If you find that online tuition is your preference then I can offer hourly sessions tailored to your needs. You might want to focus on a set text for your literature GCSE or a specific element of the English Language exam.
Home Tuition
Developing Oracy Skills
Online Tuition
Having taught online so much during the pandemic I genuinely believe that there is no substitute for one on one in person tuition. I can come to your home weekly and focus on whatever you need for English GCSE, Drama GCSE or A level or Media Studies A Level.
I just request that an adult is always present during the time I am tutoring.

Developing Oracy Skills
I've always believed that the soft skills that drama develops such as communication, collaboration, confidence, creativity and compromise are vital for all areas of life and work. Some students find it harder to articulate their thoughts and this skill of oracy is now a golden thread running through all areas of the school curriculum.
I can offer activities to help develop your confidence in public speaking, for an interview or just so you can find your voice

Whether you have LAMDA exams, Trinity Guildhall or an audition for Arts Ed, Brit school or any Performing Arts course, I can advise you on monologues and help you to prepare these for performance
whether that be an in person audition or submission of an audition tape.
"Kathryn helped me through the process of applying for drama schools. Both for live auditions and self tapes. She guided me towards the right monologues to showcase my skills and celebrated with me when I was offered a place! I couldn't have done it without her.

English Testimonial

Audition and Performance Support
"My upcoming GCSE English exams were very daunting for me, particularly poetry
which I found challenging.
Kathryn's tuition helped me improve my writing and literature analysis skills
significantly. I discovered a new found confidence in describing abstract poetic
sentiment, something I previously had little grasp of.
I was predicted a C in English Literature and I achieved an A* grade at GCSE. I
personally attribute this (surprise) success to Kathryn’s adaptable approach to
learning, allowing me to maximise gains during our tuition sessions in the
months before my examinations."
