English Tuition

About Me

Hello, my name is Barbara and I am an English tutor. I am extremely passionate about teaching English in a way that’s fun and inspirational. Prior to being a tutor, I had a three year stint working as a journalist for the Financial Times.

I provide my students all the revision and exam materials they need to get top marks in English! My workbooks are tailored to meet their needs.

  • University Students


Availability and Cost:

I offer online lessons using Skype, Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams and my hourly rate is £120 + VAT. Interested? Email me: info@firstratetutors.com.

  • Mature students studying English as a second language to further their careers 

I hold a Degree in English and Politics from the University of Nottingham. I completed my Masters in King's College University, London and I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) which means I am a qualified teacher. I also hold an enhanced DBS Certificate.
