My name is Amelia Carruthers – an expert academic tutor and professional copywriter, working in Warwickshire and London. I have worked with many clients from large corporations to individual students, helping businesses and people learn, grow and communicate.
RELAXED INSPIRING LESSONS
I am passionate about the study of English, History and Philosophy – and love sharing this enthusiasm and curiosity with my students. I offer online lessons (via zoom), as well as face-to-face classes, for anyone from adult learners looking to improve their English skills to 11+, GCSE and A Level exam preparation. I have helped students across Warwickshire, London and beyond achieve their academic goals – and enjoy every moment.
ENGAGING INFORMATIVE WRITING
I love creating engaging, informative blog and website copy that will keep your readers hooked. From a publishing and marketing background, I specialise in writing for cultural enterprises, although recent projects have included marketing for mobile planetariums, financial reporting on “Tap to Donate”, kitchen design trends and fashion advice. I am always open to new challenges, so get in contact to discuss any projects.
