*NEW* English Tuition
Individual tuition for English National Five and Higher, in person or online. Whether you're looking to boost your grade up a level or two, or to address more fundamental blocks to your progress, I can help.
Working one-to-one is a great way to address different learning styles and specific goals and gaps. Some students need to get their confidence up off the floor, whereas others want techniques to give their work that vital polish.
After many years of running online English and Creative Writing classes for home educated young people around the world, since moving to the Highlands I've also offered tuition for students in the Scottish school system. I believe that with a little time, patience and encouragement, all young people can make real progress in their learning.

Live, online creative writing courses
