Experience
I am currently studying a Masters Degree in Theatre at the University of York having completed my Undergraduate Degree in English & American Literature with a First Class Honours last year. Having studied English for many years I understand that it has become stigmatised as academic and outdated. However, I believe that this subject is highly interesting and extremely valuable, and I look forward to sharing my passion for English with my students. I have previously worked as an English tutor for French students of all ages and thoroughly enjoyed helping them progress and develop their command of the English language. I have five years' experience of writing analytical academic papers to a high standard, and practising high level reading and comprehension skills. I also have experience of creative writing and journalistic writing, as well as editing and proof reading. I look forward to sharing my skills and experience with you as a teacher.
