About Sophie
An undergraduate in the Swansea University Medical School, students are often surprised that English is the main subject I tutor in. However, I've never been one to agree that you have a Science/Maths brain or an English brain! At GCSE level I achieved 8's and 9's (A* equivalent) in English language and literature. Since then I have helped students attain the very same and continue to use these skills myself to enhance the essays and proposals I write in my own degree. Teaching English is my passion, and I can relate to students who have to push very hard to keep up with others at the same level as them, and those who want to do the best they possibly can to go above and beyond what's expected of them. Focused, dedicated, and student-oriented, I work with the strengths and weaknesses of each of my students and push them to do as well as I know they are capable of, whilst knowing and understanding that these goals are incredibly personal- not every student wants an A*, not every student wants only to work towards exams and that's okay!

Sophie had been tutoring my son for the last few months in maths and science. I have seen real improvement in his confidence around the subjects and his grades reflect this. More importantly he really enjoys his lessons. I absolutely recommend contacting her to see how she can help.
Sophie has been tutoring my daughter for the last couple years in Science in preparation for the GCSCS. She has always delivered excellent quality sessions, focusing on topics of biology, chemistry and physics, which are relevant for these exam.
Most importantly, my daughter loves her sessions and I have seen big improvements in marks and confidence.
I absolutely recommend Sophie as tutor.A friend recommended Sophie to me as my daughter didn’t do very well in her GCSE mock after Christmas.
At first I was a little sceptical as all the lessons were online, but I need not have worried as my daughter soon settled into Sophie’s way of teaching.
My daughter lacks confidence but Sophie was very perceptive and picked up on this straight away.
After a couple of weeks I began to see my daughter’s confidence improve. Initially Sophie would prepare a draft lesson plan for the month, so my daughter always knew what text/topic they would be studying for each specific session. This was excellent, as my daughter was totally prepared for her lessons and was able to maximize her hour with Sophie.
Sophie also challenged my daughter with homework each week, and they would go through this during their next session. Sophie taught strategies on how to structure her work, and focused on exploring her knowledge of her text(s). She taught my daughter the importance of planning essays and writing quality over quantity, which I believe my daughter didn’t do previously.
They also focused on exam techniques and grade boosting by using specific ambitious language, which ultimately helped my daughter enormously.
Sophie would also update me on my daughters’ progress each week, so at every stage, I always knew how my daughter was ‘doing’, so that aspect was very helpful too.
It was amazing to hear my daughter talk so positively about Sophie after her session. Sophie was so motivating and enthusiastic and this undoubtedly had a beneficial effect on my daughter. My daughter just loved her sessions with Sophie and actually looked forward to them.
Moving forward to August 2022, my daughter achieved a GRADE 8 in her Literature exam. We were all so overjoyed. I can honestly say that my daughter would never have reached this level without the help of Sophie, that is a fact.
Sophie is a wonderful tutor, who is not only very knowledgeable, approachable, and professional but is also very committed to her student(s). She is so reliable and organised, I can’t praise her enough.
Needless to say, my daughter is continuing her tutoring with Sophie, as she is now studying English Literature at A Level.
If you are looking for a tutor, look no further, she is just fantastic.
Sophie was recommended from a highly trusted source and we have found her to be thorough and collaborative. Reflection of her engagement is visible in our son’s renewed commitment in the subject and we would be delighted to recommend Sophie to other parents.
