I have been tutoring mostly to teenagers and aim to get them to actively engage in the more exciting sides of the subjects. I will be working with you to encourage your own interpretations of works and justifications, this is to help encourage further development rather than simply spoon-feeding answers. Essay and exam technique is also a very important factor and I will be helping you learn how to structure answers. I aim to set out work as simply as possible, to this end I will be using example essays, timelines and I will provide you with key passages for us to interpret together along with a marks scheme.
I first started tutoring to my little sister with her homework but I have since taken a few A-Level students in the build up to their exams. None of them have received less than a B as a final grade, and I have taken both students who wished to learn exam specific studies and those who wished to increase their general knowledge on the subject before taking it up at University.
If the travel is close then I won't want a travelling fee, this is for long journeys only.

Perry is a considerate young man, willing to adapt the pace of tutoring to the skill level of the individual, it's been a pleasure to be tutored by him in the past and id highly recommend him to anyone ready to take on a new challenge
I felt that my daughter was struggling to understand some aspects of her course so I decided to get her a tutor, I wanted someone fairly young and energetic, and Perry certainly did not disappoint. He is articulate, engaging and teaches with a good deal of humour. Having dreaded the thought of having a tutor, she actually began to look forward to her sessions. Her understanding of the subject has improved enormously, and this is being reflected in her grades. I could not recommend Perry more highly.
He was really friendly and helpful. Perry broke down the information so it was easier for me to understand. Would definitely recommend!
