About Maeve
As an English tutor with over 3 years of experience and a Bachelor of Science in English Language and Professional Writing, I love helping children discover the joy of reading. My passion for children’s literature drives every lesson I create. I specialise in working with emergent readers and early elementary students, supporting their literacy growth step by step. Phonological awareness, comprehension, and vocabulary are central to my teaching. I use picture books, storytelling, and creative play to make lessons interactive and engaging. Reading should never feel dull—it should feel like stepping into a new world. I tailor my approach to fit each child’s learning style, ensuring lessons feel supportive and fun. I believe in building confidence from the very first sounds and words. Each success, big or small, is celebrated. My sessions aim to inspire not just strong readers, but joyful learners. Early literacy is the foundation of academic and personal growth. Together, we’ll unlock the magic of reading and imagination in English.

I teach academic writing with a focus on clarity, structure, and practical skills. My approach begins with building strong thesis statements and well-organised outlines. From there, we develop essays and research papers that are coherent and well-supported. Citation skills are emphasised, with guidance in both APA and MLA formats. Academic integrity is always central, and students learn how to cite responsibly. I work especially well with heritage learners and academic/linguist students. My lessons are also designed for exam preparation, where quick and clear writing is essential. I provide step-by-step methods to make complex tasks manageable. Feedback is personalised, helping students refine their voice and style. I encourage critical thinking and careful analysis in every session. My teaching balances rigour with support, ensuring steady progress. By the end of our lessons, students will feel more confident in their academic writing. We’ll refine your academic voice together for lasting success.
