About Brigitte
Hello!
I am an experienced and considerate tutor who can help pupils achieve maximum potential in their 11+/ 13 +/SATS/GCSES and A Levels. I believe that study outside of the classroom is essential in developing intellectual insight and enjoyment in relation to the chosen topic. I aim to help students in crafting coherent essays and exam answers.
My previous pupils have excelled in their exams. My GCSE students tend to achieve a level eight and nine in English Literature/Language. This is because I break down how to answer each exam question into effective steps that they can revise and practise. Recent 11+ students have been accepted into Wallington County Grammar School, Wallington Highschool for Girls, Emmanuel School, St Benedicts, Sutton Grammar School and Christ's Hospital.
I have worked for Ace Tuition; a company that excels in equipping students with the skills they need to get selected for top grammar schools. I have a degree in English and Creative Writing from Goldsmiths, University of London. I have a passion for literature which is crucial for any tutor hoping to encourage enthusiasm and a willingness to engage fully with the task at hand.
I will tailor each class to the individual to help their understanding and inspire confidence. I can create homework tasks/ mock exam questions/presentations, answer questions, critique drafts, analyse texts and teach effective methodologies to achieve high grades.
I look forward to meeting you!

Brigitte is a very welcoming and outstanding tutor and has helped my son. In a short amount of time, my son has showed tremendous improvement and achieved his goals. Worth every peny!
Brigette was helping my son for 3 months on creative writing for 10+ exam, which was his weakest area. She has some very helpful tips/guides and has a very gentle style of teaching. She always well prepared for her lessons to suit what my son needed. She is also very easy to work with. My son very much enjoyed all lessons with her. We highly recommend Brigette and will definitely use her again in a future.
A family friend whose daughter has been taught and benefited by Brigitte's tutoring recommended her to me. As he was a reliable person I took his recommendation at faith value. I found out for myself that Brigitte could make a difference in a young child's life. My daughter has progressed and benefited tremendously in her comprehension and writing skills since she started her tuition with Brigitte. Thus, I recommend her to anyone who wants to see a real change in their children academics.
Brigitte helped my daughter in creative writing, vocabulary, punctuation,comprehension and she has been instrumental for my daughter to pass her 11plus exam. I highly recommend her for parents who are looking for an excellent tutor I the subject.
Brigitte is an amazing tutor and I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs support with English at GCSE. I improved greatly under Brigitte and moved from a predicted 6 to a predicted 9 in the space of 7 months. I’m very grateful to Brigitte for all the help and support she offered me.
Brigitte has been a breath of fresh air with her positivity, enthusiasm and encouragement during her sessions with my son. This definitely rubbed off on him and boosted his confidence to the point that he looked forward to the sessions. He is in the midst of his GCSEs and seems to have approached the exams with courage, greater understanding and confidence, due to the supportive, gentle and nurturing teaching style of Brigitte. I would highly recommend Brigitte as a tutor .
We were really pleased with Brigitte teaching.She was understand well my daughters needs and missing points then help on the areas.
THANK YOU BRIGITTE!! I just got my results back and I got higher than predicted! Brigitte is an amazing tutor and I couldn't have done it without her. I was scared to go back to the classroom but she gave me my confidence back. I found it much easier to learn from her than my school teachers because she took the time to listen and was much more understanding! I will really miss having her as a tutor in College but would recommend her to anybody.
Brigitte has been a brilliant tutor to me. Her lessons are super engaging and she has really helped me feel more confident for my English exams. She is a wonderful teacher and very kind. I always look forward to Brigitte's lessons! I would highly recommend Brigitte as a tutor.
Brigitte tutors my two daughters - year 8 and 10
She plans in detail for their lesson and assesses them well in advance and finds out their interests so that she can develop them at their pace and get them motivated and engaged - we are pleased with the commitment she has shown to tutoring them so far. My daughters are comfortable and understand the syllabus through her teaching much betterBrigitte was a wonderful tutor who came fully prepared for the English lesson with my daughter,Brigitte gave my daughter so my ideas and ways to approach her English GCSE course work .
My daughter found the lesson very helpful and it steered her in the right direction.I have had many a tutor in my time but never has one been able to elucidate the essay writing process like Brigitte. She has helped me write at a standard I didn't know I was capable of! Since working with her I have massively improved in the planning and construction of my essays. Not only is she exceptional at the technical aspects of the job but is a genuinely lovely person, extremely patient and creates a friendly environment to study in. 10/10!
Over the past academic year Brigitte has provided English tutoring for my brother George as he works towards his GCSE exams this year. Throughout their lessons, George has drastically improved in technical areas such as spelling and grammar, as well as creative aspects such as forming plot lines and character development. His teachers have noticed a remarkable increase in his confidence and enthusiasm in the subject.
