"Teachers open the door, but you must enter by yourself." - Chinese Proverb

Hello, I'm Natalie: a private tutor, mentor, university lecturer, examiner and published writer. Thank you for looking at my profile. I would be delighted to discuss your tutoring needs with you. After reading all of the information on my profile, please send me a message letting me know: • who the tuition is for • how many hours per week are required • what subject area/level of course • availability for tuition and when you would like it to start.

More about me...

I hold an undergraduate degree in English, a PGCE specialising in the post-16 sector, and have seven years of experience working as an A level and GCSE English Language and Literature teacher in a high performing sixth form college. I was Lead Examiner for the A Level in Creative Writing (AQA), examiner for English Language AS Level (AQA) and am on the register of Cambridge International GCSE examiners, so have a rich perspective to offer my students as they progress through their studies.

My additional specialism is Creative Writing: I hold both a Masters and Doctorate in this subject and am Lecturer in Creative Writing at a reputable university. I am a published poet with my own collections and many appearances in anthologies and journals.

Teaching Experience

Since 2014, I have tutored hundreds of students in English Language and Literature. In this role I am most proud of the work I have achieved with one of my long-term students who has ASD. From day one, I adapted sessions to meet his needs and gain his interest. I spent time getting to know him and found out that he liked Minecraft, so created a reading comprehension resource themed on the game. He loved it and said that he really enjoyed our first session together as a result. I am still tutoring him weekly after nearly four years and have built a great rapport with him and his mum. This is the feedback I received from her: “Natalie is helping our autistic son with his English. She is very kind, patient, helpful and professional. Our son enjoys Natalie’s lessons and is excited to see her every week. He feels much more confident and happier. Natalie is a wonderful tutor and I would highly recommend her.”

I have experience of teaching and tutoring English Language, Literature and Combined English from Key Stage 2 up to Further Education level. I have taught the AQA Certificate in English Language (iGCSE), AS/A2 English Language (Spec B), AS/A2 English Literature (Spec B) and AS/A2 English Combined (Spec A). Having tutored students of the AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC, Eduqas and Cambridge International boards, I am very familiar with a range of specifications. I have a keen eye for detail when appraising essays and have received excellent feedback for my critiques of student work.

I also have experience of adult, undergraduate and postgraduate teaching in the fields of Creative Writing (specialising in poetry) and Communication/Functional Skills. I am currently Unit Leader and Educational Content Creator for the Masters in Creative Writing at Arts University Bournemouth.

Tutoring Approach

My approach is person-centred, kind, calm, motivational and empathetic, with an aim to boost confidence, which I believe is vital to academic achievement.

I spend time getting to know my students and encourage the practice of English skills within topic areas of personal interest to them. Being mental health and neurodivergence aware, I promote safety, trustworthiness, choice, collaboration and empowerment as I build a rapport with my students to better support their individual needs. Sessions are therefore bespoke and flexible, learner-focused rather than teacher-led.

I am a good listener and can empathise with my students, helping them to see areas for improvement in their work and offering practical advice and tips on how to develop it further. From students who require regular face-to-face online sessions, to those who require a single essay critique by email correspondence, I am able to meet the needs of a wide range of learners.

I encourage students to be proactive and resourceful in their approach to English, guiding them through the processes of learning and problem-solving. I invite students to discuss what they would like to work on each session and establish the ways in which I can best support them. Any materials to be looked at during the session time can be emailed to me or shared online. I also offer guidance on setting targets over a course of sessions so that students can meet their aims and manage their study time effectively.

Ultimately, I aim to help my students fulfil their academic potential whilst also developing the range of skills needed to achieve their aspirations in life.

First Tutors

Natalie has a lovely manner - she is patient and positive and my son has found the sessions beneficial - he has definitely regained confidence with English. Thank you so much.

Tutor response

Thank you for the wonderful feedback, Angela. I'm so pleased your son's confidence in English has grown.

First Tutors

Natalie was fabulous! My son has always found English a very tricky subject - he had very little confidence and was very anxious on the way to his GCSEs. Natalie’s coaching was bespoke to Max and structured to fit the areas of focus he was concerned about. Their online sessions together really boosted his knowledge, understanding AND confidence. The last I think is the most important of all 3. Highly, highly recommend Natalie! Thank you Natalie

Tutor response

Thank you for the excellent feedback Cat! It was a pleasure to work with Max and I wish him all the best for his exams. Really lovely to work with you both. All the best, Natalie

First Tutors

Good, organised and reliable tutor. Arranged summer tuition to cover aspects of English Language that needed support in preparation for the GCSE exams. My son enjoyed the lesson and found them very useful.

Tutor response

Thank you Filippo for this kind feedback. I'm pleased to hear that your son enjoyed the lessons and found them useful. It was great working with him and I wish all the best for his future studies.

First Tutors

Tutor response

Thank you for this excellent rating Mirela!

First Tutors

Due to Natalie's busy schedule, she offered email support. My son needs tutoring support as well, which Natalie cannot schedule. Therefore, we have decided not to book any email support time with Natalie. As the time is short for exams, very limited tutors are available there is not much point in exploring the options.

Tutor response

Thank you for your 5* rating Bilal. It's a shame that this was a relatively short relationship in this busy run up to exams. I wish your son all the best for his A Levels.

First Tutors

Natalie is helping our autistic son with his English. She is very kind, patient, helpful and professional. Our son enjoys Natalie’s lessons and is excited to see her every week. He feels much more confident and happier. Natalie is a wonderful tutor and I would highly recommend her.

Tutor response

My son feels that Natalie teaching is very helpful with his English writing and he is very happy to have a tutor like her. Thank you Natalie.

Tutor response

Thank you for your kind feedback Sonam. I'm glad that your son is finding the sessions helpful - it's really encouraging to see how much progress he is making. Best wishes, Natalie

First Tutors

My son has really appreciated Natalie’s structured guidance for his preparations in the Cambridge English Literature A level exams. Natalie’s insights in her discussions on the various texts have rejuvenated and motivated his progress over the months she had tutored him. And his excellent results during his school exams have been testament to this.

Tutor response

Thank you for your feedback, Nelson. I'm so pleased that your son found the tuition helpful. All the best for his exams! Best wishes, Natalie

First Tutors

Natalie is very friendly and patient. She had helped me a lot with catching up and taught me very useful techniques in answering exam questions. I would highly recommend her and I look forward to future tuition with her if needed.

Tutor response

Thank you for your kind comments, Mia. All the best for your future studies!

First Tutors

Natalie helped me to achieve an A in A level English Language ( 3 off an A*). I really enjoyed her lessons and feel they contributed greatly to my success! I highly recommend Natalie as a tutor. Thanks so much!

Tutor response

Thank you for your kind feedback - congratulations on this fantastic result!

First Tutors

Since having tuition with Natalie, Sophie’s confidence and understanding of both English language and literature has grown immensely. It has also helped with the other subjects she is studying too. Many thanks Natalie, I’ll let you know her results in August.

Tutor response

Thanks Karen - all the best for Sophie's results!

First Tutors

Natalie is a well-qualified tutor with very good knowledge of the A level syllabuses and exam requirements. Her skills in identifying weaknesses of individual student quickly and providing precise and effective guidance and instructions have helped my daughter to gain insight and confidence in the subject within a short period of time. Despite Natalie’s busy schedule, she is always prepared to give my daughter support whenever she needs it. I am very grateful for Natalie’s professional attitude and she always keeps parents informed of the progress. I would highly recommend Natalie.

Tutor response

Thank you Henry, for your detailed feedback. It is great to see how far your daughter has progressed in English.

First Tutors

Natalie is an excellent tutor.I was able to achieve high grades in my English GCSEs.I was able to improve my technique so that my writing was more precise and she helped me with analysing texts. Nandana

Tutor response

Thanks for the feedback, Nandana. Congratulations on your fantastic results!

First Tutors

Natalie is very professional and really helped my daughter gain confidence through her supportive and encouraging approach. Highly recommended!

Tutor response

Thank you for the great feedback, Veronique. I wish your daughter all the best for university.

First Tutors

Natalie is very professional, punctual & an inspiration to those that do not find the English subject naturally as clear as other academic topics. My daughter's confidence not only in English but across other subjects that involve essay writing/answers has improved significantly under Natalie's expert tutelage. The tutoring sessions have meant that she is now focused on structure/content in all subjects along with social interaction also. Count yourself very lucky to obtain one of the few spare slots that Natalie occasionally has on offer…

Tutor response

Thanks Kevin - it has been a pleasure to tutor your daughter. Best wishes, Natalie

First Tutors

I would recommend Natalie to anyone who has a child that needs help with English. Although my son was an avid reader , he had an aversion to the art of writing. After a year's tuition with Natalie he came out with Grade 5 in both English Literature and English Language. It also had a major impact on all of his other subjects which meant that his overall passes amounted to 7 GCSE passes of C to A!

Tutor response

Thank you for your feedback. Congratulations to James on his success. All the best for the future.

First Tutors

Natalie has tutored both of our children. She was been so helpful to our daughter Alice in her second year of A level English Lit Lang and helped her progress from a poor E grade at AS level to a couple of marks off an A grade at A2 level. Alice got so much out of her sessions with Natalie, and the techniques she learnt helped her enormously. She achieved 98% in one of her English papers and we think this is largely due to the analytical approach she had learnt from Natalie. We were so impressed and thankful that we returned for Natalie's support for our son Tom in the run-up to his GCSEs. A very different student to his older sister, he too really enjoyed his sessions with Natalie and got so much out of it. He has gone into his exams confident and felt they went well, so we could ask no more. Thank you so much Natalie for your wonderful approach. Ann

Tutor response

Thanks for your very detailed and positive feedback, Ann. It was an absolute pleasure to tutor Alice and Tom. I wish them both all the best for their bright futures!

First Tutors

Natalie has been an excellent English tutor who quickly understood Georgia's GCSE needs and helped her to develop her skills and confidence. Georgia found the one to one weekly sessions very helpful in particular when discussing work done at school and producing a model answer. She also found the application of Natalie's methods to understand and produce a correct interpretation of the question very useful in producing a more improved and appropriate response. Natalie is a very pleasant, calm and approachable tutor. She has been very flexible regarding the re-scheduling of sessions when necessary. The homework set each week was very constructive in boosting Georgia's learning. We would fully recommend Natalie's services and we're hoping for some good results! Thank you Natalie!

Tutor response

Thank you for the detailed feedback, Adela. I wish Georgia all the best for her remaining exams.

First Tutors

Fantastic tutor who has helped my son immensely in his GCSE English Literature. Certainly been worthwhile and would whole heartedly recommend.

Tutor response

Thank you for your kind feedback, Araf.

First Tutors

Natalie was extremely helpful with improving my personal statement. Responded quickly to my emails and checked through my work thoroughly. Would definitely recommend her! I think the feedback she has received from everyone speaks for itself. Truly amazing. Thank you Natalie.

Tutor response

Thank you very much for the excellent feedback, Meera. You were a pleasure to work with. All the best for the future. Kind regards, Natalie

First Tutors

Wonderful tutor, enjoyed every session and felt I was learning something new every week. Helped me go from a B grade to an A* in the space of just a few months as well as improving my own confidence

Tutor response

Thanks for the excellent feedback, Catrin. All the best for university!

First Tutors

Natalie has been an excellent tutor for my daughter making the sessions interesting and engaging. Cecily has developed a greater understanding of the subject and has very much appreciated all Natalie's help in her preparation for her A'Levels.

Tutor response

Thank you very much for the positive feedback, Sarah. I wish Cecily all the best for the future. Kind regards, Natalie.

First Tutors

Natalie helped my son with with AS level English. We don't know the results yet, but he has certainly felt more confident about approaching his exams.

Tutor response

Thanks for the brilliant feedback, Tara. I wish your son all the best for his exams. Best wishes, Natalie.

First Tutors

Natalie was very responsive and organised. I appreciated how clear and structured she was, outlining what would be involved and the timeframe, so we knew exactly what to expect. Natalie pulled out the stops to review my son's A level English coursework before his imminent deadline and was a big help.

Tutor response

Thank you for the detailed and excellent feedback, Susan. I wish your son all the best for his exams. Kind regards, Natalie.

First Tutors

Amazing tutor!

Tutor response

Thanks Ambereen - all the best for your exams!

First Tutors

Tutor response

Thank you for the excellent feedback, Dulcie. I wish you all the best for the exams this summer. Kind regards, Natalie

First Tutors

AS English coursework re-sit. After searching locally, to no avail, for someone to help my son with feedback, in particular with regard to the structure, on his 2 essays, I came across Natalie's profile on First Tutors. Her communication was excellent even down to keeping me in the loop with what she had suggested for my son. Her feedback on his essays was extremely detailed and helpful and he has been able to improve them no end. I would not hesitate to use Natalie again or indeed to recommend her to anyone else. Highly recommended.

Tutor response

Thank you for your kind comments, Sandra. I'm really pleased to hear that my feedback was helpful in enabling your son to structure his essays more effectively. I wish him all the best for his coursework. Kind regards, Natalie.

First Tutors

Natalie has provided so much help for my son to prepare for upcoming iGCSE exams in English and English Literature. The quality of her teaching is superb, I couldn't recommend Natalie more.

Tutor response

Thank you Koichi - it is such a pleasure to receive your positive feedback. Your son is making excellent progress and is improving with every session. All the best, Natalie.

First Tutors

We couldn't find a time when my son and Natalie were both available so we have found someone else to do this.

Tutor response

Thank you for your feedback, Esther. I am of course surprised to have received a rating of 3/5 when no tuition had taken place. You had informed me that you wanted to try another tutor first and then would get in touch with me if that didn’t work out. Following that there was no contact from you in order to arrange a suitable time for your son’s introductory session, which is a shame as I would have been happy to find a mutually convenient time. I wish you and your son all the best for the future.

First Tutors

We were looking for a tutor with specialist knowledge of the English Language A2 who was able to give feedback relevant to the higher end of the grade spectrum. Natalie's response was prompt and her feedback very detailed, astute and helpful. This has been a relief as it is difficult for students to understand what is necessary to reach the higher grades in the English Language A2 and also difficult to find tutors who have sufficient specialist knowledge to help with this. Natalie has exceeded our expectations and is highly recommended.

Tutor response

Thank you Emma, for the detailed and very positive feedback. I look forward to working with you and your son again in the future. Kind regards, Natalie.

First Tutors

Extremely good at getting to the meat of the issue. Vast knowledge of literary techniques and is also very good at helping with structuring of essays. All in all, my son's AS level English feels safe in her hands.

Tutor response

Thanks for the feedback, Amanda. It is very encouraging to have your comments. Your son is responding well to my feedback and is making great progress with each essay he writes. Best wishes, Natalie.

First Tutors

Excellent communications from the very start. My son, who was apprehensive to say the least about sykpe tutoring, has had a total change of heart thanks to Natalie and he finds the hour each week they spend online incredibly valuable. Natalie has invigorated his enthusiasm - thank you so much.

Tutor response

Thank you Polly, for the detailed feedback. I'm really pleased to hear that your son finds the Skype sessions helpful and that his enthusiasm has been rekindled. Best wishes, Natalie

First Tutors

I recently received my results back and achieved an A in my ELLA 3 exam, which could not have been done without the help from Natalie. I highly recommend studying with her, Skype calls were always on time and extremely informative and helpful, where no time was wasted and the full hour was dedicated to work. Thanks to Natalie I was able to go from a B at AS to an A at A2, gaining me access into my first choice university to study Law. Thank you Natalie for all your help, couldn't have done it without you :)

Tutor response

Thank you for the wonderful feedback, Jack - congratulations on your brilliant results! All the best for university too. Kind regards, Natalie.

To sum Natalie in a nut shell; "so helpful"- Natalie has helped me so much with my coursework which has ultimately enabled me to go from a Grade E to a Grade B.

First Tutors

Could not have asked for anyone better. My son went from a worried, stressed student to a confident, self assured one in just a few sessions. Natalie was incredibly clear about what was needed to be done in a very short space of time. More than that she cared about my son's teaching and shot back questions and highlighted an issue that needed sorting out with the college that we were not even aware of. Cannot recommend Natalie more. Excellent.

Tutor response

Thank you for the fantastic feedback, Kate. I wish your son every success with his Language Investigation. Kind regards, Natalie.

First Tutors
