About Steve
I am a happily married, proud father of two children. I have a PGCE, Masters and a Bachelor's Degree in English and have taught English and Film in sixth forms since 1999. I have experience of teaching English from basic skills to A Level and happily support undergraduates and help with post-graduate research. Indeed, I have taught pupils as young as seven to those in their seventies. I specialise in GCSE and A Level English Language & Literature teaching and have examined for AQA and EDUQAS boards since 2001, including seven years of leading exam teams and teaching them how to examine. It is, therefore, fair to say that I have an excellent grasp of what examiners are looking for and can ensure exam success. I also have management experience (since 2003) and have led A Level teachers/courses in English Language, English Literature and English Language & Literature. As well as teaching, I have managed several A Level and BTEC departments of a local college where I was also a senior leader. Finally, my coaching experience, helping other teachers to improve their practice, started when I qualified as a mentor at Manchester Metropolitan University in 2015.

I love my job so whatever level I teach, I always get a buzz from seeing a student progress, be it with their spelling, grammar or Shakespeare. I am patient, enthusiastic, passionate and very knowledgeable about my subjects and I feel I excel at one-to-one tuition. I believe in a student-led approach as every student is different and I build sessions around what you require in a collaborative fashion. I am happy to help with coursework, dissertations or deliver more exam-focused sessions. No matter what your aspirations are in English or Film, I will give you the confidence to achieve them at your own pace.
I tutor from my home, online and lessons are an hour.

Steve tutored our daughter for her GCSE English. She found him to be exceptionally engaging and he helped her find her confidence and give her the boost she needed. We highly recommend Steve to other parents.
Steve is incredibly kind and patient, which made my daughter feel comfortable from day one. He is always reliable and punctual, and very flexible when we need to adjust timings.
I can highly recommend Steve as an English language tutor. His engagement with my son was wonderful, and he adores him. This really supported his commitment to learning, and he genuinely looked forward to his lesson every week. My son’s technique and application have improved immensely, and he now feels really confident in achieving an A in August. Steve has always communicated with me as a parent throughout the time we have been with him, which has also helped to reassure me! Thanks so much, Steve. We will miss you.
Steve has been tutoring my son over the past year to help prepare him for his GCSE English exams. English is not my son’s favourite subject, but he found his lessons with Steve extremely helpful and engaging. Steve is highly knowledgeable and has an excellent understanding of the syllabus and exam requirements and working with him has really boosted my son’s confidence. We have been very pleased with the support Steve has provided and would highly recommend him to other students preparing for their GCSE English exams.
Steve is a great teacher. He tutored my son for his GCSE English resulting in a great mark.
My son really enjoyed his lessons as Steve is well prepared and so enthusiastic, taking time to find which areas needed working on. My son’s confidence in his English certainly grew and was reflected in his result. I have no hesitation in recommending him!View more recommendations
