About John Morgan
My degree is in English Literature and I have taught English for 11+ and 13+ for twenty years. I am mindful of the different requirements for north London senior schools and, more importantly, I have developed valuable understanding of the how to respond to the range of questions and how to model this for children. I am a firm believer that they have a range of knowledge and vocabulary, they just need the value of this demonstrated to them so that they can make the right connections with their learning and excel. I therefore carry out tactical and informed preparation tailored to each individual. I am a published writer and poet and my love of literature also drives me to run writing and reading sessions for students from Years 5 to 10, looking at treatment of themes, genre, and authors' styles.

General
I believe in working 1:1 as guidance and teaching is more effective when paired with direct observation, though online has its own advantages too.
Comprehension
I teach concrete methods enabling students to transcend formulaic written responses and understand how they can adapt and apply the language they have acquired. Teaching is tailored to needs and next steps: having taught from 9+ to scholarship at 13+ I ensure the development of sustained and convincing responses, whether about characters, setting or mood and tone.
Creative Writing
I work with students on developing their creative writing both in terms of grammatical accuracy and stylistic, structural considerations. As a published author I enjoy sharing my knowledge of the craft.
Reading
I also conduct reading sessions, developing appreciation of genre, authors, themes and writing styles for 9+ through to 15 years of age. These can be on an individual or group basis.

We are extremely grateful to have found such an excellent private tutor. He is incredibly patient, understanding, and supportive. He works step by step to help concepts really sink in. He encourages independent thinking by setting problems, guiding thought process, and then talking through solutions in a clear and memorable way. He helped our eldest son gain a place at this first-choice school through the 11+, improving his confidence and grades in Maths and English. He also supported him across a wide range of areas - from Maths to learning lines for the stage. We are now seeing the same benefits with our youngest, who is currently preparing for the 11+. His calm approach, structured methods, and ability to build confidence make him an outstanding tutor and we would highly recommend him.
John is a fantastic tutor for 11+. His approach is very calm and methodical, very quickly putting the kids and parents at ease and giving confidence in his process. John supported us with English and interview skills. With his help, we achieved a great range of secondary school offers including our preferred choice. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending John.
John has been an outstanding English tutor for my son during his 13+ preparation. Thanks to his guidance, my son received offers from top schools. The lessons were engaging, focused, and truly boosted his confidence and performance.
I highly recommend John to other Superprof members. His blend of professionalism, passion for teaching, and ability to connect with students, makes him an exceptional tutor.
We have known John since my son was in Year 5, and he worked with him once a week, providing personalised English lessons in preparation for his academic scholarship exams.
John’s guidance has been exceptional. He not only raised my son’s English ability to scholarship level, but also taught him effective exam techniques and helped build his confidence. Throughout the process, John provided frequent updates and communicated his teaching plan clearly, giving us full confidence in his approach.
Thanks to his support, my son was successful in obtaining his academic scholarship. We are truly grateful for John’s dedication and highly recommend him to any family seeking an outstanding English tutor.I am delighted to recommend John Morgan, who has been an exceptional English tutor to my son, Otto (15), for several years. John’s approach goes far beyond teaching language skills—he has truly inspired Otto to discover the joy of reading and the art of storytelling.
Through engaging discussions and thoughtful guidance, John has helped Otto appreciate literature not just as words on a page, but as a gateway to ideas, imagination, and meaning. His ability to weave life themes into lessons has been invaluable, giving Otto confidence and perspective that extend well beyond the classroom.
I recommend him without hesitation.View more recommendations
