Hi, I'm Mandy, founder of Mandy’s Tuition.

I am a mum of 2, qualified English teacher and GCSE English Language examiner. I have spent 14 years teaching secondary English, including 6 years as a Subject Lead. My passion is helping students develop the confidence, strategies and skills they need to succeed in English.

I created this guide because creative writing carries a significant number of marks in GCSE English Language, yet many students are never shown practical structural techniques they can apply immediately.

This resource gives students a simple starting point they can use straight away to write with greater confidence and control.
