About Gemma
I trained for 6 years in performing arts, specialising in Acting, Voice and Singing.
My credits include both West End and TV: Call the Midwife, Holby City, Made in Dagenham, One Man Two Guvnors, Dreamboats and Petticoats and many more.
I specialise in English and Drama: Shakespeare, classic texts and modern drama, as well as Victorian literature and poetry analysis techniques both seen and unseen texts.
For KS2 and KS3, I principally focus on building confidence with spelling, comprehension and writing skills both in terms of creative writing and non-fiction assessment evaluations.
For GCSE, we focus primarily on essay structure, exam practice and fulfilling the 5 Assessment Objectives needed for the exams.
I am familiar with all the main exam boards and have experience in AQA and Edexcel in particular.
I try to tailor each lesson to what the student needs help with the most, in order for them to get the most out of their time with me.
My goal is to make the lessons as enjoyable as they are informative, and encourage the students to become invested in the books they study, and more confident and secure in their analysis of texts.
English and Drama is about finding your voice, confidence and a passion no matter what your age, and my goal is to encourage all my students to care about these texts as much as I do.

Gemma is a fantastically warm, fun and knowledgeable English tutor. Not only did Gemma help my daughter achieve a grade 8 at GCSE (predicted grade 7) she also gave her tools to use which ensured she was calm and confident in actually taking the exam, allowing her to avoid silly mistakes like interpreting the question incorrectly or missing questions altogether, which had happened in the past. I can't recommend highly enough.

I used Gemma for my nephew, we had great results and he really enjoyed the lessons.
Highly recommend.View more recommendations
