About Frieda
I am a passionate and dedicated tutor who believes that every student is capable of achieving highly with the right support, encouragement, and teaching approach. I aim to create a positive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, building confidence, and developing independent thinking skills.
I studied English at A-Level and achieved A* grades in both English and History, subjects which strengthened my analytical thinking, essay-writing ability, and understanding of literature and context. Essay writing has always been a particular strength of mine, and I enjoy helping students learn how to structure arguments clearly, analyse texts effectively, and write with confidence and sophistication. I currently study Politics at the University of Edinburgh, where I continue to develop strong critical thinking, research, and communication skills. I have also tutored previously, giving me experience supporting students with different learning styles, confidence levels, and academic goals.
My passion for English extends beyond simply teaching exam content. I enjoy helping students understand the deeper meaning behind texts, develop strong analytical skills, and improve their written expression in a way that feels both rewarding and accessible. I understand that every student learns differently, which is why I adapt my teaching style to suit the individual needs, strengths, and goals of each learner.
Whether I am working with younger students building foundational reading and writing skills or supporting GCSE students preparing for exams, I always strive to push my students to reach the best of their abilities while ensuring lessons remain supportive, motivating, and enjoyable.
Alongside academic progress, I strongly value communication, patience, and consistency. I understand the importance of building trust with both students and parents to create a productive learning experience and help students feel confident in their progress over time.

I believe learning should feel engaging, supportive, and confidence-building from the very first few minutes of a lesson. I begin every session with a short “brain crunch” activity linked to the topic we are studying. For example, in English Literature this could be a quick quiz on poetry form and structure, a memory challenge, or a creative starter task. This helps students settle in, refresh prior knowledge, and feel more confident in a fun and interactive way.
My teaching style is patient, adaptable, and encouraging. I tailor lessons to each student’s learning style and academic goals, whether they need support building core skills, preparing for exams, or boosting confidence in the classroom. I focus on creating a calm environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes as part of the learning process.
With English specifically, I believe the context behind both Language and Literature is vital. I invest time not only in teaching the subject itself, but also in helping students contextualise passages, themes, and writers so they can develop a deeper understanding and produce more thoughtful analysis in their work. For example, when studying texts such as An Inspector Calls or poetry linked to conflict and power, I help students explore the historical and social context behind the writing so they can understand why writers make certain choices and how this strengthens analytical responses.
I also focus heavily on building independent thinking and exam confidence. Rather than simply memorising quotations and model answers, I teach students how to “think aloud” through a text by breaking down language, structure, and meaning step by step. I often model strong paragraphs and essays before guiding students to create their own responses independently.
Lessons regularly include vocabulary-building activities, retrieval practice from previous lessons, and exam-technique support such as timing questions, planning essays efficiently, and understanding command words like “analyse”, “compare”, and “explore”. I normally like to end lessons with a short creative writing task to encourage imagination, fluency, and confidence in written expression. I also give students 10 new words at the end of each lesson and encourage them to incorporate them into everyday life and future writing, as I believe consistent incorporation is key to developing strong vocabulary naturally and confidently.
Of course, depending on the age and needs of the student, my lessons adapt accordingly — whether I am supporting a 7-year-old developing reading and comprehension skills or helping a student prepare for GCSE examinations. Regardless of level, I aim to push every student to reach the best of their abilities while ensuring lessons remain engaging, supportive, and motivating.
Lessons are typically 1 hour long, although I can adapt timings depending on age and concentration levels. I have experience supporting children and young people across a range of abilities, and I always aim to make lessons both structured and enjoyable.
I work with primary and secondary school students, including those preparing for GCSEs. I also understand the importance of building strong relationships with both students and parents to ensure progress and consistency.

Frieda tutored my younger brother English for his 7+ and he went on to get into some top London schools such as Habs Boys and UCS. She is a patient, enthusiastic, and trustworthy teacher, and my brother looked forward to their sessions each week, despite having ADHD and previously struggling with English lessons in school. Definitely would recommend to anyone wanting to prep their child successfully for entrance exams.
Frieda tutored two of my children for their 11+ English exams this year and she was excellent throughout. She was always reliable, patient and very supportive, and both children really enjoyed working with her.
She helped improve their confidence as well as their English skills, especially in comprehension and creative writing. Her lessons were well prepared and suited each child individually, which made a big difference.
I would definitely recommend Frieda to anyone looking for an 11+ English tutor.View more recommendations
