining a debate club might help you to improve your speaking and listening skills, helping you get used to thinking critically about othersâ arguments before forming your own response.
Whatever your focus in your pursuit of English studies, and whatever your level, consider joining a group in London to develop your skills and confidence!
Whilst groups are excellent for developing your skills and meeting like-minded learners, private lessons provide you with tailored, structured tuition where you have the space to learn at your own pace.
Unlike in a group or classroom context, a private tutor can identify your strengths and help you to address your weaknesses. If you struggle with poetry, your tutor might focus on poetry to help you to develop your understanding. If grammar is your achilles heel, in a private session you have the time to ask as many grammar questions as you like and even work through grammar drills with your tutor. If you lack confidence in your essay writing abilities, your private tutor could talk you through essay writing technique, read your essays and provide you with detailed feedback and points for improvements.
You can choose to see your tutor once a month, once a fortnight, or even twice a week if you want to! With private tuition, your education is personalised.
In brief, private tuition is one of the most efficient ways for you to improve in English.
If youâve decided to find a private tutor, youâll be confronted with myriad avenues to search for the right person.
If youâre in school or university, additional support may be available to you through your institution in the form of study groups or extra time with a tutor.
Some teachers offer additional tuition after school, so do some investigating in your school to see if any additional tuition is available.
You can also look for private tutors in the newspapers, on the internet, through English studies schools, in community centres or on local shop noticeboards. There are so many options that it can be hard to choose which tutor is right for you!
This is where Superprof comes in. Superprof makes it simple for you to compare tutors based across London, and to tailor your search to your specific requirements â be it price, location, experience, subject areas or tuition style. You can even read reviews from other learners to give you an idea of the tutorsâ skill and experience.
