About Karishma

I have recently graduated from a master's in English at Cambridge University and have ample experience in teaching: 4 years as a private tutor in English Literature/Language A-levels and GCSE, a year teaching English to teenage refugees and, most recently, two months teaching students in preparation for their ICS exams at a school in India.

Teaching affords me the opportunity to share literature with the compelling quality it deserves, engendering lifelong appreciation for it in my tutees. A particularly memorable moment was showing a student David Tenant's rendition of the "To be or not to be" soliloquy in 'Hamlet' (he ignited her interest in Shakespeare!)

As well as making lessons engaging, I take care to teach with patience and will create a comfortable environment. It is important to me that even my most introverted students are able to voice their ideas and engage in discussion. I do understand the mechanics of the syllabus but will take a student far beyond it, in both literary appreciation and writing ability. Do get in touch if you have any queries.
