Information about Ellen
I am an experienced English Teacher currently working at an `Outstanding` Secondary School in Birmingham. I teach English across Key stages 3 and 4 (GCSE level). I am, however, available for tuition at key stage 2 also as I have previously taught in primary schools.
I have also previously worked exclusively as an intervention specialist with year 10 and 11 students requiring urgent exam/coursework intervention, particularly those students that are C/D borderline candidates in order to secure their minimum `C` grade.
I pride myself on my ability to understand individual learning needs and develop strong rapports with students so that they may feel comfortable and confident enough to learn and maximise their full potential.
If you have any queries, please don`t hesitate to contact me.
Thank you,
Ellen
Availability: Evenings and weekends
Willing to travel: 5 miles
Experience: I hold a First Class Honours degree in Psychology from Cardiff University. This supports my ability to work with young people of varying levels of ability and demeanour with success from gifted and talented to those with special educational needs. Or even those who just need an extra push in the right direction.
UK awarded QTS as Teacher of English, grade 1 (Qualified as `Outstanding`).
I have worked in a variety of educational facilities with students of all cultural backgrounds and capabilities. My enthusiasm to ensure student progression is what qualifies me as a highly successful tutor and teacher of English.
I have DBS certification. I am a driver so I am happy to come to you.

Ellen has been a great tutor. She is very helpful and provides an excellent level of support to my daughter in her build-up to GCSE English.

Ellen has been teaching my son for almost a year now. In my opinion she is a brilliant teacher. My son was averaging a level 5a when Ellen began tutoring him. Within a term his level dramatically increased from 5a to a 7c. My son is now very confident in his English lessons and is always achieving top marks. This would not have been possible without Ellen.

Stopped tutoring without any notice and very bad response. Not reliable !!

Ellen has recently began tutoring my son. Its early days, however, she has good subject knowledge and is able to explain thoroughly.

Ellen has been tutoring my daughter (13) for a few weeks now.
She has a good connection with my daughter already, and has a lovely easy going manner of communicating that works well to get the message across. My daughter has started to think more carefully about her English work and apply the skills Ellen is trying to teach her.
