About Sammy
I'm a qualified English teacher and Goldsmiths/King's College alumnus with experience teaching all levels from Y7 to Sixth Form. I have a particular specialism in Shakespeare, focusing on him for my BA and MA, both of which received distinctions. I am currently in the process of putting together a PhD proposal about the comic actors in Shakespeare's company. My subject knowledge has been consistently called 'outstanding' in lesson observations. Taster lessons are free.
I also teach chess, and am a qualified Developmental Instructor with FIDE.

My teaching degree informs my online tutoring style: I make use of starters and plenaries at the beginning and end of the lesson, to engage the student and retrieve prior knowledge. I like to teach with slideshows to structure the lesson, with discussion points and writing tasks, as well as the occasional Blookets or Kahoot, which I believe are valuable tools for checking progress. As a professional English teacher, I have a good working knowledge of the OCR and AQA syllabuses from Year 7 to A-level.

Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
He really cares and never gets tired of going over something I struggle with. He's extremely patient and friendly and always makes me feel like I can speak my mind openly. I've learned so much through his encouragement to ask questions and dig deeper, in a way that I never could at school.
Sammy teaches my children chess and English. He’s highly knowledgeable - I’d recommend him for any exam support including for potential
Oxbridge candidates - and at the same time hugely enthusiastic and inspiring. He’d go to any lengths - my kids adored him and made terrific progress with him. Basically couldn’t recommend him too highly.He is hardworking, very intelligent and passionate about helping children and young people. He is a great enthusiast and a very clear and articulate communicator
Sammy is a great teacher. Lovely guy and definitely knows his stuff when it comes to education. Clearly cares about his students and works hard.
