About Francis
Strong English skills don't just improve grades — they open doors in every subject and every career. Whether your child is preparing for the 11+, working towards their GCSEs, or pushing for top marks at A-Level, I can get them there.
I'm a native British English tutor with extensive one-to-one experience teaching students from primary level right through to A-Level. I specialise in the skills that actually move grades — close reading, analytical writing, essay structure, comprehension technique, and creative writing — and I tailor every session to your child's specific needs, exam board, and target school or grade.
11+ Preparation
The 11+ is high stakes and highly specific. I help students master the exact skills that selective schools and grammar schools test — comprehension, inference, vocabulary, and creative or continuous writing — so they walk into that exam room feeling genuinely prepared and confident, not overwhelmed.
GCSE English
Whether it's unpicking a poem for AQA Literature, writing a top-band Language analysis, or structuring a convincing argument, I know exactly what examiners reward and how to get your child consistently hitting those marks.
A-Level English
At A-Level the bar rises significantly. I help students develop the independent critical thinking, sophisticated analysis, and essay fluency that top universities expect — and that examiners at Edexcel, AQA, and OCR reward with the highest grades.
Many of my students have gone from predicted Cs and Ds to achieving As and Bs — not by luck, but through focused, structured preparation that targets exactly where marks are being lost.
Here's what working with me looks like:
1) Lessons built around your child's exact level, syllabus, and target school or exam board
2) 11+ comprehension and creative writing practice with detailed feedback
Essay and answer planning techniques that hold up under timed exam conditions
3) Close reading and analytical skills that transfer across every text and subject
4) Confidence building for students who find English daunting or overwhelming
Flexible online sessions via Google Meet — evenings and weekends available
All sessions are delivered online via Google Meet, so wherever you are in the UK you have access to a specialist British English tutor at a time that works for your family.
I offer a free first session — no commitment, no pressure. Just results. Get in touch today and let's get your child's English where it needs to be.

My Teaching Method
Every student learns differently, which is why I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Before we begin, I take time to understand exactly where your child is, what's holding them back, and what they need to achieve — then I build every lesson around that.
At the core of my teaching is critical thinking. Rather than simply drilling facts and formulas, I help students develop the ability to analyse, question, and apply knowledge independently — skills that don't just improve exam grades, but stay with them through university and into their careers.
My sessions typically include:
1) Concept breakdown — complex ideas explained clearly and simply, until
they genuinely click
2) Homework support — working through problems together so your child understands the process, not just the answer
3) Exam technique — learning how to approach questions strategically and communicate answers effectively
4) Regular progress checks — so we always know what's working and where to focus next
The goal isn't just to get through the syllabus. It's to build a student who feels genuinely confident in the subject — someone who can walk into an exam, or a university seminar, and hold their own.
If your child is struggling, plateauing, or simply not reaching the grade they're capable of, this is where that changes.

Responsible and very patient. Very good tutor. Highly recommended.
Francis is a kind and thoughtful teacher! With his help my English has greatly improved and I got my dream internship because of my English getting better thanks to Francis’ help!
Francis is a huge help! With his guidance my confidence in English has greatly improved. English was always a difficult subject for me because it is my second language. Now I am able to speak more fluently and able to be an excahnge student in the USA thanks to his lessons. I really recommend him!
Great lessons, great teacher! Francis has been teaching English for my child who is now studying in high school for more than a year. He is friendly and knowledgeable, with solid experience teaching English. He can guide my child to improve his English skills quickly.
