About Sheri

I love what I do. I have been studying and teaching English literature for over twenty years. I am a patient and enthusiastic tutor and I aim to inspire others to feel more confident when reading, analysing, writing, and speaking.

I have experience as a school teacher in the US and the UK. I taught English language and literature to secondary-school students (13-18 years old) in Los Angeles for seven years before moving to the UK. I have since been teaching at top independent schools, including a maternity cover at Eton College.

I also have experience of teaching in higher education. From 2000-2002, I was a Teaching Assistant in the English Department at Clark University in Massachusetts (USA). I taught ‘Fiction by Women Writers’, ‘Introduction to Medieval Literature’ and ‘American Gothic Fiction’. From 2015 to 2020, I was a Visiting Lecturer in the English Department at Royal Holloway, University of London, where I taught ‘Introduction to Medieval Literature’ and ‘Medieval Romance’.

My educational qualifications include a BA, MA, MPhil and PhD in English Literature. I earned my MPhil from the University of Oxford and my doctorate from Royal Holloway, University of London. I have previously been certified to teach AP English Language and AP English Literature. I am also an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.

All languages in which the lesson is available :

I help people to improve their reading, analysis, and writing; to pass exams; and to get into their dream schools and universities.

I have a broad understanding of English literature. I have taught texts and writers from a range of historical periods, including medieval and Arthurian literature, Shakespearean texts, and more modern writers. I am practised at guiding students through the writing process. I also teach research methods and academic writing skills.

I have experience of successfully preparing students for exams (GCSE; A-Level [AQA; OCR; Pre-U]; AP English Literature; AP English Language; ELATS; IELTS). I also assist with school and university applications (personal statements; interview coaching) and entrance exam preparation.

I would be happy to discuss and offer insight into literary texts and their historical and literary contexts, to review essay drafts and guide you towards improving your written work, and to help you to prepare for presentations and exams. I am open-minded, patient, and responsive to individual needs and learning levels.

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any queries! Thank you.
