Experienced English Literature Tutor

Hi there, I’m Amira, a dedicated and friendly tutor with extensive experience in teaching GCSE, A-Level, and degree-level English Literature and Language. Over the past year, I have run one-to-one GCSE and A-Level sessions, helping students achieve top grades through a combination of past paper practice and discussion-based learning. I have worked across most exam boards, including AQA, OCR, and Edexcel.

I graduated with a BA in English Literature from the University of Edinburgh and have considerable experience supporting sixth-form students through the Oxbridge application process. This includes creating personalised reading lists, conducting practice interviews, and providing detailed feedback. Additionally, I offer support with personal statements and admissions tests.

I achieved a high mark on my undergraduate dissertation and am also available to provide dissertation support at the undergraduate level. This includes helping you structure and plan your research, refining your argument, and improving your writing style and register.

I have taught over 60 hours of KS3 classes in Manchester as part of a mentoring scheme, which gave me valuable experience working with students in Years 7-9. I am particularly skilled at helping students transition smoothly between KS2 and KS3, a period that can be challenging for many learners.

In addition to my passion for teaching, I am also an artist and theatre director. I am open to offering bespoke education in directing, acting, and other areas of performance and visual arts.
