Hello! I'm Haydn.  

I graduated with both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in English Literature from the University of Leeds. Over the past 5 years, I've had the pleasure of tutoring on platforms such as MyTutor. Each session has taught me something new, not just about the subjects I teach, but about the diverse ways each student approaches them.

To me, tutoring is as much about understanding the person as it is about the subject. Building a rapport is essential. It's important to me that my students see our sessions as a safe space where they can be open about their challenges, interests, and goals.

Here's what I bring to the table:

- Genuine Interest: I'm genuinely passionate about literature, language, and Media Studies. It's more than just a job to me; it's what I love. I aim to share that passion in a way that's relatable and engaging for you.

- Relevance: We'll go beyond the texts. I want you to see the relevance of what we study, how it connects to the world around us, and even our own lives.

- Beyond Academics: While I'm here to help you improve academically, I also hope our sessions foster a genuine interest in the subject matter. 

If you're looking for a tutor who's approachable, invested, and keen to make learning relatable, I'd love to help. Let's work together towards your goals.

About my sessions

Personalised Approach: No two students are alike. That’s why I curate lessons tailored to your unique needs. I create extensive documents for every student I teach which serve as great revision resources.

Deep Dive Analysis: We'll get hands-on with the material, from dissecting specific excerpts to broad thematic analyses. Through a blend of structured guidance and dynamic discussions, you'll uncover layers you never knew existed.

Feedback & Growth: My commitment doesn’t end when the lesson does. I provide targeted feedback and exercises to refine your writing and analytical prowess. With a sharp eye on progress, we'll work together to elevate your skills session by session.

Your Success, My Blueprint: Each lesson is a result of meticulous preparation, ensuring every minute counts. I roughly spent an hour preparing for any given lesson, this varies dependant on what I am teaching, but I like to prepare for any possible questions and be on standby for any difficulties a student may encounter with the content. Your goal is my goal.

Haydn is quite frankly exceptional. I have not come across another English teacher with his skills, knowledge, empathy and patience. My son needed a lot of help and I am eternally grateful for the help and attention provided by Haydn in all aspects of language and literature. Exceptional.

Haydn has been a great tutor for my son Alex leading up to his GCSEs. He is very efficient, flexible, and friendly. They have been working together from September 2023 to May 2024. My son is already feeling more confident with his English exam answers and has greatly improved his understanding of areas he struggled with. Haydn is very engaging and tries to vary each lesson. The feedback received is also brilliant. Thank you for all your help. I would without a doubt recommend Haydn to other parents and young adults struggling with school and exam pressure.

Haydn is such an amazing A level English tutor, with a wealth of knowledge! I have been so inspired every single lesson and he has helped me to re find my love of English Literature... I could not recommend a tutor more, I have seen my grades rise from a B to an A* since we started lessons around 2 months ago. I am now so confident about my a levels after these sessions, I would 100% recommend that you choose Haydn to be your tutor!
