Shivani's English Literature and Language's Guide to Success!
From 58 C$ /h
The art of English Literature and Language is an important skill and one that is particularly interesting. Whether you are studying at 11+, GCSE or A Level, I'm here to help you succeed. As an undergraduate at university, going into my second year, I find I'm able to easily relate to younger pupils as I didn't sit my exams too long ago, and I'm up to date with the new syllabuses.
In our lessons we will target your strengths and weaknesses in order to help you proceed further in your learning. WE will look over past paper questions as I believe that is the best way to improve technique.

About Me
I'm currently an undergraduate student in my first year at Lancaster University studying English Literature with Creative Writing. My love for English started from a young age where I found myself effortlessly excelling in the subject throughout my time at primary and secondary school. I chose to study English Literature at university for the opportunity to engage with extraordinary literary works. As both a reader and writer, the path of English Literature and Creative Writing appealed to me and analysing texts from both points of view lead me to think in different ways to those of only one or the other, helping me to gain more valuable insights.
I've always loved helping people, whether that be my family or friends, tutoring others in a subject that I am so passionate about is something that means a lot to me, and I'd hope my eager attitude is relayed to the students that I teach. I believe building up students confidence in a subject is so important regarding their future success alongside the technical aspects of learning. I was always a visual learner throughout my GCSE's and A Levels, often creating mind maps and colourful word banks to help me remember quotations and contextual facts.
Some of my extracurricular activities include county level swimming and being a qualified lifeguard. I've also completed Grade 8 LAMDA, piano and singing and am a part of my University college netball team, competing and training 4 times a week.
