What makes us unique?

Our students make exceptional progress as a result of our teaching approach: one founded on a love and deep knowledge of the subject. A lesson with us entails close discussion of literature with top-class minds: Colin is a prizewinning Oxford literary PhD scholar, and Charlotte is a Shakespeare expert with a PhD from the Shakespeare Institute (under the supervision of the General Editor of the Oxford Shakespeare). We are both actively researching and publishing academics.

With decades of teaching experience, we are well versed in exam criteria; but we do not reduce literature to a checklist of Assessment Objectives.

Instead, we teach a fine appreciation of nuance, detail, and expression, covering all areas of the subject. We get to know our students well, and we tailor tutorials around your own knowledge and areas of interest. Our students are enthused and so write with investment and deepened understanding.

This in turn results in outstanding results at examination, and exceptional admissions success: our students have been granted Eton King’s scholarships, placed first in the country at A-Level, and achieved remarkable acceptance rates at Oxford.

Teaching should be transformative: get in touch with us to discuss where you would like to go.
