Stronger writing, one paragraph at a time.
"My kid can do math, but freezes when there's an essay due." We hear that almost every week. Good English tutoring isn't about correcting comma splices — it's about teaching the underlying moves: claim, evidence, analysis, transition. Once those are visible, every essay gets easier.
Our North Vancouver English tutors are English majors and humanities students at UBC and other top universities. Lessons start with whatever's due: an essay outline, a literary analysis, a reading response, a personal narrative for the BC English exam. We work on it together, the right way — not just spell-check it.
For families preparing for senior English exams (BC Provincials, AP English, university entrance writing), we run structured exam-prep tracks using our Keats Booklets.
English help that unlocks confidence.
Six things every Keats English student gets — from day one.
English-major tutors
Trained at UBC and other top universities. Tutors who have written, defended, and graded essays themselves — not generalists.
Essay structure first
We teach the visible moves of a strong paragraph: claim, evidence, analysis, link. Once these are clear, the rest is craft.
Texts they're actually reading
Lessons build around the novel, poem, or play your child has been assigned — Hamlet, Macbeth, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Crucible.
Real feedback on real work
We mark and walk through your child's actual essays — not just hand them generic worksheets.
BC ELA-aligned
English Language Arts 8–12, BC Literary Studies, Composition 12, AP English — we know each course's exam style.
Keats Booklets included
Structured writing booklets with sentence patterns, transitions, and exam-style essay prompts.
