As an experienced secondary school teacher, I specialise in GCSE, A-Level and IB English.

Patrick has been a fantastic tutor for my daughter and helped her achieve a grade 9 in her English literature and a high 8. He has been a great help all around, and she found his assistance invaluable.

We are glad we got Patrick to help our son in the last three months before his CIE English Literature IGCSE. Patrick was able to move him on from an 8, which he had scored in his school mocks, to a 9 in the actual exam - no mean feat for a teacher as it gets incrementally more difficult to help students achieve higher marks towards the top end of the spectrum.

Our son had received solid help and supplementary support from his English teacher at school, but the extra essay feedback, tips and teaching Patrick gave made all the difference.

Patrick is an excellent teacher with great feedback on the homework we have to do. I’ve learned a lot in the past months, and I know I will achieve the grades I need to study further.
Thank you,
Auzair

Mr Gray is a great English teacher and offer me a lot of past papers to practice on. If you need additional lessons, he always tries to make it happen. Thanks Mr Gray

Patrick has been tutoring my son for GCSE English and English Literature, and we have been extremely pleased with the progress he has made. Patrick is very knowledgeable, experienced, and explains concepts clearly in a way that is easy to understand.

One of the biggest improvements has been my son’s essay writing. Patrick taught him how to properly structure essays, analyse texts effectively, and develop stronger arguments. He also helped expand his vocabulary and improve his overall writing style.

Most importantly, my son has gained a lot of confidence since attending lessons with Patrick. He now approaches English with a much more positive attitude and feels far more prepared for his GCSE exams. I would highly recommend Patrick to any parent looking for a supportive, professional, and effective English tutor.

My son's settled really well with Patrick and worked hard due to the ways Patrick teaches. He gained confidence and thrived really well with English Literature. He also enjoyed the subject. I will recommend Patrick to anyone needing tutoring for English Literature.

I highly recommend this tutor who also taught my daughter my her GCSE and A-level English Literature and Language in which she achieved 9’s and A’s.

He is currently teaching my son, who is in Year 10, and we’ve already seen a noticeable improvement in his confidence and understanding of English. My son’s target grades are 9’s and I am confident with Patrick’s support he will achieve these grades.

The lessons are clear, engaging, and well structured, and complex ideas are explained in a way that makes them easy to understand. My son also thinks Patrick is a really good tutor and genuinely enjoys the sessions. Patrick is also very flexible and accommodating with scheduling, and is always happy to work alongside school feedback to support my son’s progress.

A professional, reliable, and excellent tutor who clearly cares about his students’ development.

Patrick helped my son prepare for his English Literature and Language GCSEs. He was extremely professional and attentive, always taking the time to understand my son’s needs and learning style. What makes Patrick particularly trustworthy is his personalised approach: he tailors his teaching methods and exercises to suit the goals and abilities of the student. This thoughtful, student-centred approach builds both confidence and results. I highly recommend Patrick as a tutor.

Patrick is an excellent and highly competent English teacher. His unique painstaking and friendly but firm approach has resulted in my two sons that have passed through him got top grades and assisted them to graduate as a Medical Doctor and Lawyer. My remaining two daughters he is handling currently have tremendously improved in both their GCSE and A/L programs. I therefore recommend him for all parents and guardians that are interested in their children having great grades in English language and Literature both at GCSE and Advanced levels.

We came to know Patrick through his work with our younger daughter. Unlike her elder sister who is a natural bookworm, she had never seen herself as a strong reader. But under Patrick’s guidance, everything changed. She excelled in her final exams and grew in confidence and clarity of expression.

She is now nearing the end of her law degree and is often asked to help with important documents, letters, and content. Her writing and communication skills have become a real strength, and it all began with Patrick’s teaching.

Patrick is more than a tutor. He is a mentor who lays lasting foundations. We recommend him wholeheartedly to the Superprof community.

Patrick has been an exceptional English tutor to both of my children over the years, and I cannot speak highly enough of the impact he has had on their academic success. Through his patient, engaging, and highly knowledgeable approach, he has helped them develop a strong command of both English Language and English Literature.

Thanks to Patrick’s dedication and expertise, both of my children have achieved outstanding results and, more importantly, gained a deep appreciation for the subject. His ability to tailor lessons to each child's individual learning style and to inspire confidence in their abilities has been truly commendable.

Patrick tutored my son in GCSE English Literature over a period of 8 weeks, and the results were fantastic. When they started, my son lacked confidence and was struggling to structure his essays effectively. Patrick quickly identified the areas that needed improvement and tailored each session to target them. His clear explanations, encouragement, and structured approach made a huge difference. Thanks to Patrick's support, my son achieved a Grade 7 – a result we are really proud of. I would highly recommend Patrick to any parent looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and effective English tutor.
