A considered recommendation
English difficulties are not always obvious from a single mark. A student may understand a text but struggle to express an interpretation, or write fluently without addressing the assessment criteria closely enough.
We ask whether support is needed for Language, Literature or broader literacy, along with the curriculum, level, texts being studied and current priorities.
We consider whether the educator’s experience matches the programme, level and subject requested.
Submitted qualifications, certification and identity information are reviewed as part of our process.
Recommendations take account of location, online or in-person preference and schedule.
You can speak to a real person rather than searching through an open public directory.
