My name is Eleanor and I am a top A-Level student at Wycombe Abbey School. I am currently studying English Literature, Spanish and Religious Studies but my true passion is English Literature, though I love to teach the language too. I would like to tutor children GCSE level or below during the school holidays or weekends in literature and language to prepare them for exams.
I have thus far only taught my relatives (my brother, who is taking his GCSE exams, and my cousin, who is doing Common Entrance at 11+), though I am extremely motivated and confident I will be capable of tutoring, and wish to gain experience.
If student is located outside of an area which is able to be reached by using an Oyster card, I would like for the travel cost to be covered.
