About Shane
Do you want to finally understand Shakespeare? Without having to force yourself to learn stupid quotes? Do you find it difficult, as deep down inside you know you really don't care about the book? And, lastly, do you find English Literature boring? If the answer to any of these was a big, fat "YEEES!!", then I'm the tutor for you! My whole aim is to enable you to ENJOY English Literature. Yes.

My method of teaching is centred around the context of the texts so students can relate to the texts, and finally understand them, unlocking their hidden potential.

This is because the sheer difference between a B and an A* Student is the depth of their understanding of the CONTEXT of the texts they are studying, which many students lack in, as many think they are boring and not relevant to today's world. I aim to open a new world to them through Literature, and soon enough they will realise that the texts they study are just as relevant in today's society as they were when they were published. -Lessons range from 1-2 hours. -I teach Poetry, Shakespeare, Utopian Literature and 19th Century Novels. -Achieved Grade 8 in English Literature for GCSE. (I studied Macbeth, Animal Farm and A Christmas Carol for GCSE). (U

Absolute gem of a bloke. Explains English in a way that a student fully understands, which is extremely rare.
