About Damien
Over the past eleven years, I have had the pleasure of writing The Hearthmark Chronicles, an epic fantasy trilogy published by Monolith Books in 2021. On the first day, Out of Atlas hit 5 continents and hundreds of copies have now sold all over the world. "Damien Hine writes with razor sharp precision with not a single word going to waste." - The Daily Times "Compelling... Simply not to be missed!" - The Writing Institute An audiobooks for my first novel has already been released on Audible, with books 2 and 3 to follow. I have appeared as a panellist at Fantasycon 2021 and Eastercon 2022. I am also a graduate of Faber Academy, one of the foremost creative writing schools in the country. In my daily life, I have been working with young people for over 15 years and currently work in a secondary school in Cambridgeshire supporting students with special educational needs.

Many young people struggle to reach their potential in English and don't look forward to taking it for GCSE. However, I believe that with a little extra help, led by someone who will encourage and believe in them, it is a subject they can not only succeed in but also enjoy. With thirteen years of professional writing experience behind me, along with six years working day to day in schools, my lessons are fun and accessible. I will also stretch you and push you to achieve a little more each time we meet. I believe English is for everybody. You may not have found your way yet, but we can do it together. In our time together, we will go through the English curriculum and do everything we need to get a fantastic grade. Just bring a positive attitude and dedication to learning and I will do the rest.

Damien has tutoring my son for a couple of weeks now and so far its been going well.
My son particularly likes that Damien is really patient with him and teaches at a pace that really helps him in areas he struggles with.Our Son in year 7 got on instantly with Damien. Within 4 weeks there was an enthusiasm we had not observed with previous English tutors. Damien is very punctual and certainly knows what he is doing. He brings a lot of positive energy. There is a sense that some of his other aptitudes will be infused into the pupil- too early to tell
It's always a good sign when your child is eager to speak about their lessons after it has finished. I am delighted with the tutoring Damien has provided to both my children. My eldest loves English and so the tutoring was an opportunity to expand his creative writing abilities with someone who is now a published author. My youngest does not enjoy English and so Damien's work was cut out for him. Damien is extremely patient and talented at encouraging his pupils to engage with their work. Overall he has connected very well with my boys and I can highly recommend him.
Damien is an astute and critically acclaimed writer but also a kind and understanding teacher who takes his work very seriously. I would highly recommend him for any teaching position.
Damien tutored my two boys over Zoom during the pandemic, and I was so impressed! Damien has a real passion for creative writing and so it naturally spills over to whoever he's teaching. He prepares well and has wonderful, interesting ideas for lessons. The kids were engaged for the entire session and they finish with good pieces of writing. Even my reluctant writer was happy when it was time to sit down for English with Damien, which really says it all! He is a natural with kids and a good teacher. I can highly recommend Damien.
