GCSE English, 11 Plus & Entrance Exams Tutor for Bolsover

parchment bar 2.webp

In Bolsover, I work with students who are determined to reach the highest levels of academic achievement in English. I am David, a fully qualified teacher with over 20 years of experience and a Bachelor of Education degree. I offer a premium level of tuition that focuses on the sophisticated linguistic and critical thinking skills required by the country’s top schools. My sessions are designed to challenge the student, ensuring they can produce the high-quality writing and analysis that elite institutions expect from their applicants, whether for 11+ entrance or the rigours of the GCSE English papers.

My approach is built to support students aiming for competitive school places, as well as providing the rigorous support needed for IGCSE and GCSE English excellence. By using the insights gained from twenty years in education, I help students master the complexities of the syllabus and perform at their best under exam conditions. This has led to a long history of students securing their preferred school places and developing a strong, lasting confidence in their communication abilities. My goal is to ensure that every student I work with possesses the tools to achieve their predicted top grades and thrive academically.

If you want a serious professional who can lift a student immediately, who knows the board requirements for doing well, and who can tailor tuition to the precise needs of the kid, then David is the man. My son is bright, but he was not well taught in English. David turned it all around within a matter of weeks and set him on track to a great GCSE grade. Don't mess around - go with David. Highly recommend.

David

David tutored our daughter  for 11+ English. I always found him to be very professional, organised and methodical in his approach. He always had a good supply of appropriate material that challenged her and pushed her to the next level. The two of them clicked very quickly and our daughter progressed very well. David is friendly and related well with her. Our daughter really enjoyed her sessions with him. She was accepted by all the top private and grammar schools that we applied to.

David has been helping my son prepare for his 11+ exams. We got started with extra tuition quite late, however already during this time I have noticed a big difference in my son’s attitude and study technique. He has significantly improved his creative writing and also his understanding of how to tackle verbal and non-verbal reasoning style questions. David is helpful and accommodating as a teacher and I am very happy to recommend him and his approach to teaching.
