Hello, I’m Amelia Carruthers. I offer one-to-one online tuition in English, History and Philosophy, alongside professional copywriting and editorial support.

Whether I’m helping a student untangle a difficult essay or helping an organisation find the right words, my approach is much the same: listen carefully, understand what matters and make the next step clearer.

Based in Stratford-upon-Avon, I work with clients across Warwickshire, London, the wider UK and beyond.

Online lessons

Calm, purposeful one-to-one tuition for GCSE and A Level students. Subjects include English, History and Philosophy.

I help students understand difficult ideas, strengthen their writing and approach examinations with greater confidence. Lessons are shaped around the individual, from students rebuilding the fundamentals to high achievers aiming for the very top grades.

I have particular experience supporting autistic, ADHD and dyslexic students, as well as those affected by anxiety or low confidence.

Writing and copywriting

Clear, engaging writing for organisations with something worthwhile to say.

My professional background spans publishing, communications and digital marketing, including work with Oxford University Press and the Society of Antiquaries of London.

Today, I write and edit blog posts, website copy, educational resources and longer-form content.

I particularly enjoy taking a complicated subject, finding the thread that matters and turning it into writing that’s accurate, interesting and genuinely useful.

Copy that’s unmistakably you. Only clearer.

A little about me

I hold a First Class MA in History and Philosophy from the University of St Andrews and an M.Phil. in Modern History from the University of Bristol.

My wider career has taken me through academic research, publishing, heritage, communications and digital marketing. Throughout it all, the connecting thread has been a love of ideas and of finding the clearest, most interesting way to communicate them.

I founded AC Studies in 2018 and have since worked with students and writing clients with very different personalities, challenges and ambitions.

I am friendly, calm and encouraging, but I also take the work seriously. Whether we are preparing for an examination or developing an important piece of content, I want every session or project to have a clear purpose and leave you with something genuinely useful.
