Testimonials
From the time, I saw the six text type video by Taughtly, I knew Sarah is a knowledgeable and experienced teacher! What we discovered after signing up, was that she adapts to the students learning style and engages the student well, helping build comfort and confidence around the language. I am thankful to her for helping my son do well in his FLE to reach a high A in the IGCSE.
My daughter enjoyed every single class and was actually sad when the class ended. Very good feedback for each homework and highly valuable suggestions for each paper.
Great energy and environment in class and always made me feel welcome! Gave me a spark for writing I didn’t think was possible, and gave me consistent practice and tips that have left me more than prepared for my exams!
Sarah’s a lovely human being and every English student should get to have a teacher like her once.

Grade 9 Macbeth Essay on Ambition – IGCSE English Literature Example
William Shakespeare’s Macbeth (1606) is a play that, at its very core, warns of the dangers of unchecked ambition and accepting your God-given role in the Great Chain of Being. Functioning as a didactic force of royalist propaganda, Shakespeare aimed to ingratiate himself with the newly crowned King James I by discouraging attempted acts of regicide following the Gunpowder Plot.

Poetry Comparison Essay for IGCSE English Literature (4ET1)
In Prayer Before Birth and The Tyger, both poets explore fears of the depths of humanity’s evil. While The Tyger questions a non-responsive Christian God how he could have created both a fearful predator such as a tiger, in Prayer Before Birth, the speaker is far more concerned with the fear that society will rob them of their innocence and reshape them into an instrument of violence, highlighting a deeper terror of losing one’s humanity.
