About Claire

I hold an MA in English Language and Literature from Oxford University and I am a qualified CELTA teacher. Previously a solicitor of the Supreme Court of England and Wales, I worked in the City for 8 years as well as advising the Cabinet Office as an independent qualified lawyer. Having taught English for over a decade now, I am now studying for another MA in English Education at UCL in my free time. I teach English language and literature at GCSE and A-Level, in particular providing additional tuition and exam revision lessons. For younger students, I support students at KS2 and KS3 as well as preparing students for the English part of the 11+ and Common Entrance/ pre-tests.

About the lesson

Younger students
I have extensive experience preparing students for exams from the 11+, Common Entrance and Pre-Tests. All of my students have got into top schools in London - both private and state including Westminster, City, Francis Holland, St Paul's, Henrietta Barnett and Latymer. I have also prepared students for entrance exams to some of the UK's top boarding schools, with my students getting into a variety of schools including Sevenoaks, Tonbridge, Walthamstow Hall, Millfield and Dulwich College.

Older students
I provide additional lessons for those with a wide variety of needs. I have given lessons to gifted students to stretch them to reach their full potential grade 9s - particularly those with confidence issues. I have helped two students both predicted a 3, desperate for the all-important 4, get a 5 and 7. For some, I have provided weekly lessons from Year 9 through to Year 11, (and in two cases, I have provided tutoring through their A-Levels as well). In contrast, I have seen some students for a few four-hour sessions of intensive revision before exams. However, I also regularly provide gifted children with additional lessons. As well as preparing students in the run up to A-Levels, I have assisted them with their personal (“UCAS”) statement for applications to UK universities and with the preparation for the ELAT (for Cambridge University) and US SATs. I also help with preparation for interviews at top universities, with some of my former students going to Oxford, Cambridge, UCL and Harvard to date.

Overseas Students
I provide online tuition for overseas students applying to UK schools, who want to prepare for entrance exams or to improve their English generally. I also coach students for interviews at UK boarding schools.

English as a Foreign/ Second Language:
I first taught EFL in 2002, while still at university and I am now CELTA qualified. I have taught EFL to children as young as 6 as well as adults, and to students with a wide variety of mother tongues (Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, French, German, Portuguese, Arabic).

Adults
I now teach a number of businessmen and lawyers who wish to improve their business and/or legal English (due to my previous experience working in the City as a lawyer). These lessons are both private as well as those provided by employers.

Absolutely brilliant teacher! My son had a year with Claire to prepare for the 11+. He loved his lessons and never once complained about the time out of his day. He applied to St Paul’s, UCS and Westminster and got offers from all three. Thank you Claire!

I’m delighted to recommend Claire who is a really outstanding tutor; amongst the Hampstead mums, she is our secret weapon! After several false starts with others, I was given Claire’s name by a friend. She is extremely well qualified and this is her full-time job. She taught my eldest daughter from year 7 through to A level and they still keep in touch, she loved her lessons. My second daughter was underachieving and not very motivated, she started in year 10 and raised her grades from 4 to an 8 with Claire’s help. My youngest son is quick to make excuses and dash off his homework set by Claire, but I’m glad to say she keeps in close touch to ensure that we work together to make sure he achieves what he is capable of. Claire has a real rapport with children and teenagers who love their lessons and her!
