About Saskia
I am a recently graduated academic, with a BA (Hons) in English and Theatre, and an MA in Theatre and Performance. I love to teach, and my greatest passion is English literature, particularly showing students that Shakespeare does not have to be drab!
In my spare time I enjoy singing, watching formula one, and playing board games.

My lessons are tailored to suit your particular subject area.
With GCSE students I like to work through the exam papers and break each section down into chunks, and make the exam easy and accessible by explaining exactly what the paper is asking!
I also create line-by-line breakdowns of poetry and Shakespearean verse to help you understand the topic and interpretation, and teach you how to approach future pieces of work yourself. I work with each student on a completely individual basis, providing comprehensive feedback and setting homework to their request.
After ten weekly sessions, one of my students was able to achieve 2 and 3 grades higher than their mock exam results.
Another achieved distinctions in their Access to HE course assessments.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by students with Saskia.
Perfect! Saskia is a perfect tutor. Her incredibly deep knowledge of both Shakespeare and contemporary drama saved me and helped me get distinctions. I can thoroughly recommend her!
Perfect! I have enrolled on a 12 week bespoke Shakespeare performance programme with Saskia, and then we plan to do a close read of Henry V.
It's clear that Saskia is an established scholar in Shakespeare, and her down-to-earth personality affords her a very approachable manner in her style of teaching.
In addition, her evident passion for her subject, helps me gain a deeper understanding of the coursework, and achieve my goal of performing Shakespeare plays.
She always welcomes questions, and is very thorough in her explanations, therefore I highly recommend Saskia as a Tutor.Perfect! Following the second lesson my daughter said to me: I wish she came to teach in my school...
