Seeking an English Lit A Level tutor to focus on Othello

[pjal]

Very specific I know! For our daughter who has just finished Year I2. There are many tutors advertising but would really like recommendations. I was going to post on the Tutoring sub board but there appears to be very little traffic there. Feel free to call or text 07342 059948 

Many thanks

One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?

Why don’t you speak to head of English at private schools? Might be able to recommend a senior student.. pity now summer hols. 

 Was how my friend found a tutor for both their kids - maths and science and English..

They also have some mag covering schools as well

Thanks both for the replies and suggestions. She enjoyed studying the play but fell short in her mock and we don't have the paper to work out why. She had rotten teaching in her state school on this part of her course and we are trying to make up for it

Silly question, but would it not have been someone at  the school who marked the mock, and if so (rotten teaching notwithstanding) could they not say why she fell short?

I hope you find someone who can help.
