About Lydia
I have been a Secondary English teacher for 5 years. During this time I have taught children from 11-18 years old and helped a variety of abilities to achieve excellence.
I have been a GCSE examiner for 3 years and a tutor for 2 years - both of these roles have awarded me the opportunity to build on my skills as a teacher and become even stronger with my teaching capabilities.
If you were to hire me, you would not be hiring a tutor of English straight out of university, but a teacher of English with more experience and training than most.

I approach each topic by breaking it down into key sections. To prepare for the literature GCSE, this must first be broken down into papers and then sections within papers. I will focus on context, analysis, quotation learning and plotting exam essays. For the language GCSE, this is again broken into papers but the teaching will be centred around skills and response writing.

English was my son's weakest subject in school but since his tutorials session with Lydia which only started from last year, he's English improved massively. He is doing his GCSE at the moment and he is very confident and it's all thanks to her and I wish I knew her sooner so my son wouldn't have struggled with his English in school . In addition She is very warm and friendly .l recommend her 100%.
Lydia is an incredibly hard working individual with a fantastic ability to help students achieve. Over the years I have worked with her she has shown a range of skills vital to teaching. Her lessons are differentiated so anyone can be successfully regardless of their target grade. Lydia is able to include challenge tasks to stretch students to reaching their potentials. Lessons are fun and inventive, whilst still having a clear structure and learning intervals. She is able to tailor her lessons to the individuals learning style and need. I would highly recommend Lydia Kendall as a tutor as she genuinely cares about her students and their results. Due to this care she is hard working, driven and passionate about what she teaches.
Lydia tutored me to retake an English GSCE and her methods were amazing. She was able to adapt to my learning style which I hadn’t been able to find with any other tutor previously. She’s incredibly understanding and easy to get on with and she made me feel very comfortable on our very first session. I would recommend her to anyone or any age if you are struggling with mainstream teaching methods or if you need someone to invest a bit more interest in your way of learning to help you improve.

Lydia is a friendly and approachable tutor who always puts the needs of her pupils first. I am happy to recommend her to anyone who is requiring extra tutoring.
Lydia is a very trustworthy and efficient tutor. I had her for 2 years and my grades improved significantly during the time I was with her. I highly recommend Lydia to all, as she’s a lovely person but also knows how to get the job well done effectively.
