About Lily
I moved to the UK at a very young age, and I still remember what those first days of learning English felt like. Today, I speak fluently like a native, and I would love to help others reach that stage too.
I graduated from UCL with a degree in English, and I truly believe that mastering a language is possible if you put your mind to it. With the right guidance, support, and confidence, you can absolutely get there.
For students seeking private tutoring in GCSE and A-level English Language and English Literature, my specialist disciplines, I know exactly what it takes to achieve top grades. I like to stay realistic and first understand where each student currently stands, because progress starts with clarity. Having lived in the UK for only two years, I achieved Grade 9s in both GCSE English Language and English Literature, and later A*s in A-level English Language and Literature. From experience, I’ve learned that success is less about overwhelming amounts of information or perfection and more about mastering the right techniques. I can share the exact strategies and exam techniques that helped me achieve top marks, and you can decide whether this approach feels right for us to move forward together.
I would love to support you at whatever stage you are in your journey whether you’re just starting out, building confidence, or aiming for the very top grades.

For my beginner students, I believe the best way to learn is through both traditional and non-traditional methods. For example, we could create a plan to read a chapter of a book and discuss language choices together, watch films in English, or even explore events I can recommend for real-life language practice. From there, we can talk and tailor everything to your individual goals and needs, making the learning experience personal, enjoyable, and effective.
For my GCSE and A-level students, we will focus heavily on understanding exam papers, grade boundaries, and the examiner’s approach. We will go through questions one by one until responding becomes natural, knowing exactly which literary techniques to select and, most importantly, developing the analytical skills to explain why those techniques are used and how they create meaning.

I highly recommend Lily as an English teacher. She helped me enormously with my A-level English through engaging, well-structured lessons that completely changed the way I approached the subject. Lily encouraged me to think about English in new and more analytical ways, which had a real impact on my confidence and, most importantly, my grades.
Lily is an exceptionally professional and patient teacher, and I am convinced she can help anyone improve their English, from complete beginners to those who simply want to fine-tune their language skills. Because of my work, I had to travel to the UK and communicate confidently with our customers, which meant I needed to significantly improve my English.
Over the course of about a year, Lily guided me step by step to a professional speaking level. Her lessons were always well-structured, practical, and focused on real-life and business situations, which made a huge difference for me. She adapts her teaching style perfectly to your level and goals, and creates a comfortable environment where you feel confident to speak and make progress.
I am truly grateful for everything she has taught me and will be eternally thankful for her support. I would highly recommend Lily to anyone serious about improving their English. Thanks a lot Lily!Lily has been teaching me English for 3 years and I have felt such a big improvement. It’s really hard moving from abroad to a new city and not speaking the language but Lily has been so welcoming, kind, and helpful with teaching me the language. I really could not recommend her more, you will be in good hands!
