A new English teacher has joined our team to meet the growing demand for private tuition at the tutor centre and for one-to-one tuition in the Altrincham area. Like all the teachers who work for the Teacher Cooperative Tutor Centre, she is a subject specialist and she is local. She has worked both in primary and secondary schools. She is also a vastly experienced and successful private tutor. She knows exactly what is required to get students through their English Language and English Literature examinations.

In the unregulated world of private tuition, it’s imperative to make sure your child’s English tutor is qualified to teach the subject and is DBS checked. If they are not, run – don’t walk – to an English tutor who is.

Competition for university places is becoming increasingly fierce and that’s why it’s so important for students to obtain higher grades at GCSE in the core subjects. A grade B in GCSE English could help secure your child’s place at university. A high standard of English will also help them with their A-Levels and degree because English is the foundation of success in most other subjects. Furthermore, the ability to communicate effectively is essential in most professions.
