GCSE: English, Sociology, Media Studies A Level: English, Media Studies University Level: English Experience with Nursery level / KS1 / KS2 English schooling system Hi, I'm a 23 year old student at Aston University studying English Language and Literature. I enjoy reading a lot, my favourite book is Once in a House on Fire - Andrea Ashworth as it tells a tale of a girl who has come from a struggled upbringing due to her step dads and I just feel her emotions throughout the book are very relatable to readers and I resonated well with the morals being taught within the autobiography. I practiced photography and enjoy capturing landscape photos.

Hi, I am Jacob Odeh, I am a Nigerian but I live in the Turkish Republic. I love meeting people and I really love music. I have worked as Radio Presenter, an Elementary school Teacher and currently as an Online English Tutor. Over a period of time, i have come to understand that Learning a new language can be tiring or exciting depending on the applied approach. As humans, communication is a necessity in every sphere of life and to achieve success. I am not the best, neither do I have all the answers but I can assure you that if you study with me, we can find all the answers and grow together.

By subjects
English tutoring to improve grades and self-confidence
Studying English at school includes technical aspects of the language such as grammar and vocabulary, and English literature focuses on text analysis and creative writing.
English-related skills such as reading and writing are vital throughout school, regardless of the subject matter. Learning how to communicate your thoughts clearly boosts self-confidence, improves vocabulary and leads to better exam results.
GoStudent English tutors offer one-to-one lessons tailored to your child’s needs, helping them understand where their weaknesses are in their written work and working with them to improve their writing style.
The advantages of studying English
English is an essential subject in the national curriculum. All students are required to pass English exams at primary school and English makes up one of the three core GCSE subjects in secondary school.
Studying for an English and Literature A-level or an undergraduate or master's degree can be hugely rewarding. Not only will you learn a great deal about the language, you will also be introduced to radically different ways of understanding and explaining the world.
An English degree can open the door to a wide range of career opportunities in fields such as teaching, editing, journalism and law. There is also a growing market for teaching English as a second language either at home or overseas, where the demand might be higher.
English tuition at primary school
English tuition at primary school is an excellent way to prepare for the future. Studying reading and writing helps with English language skills in general, and learning about different authors and their works may very well ignite a passion for reading in your child, laying the foundation for study at a higher level.
English exam preparation and English revision classes
GCSE exams are the qualifications students take at the age of 16. GCSE English provides a solid foundation for studying humanities courses at a higher level, and skills taught include writing essays, reading comprehension and text analysis.
If your child choose to continue to study English Language and Literature at A-level, it's extremely important for them to achieve a solid GCSE foundation.
English tutors can provide:
Working with an English tutor on a one-to-one basis boosts confidence and passion for the subject, too.
