About Sarah and her Experience

I’m a Cambridge University graduate and qualified English and Drama Teacher with over 5 years of teaching and private tutoring experience, both at a group and individual level. I am a professional actor and graduate of Bristol Old Vic Theatre School with a FdA in Professional Acting.

I use my academic, acting and teaching experience to offer a unique coaching approach in a range of subjects including English Literature and Language, Drama and Oxbridge admission preparation and exam technique. An experienced teacher and tutor, I offer online and in person tutoring for 11+, KS3 students, English Literature and Language GCSE and English Literature A Level. With over 5 years experience in an Autism Resource Centre with 40+ Neurodivergent students, I also undertake 1 to 1 work with autistic students.

I am up to date with both AQA and Edexcel syllabuses, tailoring my tuition for the needs of individual students, from confidence building to demystifying Shakespeare to improving exam technique or working on specific areas of development. I also offer preparation for LAMDA exams, improving exam technique and performance and presentation skills for a range of age groups. I offer mainly online but also do face to face tutoring, particularly with students with autism in the South and South East London area.

Tutoring Approach

My style is warm, interactive, encouraging and thorough. The 1 to 1 or small class format allows for more personalised approach to tuition. I take a holistic view that whilst exam success or a target grade may be the aim of our sessions, enjoyment and confidence are essential underpinnings for any student if they are going to thrive and succeed.

My advice to students is always, ‘do the hard part first: whatever you find trickiest, be it spelling, a specific section of a Language paper or unpacking meaning from poetry, we will prioritise and work through together at your pace. You’ve got this!’

I am adaptable and intuitive, working with all levels of ability using a range of materials which I have developed to support successful academic and personal outcomes and from running group drama workshops using improvisation and confidence building.

Oxbridge Preparation

I offer interview training and preparation for students applying for Oxbridge interviews drawing on my personal experience and having participated in an Oxbridge preparation programme whilst at Sixth Form College. Given the competitive nature of the application process, it is important that applicants
understand that success is not just about grades but establishing an understanding of the ethos and approach in the Colleges and drawing on wider skills and experience to demonstrate their creativity, individuality and independent thinking. On graduating from Cambridge University, I coached students through successful application and have undertaken motivational sessions for sixth formers. As a successful graduate of Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, I draw on my training in confidence, communication and creativity and embed them in all my sessions.

Drama and Performance

I am a professional actor and offer group and individual coaching. I have run drama workshops for children and offer tuition to students taking LAMDA Acting, Speech & Drama and public speaking exams.

Whilst I utilise my drama experience in my tuition to help improve self-confidence, interview and presentation skills I also offer self-confidence and interview sessions on a 1 to 1 basis for a range of age groups.

About the lesson

Tutoring approach:

My style is warm, encouraging and thorough. The 1 - 1 or small class format allows for more personalised approach to teaching. I take a holistic view that whilst exam success or getting into prestigious drama school may be the aim of our sessions, enjoyment and confidence are essential underpinnings for any student if they are going to thrive and succeed.

My advice to students is always: do the hard part first: whatever you find trickiest, be it spelling, section B of Language paper 2 or unpacking meaning from a Shakespeare speech, we will prioritise and work through together at your pace. You've got this!

Any queries, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
