Lexipro English Tutoring Personalised English Support

I began teaching in 2001, working across primary, secondary and further education in both state and independent schools.

In 2021, I founded Lexipro English Tutoring to provide high-quality, tailored support in a nurturing environment. Since then, I have worked with a wide range of learners, including Year 5 pupils preparing for entrance exams, GCSE students aiming for top grades and adults improving their English for exams, career progression or everyday communication.

At Lexipro, I work with both neurodivergent and neurotypical learners, creating an inclusive and supportive space for growth at any stage of life. Some of my students are children who struggle in mainstream school, others are home-educated, and many are adults returning to study after years away. I take the time to listen, adapt and build meaningful relationships that strengthen skills and build confidence.

I collaborate closely with families, schools and professionals to support younger learners, and I work directly with adults who want to progress in education, work or daily life. Communication with families is regular and open, and adult learners are supported with structured, motivating feedback.

At its heart, Lexipro exists to support learners who may have felt overlooked, whether in school, further education or the workplace, helping them to overcome barriers and reach their full potential. Long-term relationships with students and families are grounded in patience, trust and steady progress.

Many describe me as a standout educator, with learners staying long-term because of the visible progress they achieve.

Professional Experience

Lexipro English Tutoring – Private English Tutor

Whether working one-to-one or in a group, my tutoring is tailored to each student’s strengths and areas for development.

I specialise in the following:

GCSE English Language and Literature (all exam boards)
11+ and private/grammar school entrance exams
Functional Skills English up to Level 2 and general English for adults
EFL/ESL tutoring for academic, conversational and workplace use, including short revision practice lessons before important exams to strengthen skills and ensure success

I work with both neurotypical and neurodivergent students, including those with autism, ADHD, speech and language difficulties, dyslexia and barriers to school attendance. My approach is patient, empathetic and focused on developing both skills and self-assurance. Many GCSE students exceeded their predicted grades, often improving by multiple levels. ESL learners frequently progress from beginner to fluent, passing key exams and enhancing workplace communication.

South Thames College (Wandsworth) – Functional Skills English Teacher Supported adult learners (aged 25+) to develop essential reading, writing and speaking skills, many progressing from ESOL with limited confidence. I created a supportive classroom atmosphere where learners gained independence and communication skills, achieving a high exam pass rate, including 100% in Speaking & Listening.
