I have a very small handful of tutoring spaces left for this term, if anybody knows anyone who needs a bit of a boost before the exams.

Anyone still unsure about the 10-marker (or 8 for NAT 5), let me know and I’ll see if I can help.
It’s definitely a major source of confusion.

After another successful year of excellent exam results, I’m just putting my diary together for next session. I have a couple of slots available.
It’s all done online now, so location isn’t an issue!

A podcast for those doing Liz Lochhead as their Scottish Text in the Higher English exam this week.

Listen to this episode from Headstart English on Spotify. A quick analysis of Box Room by Liz Lochhead. Meant for those doing Lochhead as their Scottish Text in this year’s Higher English exam; but can be enjoyed by all!

Reading is super important - even for dogs. Try and make the most of your free time during the summer holidays by picking up a really good book.
Hopper recommends ‘Cujo’ by Stephen King: although I’m a bit worried about his choice. 🐶 📖

Really chuffed that every single one of my students got an A this year. You’ve all been brilliant: especially given the rubbish year we’ve all had.

I have a few spaces available for next year. I’ve been working over the phone this year, so location isn’t an issue.

If you know anyone who might need help with their English - or who might benefit from a few catch-up sessions over the summer - tell them to like this page and send me a message through it.

This is the kind of precious gold you’re missing out on if you don’t subscribe to my tutoring podcast.
