Not scared.
Prepared.

My seven step guide to unlocking Unseen Poetry will raise your grades (and lower your stress levels) ...

Did you know, humans are biologically programmed to fear 'the unseen'? That's why so many of us are afraid of the dark!

And if you're a GCSE or A Level English Literature student, you might be worrying about your Unseen Poetry unit.

You're not alone.

I've been teaching since 2013: students usually find Unseen Poetry as daunting as Shakespeare. Until I help them face whatever poems come up with confidence and a plan to unlock the unseen, save unneeded stress, and improve their grades!

    🌱 On the other hand, Abel is slightly embarrassed about the quality of his chillies this year. There's always 2025.

    - OUR MANIFESTO -

    "We won't be told that English is 'boring'. Or that we're not smart enough, or rich enough, or that somehow Shakespeare, poetry, and English isn't for people like us. Whatever that means. We definitely won't be told it's in another language.

    Who are 'they' to tell us that the best written art doesn't belong to us?

    We won't 'stay in our lane'.

    English gets more important day by day. In a 'post-truth' age, we need to be able to communicate clearly, and persuasively; it's essential we understand what, how, and why people are communicating with us. We know that literature is a key way of understanding the world around us, who we are, and how we fit into that wider world.

    We are 'upstarts' ..."
