Emma McEnroe, B.Ed.

I'm a qualified primary teacher with over eight years of experience, and English is now my sole focus. I hold a Bachelor of Education from Dublin City University, majoring in English Literature. I've taught in schools across Dublin and London before moving to online tuition.

I specialise in 11+ preparation, SATs support and helping children who need extra confidence with reading and writing. My lessons are structured, research-informed and built around each child's individual needs and interests.

What Parents Say

“From my son's experience, he said Emma is the best tutor. He passed his Sutton stage 2 for Wilson's, Wallington and Sutton grammar schools. Also Tiffin stage 1, thanks to her lessons on comprehension and creative writing. My son said she is kind and will explain any questions deeply. She does fun exercises that make you think of writing ideas quickly. I would really recommend this tutor as I can see great improvement in my son.”

Wijittra11+ Parent

“Emma is an outstanding and highly professional English teacher, and we couldn't be happier with the results she has achieved with our daughter. Over the past 9 months of 1:1 lessons, Emma has created such an engaging, patient, and positive learning atmosphere. Her enthusiasm for teaching truly shines through in every session. When we first started, Clairisse needed quite a bit of extra help with her writing and comprehension. Thanks to Emma's targeted guidance, we saw an incredible leap in her progress over the last 3-4 months before her exam - so much so that she successfully passed both Stage 1 and Stage 2 of the Sutton 11+ exams! I would highly recommend Emma to absolutely anyone looking to help their child improve in English.”

Iris11+ Parent

“Emma is a good teacher and a real encouragement to whom she teaches. My son says during his 11+ preparation, Emma makes the lessons fun with a Baamboozle and she is very patient. When he gets any questions wrong, Emma would help him understand the fundamentals. With no doubt, my son was blessed to have Emma for his 11+ journey and my son has chosen to qualify Emma with these 5 words:
Patient
Humorous
Encouraging
Highly strategic
Helpful”
