About Tilly
I am passionate about literature and English, and am keen to pass on some of this enthusiasm! I am a keen musician and can talk about music for hours. I have a lovely dog called Henry and have work as a pet sitter, so would love to know if you have any animals!

Hello! I'm Tilly, an experienced English tutor with a first-class English degree and TEFL/TESOL qualification. I am enthusiastic, personable and hardworking: I will go above and beyond to engage you or your child.
I have two years experience tutoring mainly Primary level children from ages 7 to 11, and am passionate about helping people who may not have the resources to achieve their potential, or have fallen behind. I have extensive experience teaching the 11+: when tutoring with Pi Academy, I taught 11+ booster classes for up to seven students at a time online. My passion for helping young people drew me to volunteer as an English tutor with Action Tutoring, who help disadvantaged young people in English and Maths, so I am familiar with SATs preparation, as well as having a good understanding of English GCSE and A-level. I tailor my lessons to the needs of my students, taking into account their preferred learning style, to make the classes as stimulating as possible. My approach is calm and encouraging, as I know the importance in building confidence in learning, especially for those who need extra support.
My English and Music degree has helped me with essay writing and time management, and I am keen to pass this on.

I am writing to confirm that Tilly Gerrard has been volunteering with Action Tutoring from 5th November 2020 - present. Action Tutoring provides volunteer tutors to work with pupils preparing for GCSE exams or Key Stage 2 SATs in schools across the country.
I have been managing and working with Tilly since Nov ’20 and in that time, Tilly has volunteered as English tutor for year 6 students, for an hour and a half a week at Thornhill Primary School.
Tilly has supported 3 pupils on the current programme and worked closely with them, devising online lesson plans and activities, working to build both their subject knowledge as well as their confidence and study skills.
Tilly’s help has been very much appreciated by the school and has provided a wonderful opportunity for pupils to benefit from some intensive one to one support in preparation for their exams.
Tilly is a committed, reliable and enthusiastic volunteer, relating very well to those he came into contact with through the programme, including pupils and fellow tutors, and is a valuable volunteer both for the school and for our organisation.
