Highly Qualified A Level English Literature Tutor in Stourbridge and Online
The transition from GCSE to A level can come as a shock for many students. Support can make all the difference, giving them the confidence, knowledge and skills to complete their secondary education.
Ideally, students come to me at the start of Year 12, so they can get support for the whole course. However, we can work on whatever the student needs, whenever they come.
Available for all exam boards, such as AQA, Edexcel, Cambridge OCR and Eduqas, A level Literature tuition involves the close study of several texts, including one Shakespeare play.
Students develop valuable skills like analysing texts from different points of view, using critical opinions and gaining understanding of the historical and cultural contexts. Along the way, they also acquire a more technical analytical toolkit.
Professional Tuition in A Level English Language and Literature, and English Language
For all exam boards, Language and Literature A level tuition involves learning a higher level of technical skills (linguistic and stylistic terminology) than either GCSE English or A level Literature. Students also study non-fiction texts and write their own fiction and non-fiction texts.
In contrast, A level English Language is more like a social science than an arts course, focusing on both linguistic terminology and sociological analysis of language. While students often find it daunting at first, with support they gain confidence and come to really enjoy it.
As part of my A level English Language tutoring, pupils also learn grammatical analysis, one of the underpinning frameworks that schools do not usually have time for. This makes a huge difference to their marks and confidence.
