About Imogen

Hi there! My name is Imo.

I love my subject and I love my job! I love seeing my pupils grow in confidence and proficiency with English.

I achieved A/A* in each of the subjects I'm tutoring at A-Level/GCSE.

I also have a 2:1 bachelor's degree from Oxford University in English Literature and Language. As a result of my degree, I have a very thorough and strong background in English as a subject, analysing texts and the field of essay writing itself.

At Oxford, I greatly benefitted from the tutorial system (1:1 teaching) and it taught me first-hand the improvements that can be made through individualised tutoring. I understand how helpful 1:1 tutiton can be and also how best to conduct it.

I have now been tutoring a year. I have accumulated a mass of resources, and lesson plans and have a good grasp of which approaches work best for my students.

I’m extremely proud of my progress so far and that of my pupils. I hope to meet you soon!

About the lesson

Hi! My name is Imo - thanks for checking out my tutoring profile.

My lessons are led by what my students and their parents believe they/their child needs the most help with. I will listen to your concerns and then we can work on those areas together!

I am super approachable, flexible about times and am always on hand to help in an email! No issue is too big or too small :)

My lessons are mainly over webcam.

I also hold a FULL ENHANCED DBS CHECK if this is something you would prefer your tutor to have - evidence of this can be provided.

FOR GCSE AND A-LEVEL:

- I am happy to base teaching around the curriculum and go through new ways of reading and understanding the texts being studied or just help with the general improvement of literacy.

- I have experience with most GCSE texts e.g. 'Of MIce and Men', 'An Inspector Calls', 'Jekyll and Hyde', 'Macbeth', 'Romeo and Juliet' and the poetic anthologies, to name a few. I have also read and taught extensively around the topics studied at the A level e.g. ' war', 'the gothic', 'dystopia' etc.

- Lessons will consist of activities such as reading and analysing passages, mind-mapping and finding new approaches to essay questions and then making and analysing essay plans to these questions. I also have past papers and mark schemes that I will go through as we progress. Through my own years as a student, I can also provide and suggest other resources that might be useful.

FOR LITERACY AND READING:

- I can tutor for all ages and can go at whatever pace suits the student.

- Lessons will consist of reading passages and going through worksheets that work on spelling, grammar, general writing skills and comprehension.

Perfect! Imogen is a fantastic tutor! She is highly knowledgeable; her teaching reflects her passion and expertise. Imo's lessons are engaging and she always makes sure that my son is comfortable with the material. Her teaching skills are outstanding. Imo's teaching is well structured- she plans the lessons before hand and emails the material before the lesson, which my son finds very useful. Above all Imo is very kind and encouraging. She is approachable and friendly. I am very thankful to Imo for tutoring my son. I would highly recommend her given how brilliant she is.

Imogen's response
Konrad is a very bright, quick-witted young man who holds a genuine gift for English. His vocabulary is extensive and his ideas and descriptions in essay questions are truly brilliant

He is a quick learner who takes on and applies advice efficiently within the lessons and is not afraid to ask when he needs help.

Konrad is in KS3 and is currently preparing for various entrance exams and has excelled thus far, mainly down to his willingness to learn and improve.

It is a pleasure teaching him and watching him grow over the last year.

Imogen's response
Teaching Charlotte is truly a pleasure. She is incredibly receptive to information and advice and really keen to answer questions and learn in lessons.

She has a clear understanding of what she wants and needs to learn and is not afraid of a challenge or to ask for help or clarification.

We are currently working on her GCSE texts, primarily 'An Inspector Calls' - her knowledge of this and attitude towards learning about it is brilliant.

She is a genuinely, lovely young woman who I look forward to teaching each week. She is full of potential, which will only grow with time.
