Unable to commence due Ellie’s personal issues our sessions were cancelled . She was an excellent communicator , sounded competent but it did not happen for us .
From ali
Ellie was instrumental in building and strengthening my son's foundations in Micro Economics. He thoroughly enjoyed the engagement and teaching style and scored well in his exams. Her ownership and commitment were very impressive. I thank my stars that I was able to spot Ellie's profile and may request her for more help as my son progresses to college.
From Shewan
Ellie is very organised and always comes prepared. She is able to identify where the gaps are and how to bridge them. My daughter is very happy with the lessons and the progress that she is making. I highly recommend Ellie.
From Bina
Ellie is a very easy going & punctual. She is very good in explaining and goes through topics in detail, which my son finds it extremely helpful. She gives feedback after lessons and which is very helpful as a parent. I would strongly recommend her. Thank you Ellie.
From Helen
Ellie was very flexible, patient and helpful, very personable, my son has ADHD and can find things overwhelming and tricky, he worked well with Ellie and found her a great help.
From David
Ellie was excellent at helping Holly with her A level Economics when she was struggling. We haven't had her grades yet but hoping that with Ellie's help she has done enough to get her into university. Ellie was great with Holly visiting her house until lockdown but carried on online to great effect. I would recommend Ellie to other A level students. As well as academically supportive she treated Holly as an adult which helped with her confidence.
From Joanne
Excellent tutor. Really knows her subject and how to teach. Very pleased to have found her.
From Angela
Already, after only three lessons, my daughters understanding and confidence in writing a 25 marker for A level economics has increased considerably. Ellie is happy to follow my daughters lead on what she needs help in and quickly identifies and tackles the problems. Very knowledgeable and proactive, reads essays my daughter sends to her and makes the lessons a two-way discussion, more like a conversation than a lecture. Can't praise her enough.
From Natasa
Ellie is tutoring Economics A level to my son for a couple of months now. She is very organized and diligent and assigns him work and additional material to go through between lessons. Although they are doing a lot of work together, my son is very excited and motivated and has developed an interest in Economics that he didn't have before. For all these reasons, I consider myself very lucky to have found Ellie and I totally recommend her
From Rebecca
Ellie is lovely! My 18yr old son is currently having Economic revision in the run up to his A Levels with 2 sessions per week. She is communicative, reliable and giving him the confidence he needs in this difficult subject so fingers crossed this will show in his exam results in the summer.
From Linda
Ellie is a fantastic teacher to my daughter who is doing a business A’level. Ellie is very clear on her explanations and knows the spec very well. Very happy we found Ellie- would highly recommend
From Sarah
Ellie has been a fantastic tutor for us, we've heard nothing but good feedback from the students she taught. She's extremely professional and understanding and our regular student was very upset when school commitments meant she had to end her tuition with Ellie, especially since her business grades had increased dramatically since they began regular sessions. She's a pleasure to work with and I can't recommend her highly enough.
From Alison
My daughter, Ellen, had missed 2 modules of her A Level Business course and I approached Ellie to help fill this gap. Ellie was very personable, quick to respond to emails and texts and Ellen felt at ease with her immediately once the online tuition began. It's the first time we have used an online tutor and, if you are thinking about it, go ahead and do it. It worked really well for us. Ellie gave Ellen some homework to do between lessons and is going to give her some work to do once the tuition has finished for Ellen to complete in her own time and which she will mark. Overall, a very positive experience. I have no hesitation in recommending Ellie and we may well use her services again nearer Ellen's final exams.
From Nikki
Ellie has been a fantastic tutor to my son as he approaches his final A level business exams. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the course content and has really helped my son with ways in which to structure his written work. I have seen his confidence grow since receiving her tuition. I would absolutely recommend Ellie.
From David
Ellie has been an excellent A level Economics tutor for our son and has given him a significant boost of confidence in the subject material going into end of year exams. Thanks very much Ellie
From Olivia
Ellie is a friendly tutor who's teaching style is clear and concise. She has helped me with improving my exam technique as well as consistently testing my knowledge.
Ellie also sets me homework and gives feedback which helps me improve further on how to tackle certain exam questions. Ellie has played a big part in raising my confidence for my Economics exam and I would highly recommend her.
From Fiona
My son has been having fortnightly sessions with Ellie for a few months. During this time, Ellie has supported his increase in confidence towards his maths learning. His basic maths skills have improved as well as his approach to more complex problems. This was highlighted at a recent parents evening, of which my husband and I are both thrilled about!
From Amanda
Ellie has been really helpful in helping me expand my economics learning. I was very unconfident with my economics when I first came to Ellie, but her easy to understand explanations and revision techniques have really helped me with my understanding. I would recommend Ellie to anyone looking for an economics tutor!
From Zainah
Excellent teacher who managed to improve my son’s grades and confidence in economics greatly. She always has great advice on how to tailor essays to gain the highest marks and thus the best grades. Very grateful to have had her.
From Ann
Only 2 sessions in but seems organised and focused - sets homework and motivational which is what is needed at the moment !
From Jennifer
Great tutor! Ellie has been tutoring me for a few months now and have expanded my knowledge through explaining concepts that I fail to understand in class. On top of that, she teaches you how to answer exam questions and provide good feedback on it which would be essential for when it comes to doing my A2 exams in the summer.
From Lena
Great tutor, good at explaining and motivating my son to work hard and try his best. Good planning for each tutorial session and helping him with essay writing exam techniques.
From Sarah
My son has been seeing Ellie for a few weeks and says that she is really helping him. He now seems to be enjoying Business Studies as he has gained confidence with the extra tuition.
From Jeremy
Ellie was an amazing tutor for our son Jamie. With her help he raised his Economics grade from a weak B at AS to grade A at A level. She explains concepts really well, is happy to go over something more than once and teach at the student's pace. She is always welcoming and friendly. She set homework and used the weekly sessions to review this and correct mistakes and misunderstandings. We were completely satisfied with Ellie's tutoring and would recommend her totally.
From Fiona
We were really happy with the tutoring Eleanor received and delighted with the B grade she achieved in her A level.
From Nina
A fantastic tutor! Ellie helped me go from a D grade at AS to an A grade at A2. She was really great in helping me feel confident in my knowledge and also exam technique before going into my exams.
From Nathan
Ellie is an excellent tutor and was able to make topics that I had once not understood extremely clear. Without Ellie I would have not been able to achieve the grade that I did in Business Studies. I improved dramatically in all the business modules that I retook. I am really happy with the help that Ellie gave me and would strongly advise anyone that is looking for a tutor to choose Ellie, as with hard work she can almost guarantee success! (She's also really nice and easy to get along with.)
From Jamie
Ellie started tutoring Jamie after he achieved a D in Economics at AS level. He has just completed his A levels and achieved a B grade and was not far off an A. I don't think this would have been possible without Ellie's help. Within a few weeks of working with her he was starting to grasp concepts which had previously not made sense to him. Ellie's lessons were well structured and they worked through numerous past papers. She was always willing to try and accommodate us if there was a clash. I would recommend Ellie to anyone seeking help with their Economics. She was outstanding. Thank you Ellie.
From Claire
My son James has found Ellie to be supportive and helpful and feels that she is helping him to improve his essay writing.
Many thanks
Thank you, Claire! Was very pleased to hear that both Zoe and James achieved A's in their economics exams!
From Clara
I had tutoring with Ellie for the three or so months leading up to my As exams. She helped me feel confident in my ability as well as helping me to target and improve areas such as my exam technique, which I sometimes struggled with on larger and more complicated questions. She had all the resources needed to help me with both my business and economics exams, and set some work for me to do such as past papers, which really helped me to learn to apply the theories Ellie had taught me during our sessions. Overall I thought she was a great tutor and would recommend her to anyone looking to perfect their economics and business skills.
From Elaine
My son has had a couple of lessons with Ellie now and has found them excellent. She is organised and explains the subject well.
From Iwona
Ellie has been extremely helpful over the past few months. I feel more confident in the subject of economics then i did before i started. By covering each unit thoroughly and practicing exam questions i feel prepared for my A2 exams in the summer.
From Simon
Ellie worked extremely well with our son who improved from an E at AS to a B at A2. Infact he was only 2 marks off an A (the mark and remark were identical… shame). Our son constantly remarked how well Ellie explained difficult theories and she raised his confidence and enjoyment of Economics. Many thanks.
From Rita
Ellie could no longer tutor at the time and day agreed prior to me purchasing her details. She agreed the day and then due to other commitments she was unable to fulfill the tutoring. I cannot rate Ellie as a tutor as she never taught my son. The rating is based on her not being able to fulfill the agreed tutoring day.
Unfortunately due to a family emergency I had to reschedule the agreed timing with Rita however it did not work with her. As there is no other time we could agree on I believed the best solution was to allocate a different tutor who could be more flexible with timings.
From Murtaza
First meeting went very well
From Edward
Extremely helpful. Ellie goes into lots of depth whilst also being able to simplify complicated matters making it easy to understand the course. Couldn't have asked for a better economics tutor
From Anita
Our daughter (and ourselves) found Ellie to be very friendly, reliable, organised and focused on our daughter's strengths and weakness. Ellie was proactive in researching and providing extra resources to assist her with continued understanding. Ellie also delivered relevant homework each week. Overall, we would not hesitate to recommend Ellie going forward and we wish her good luck in her endeavours.
From Lesley
She was very accommodating. There was no trouble finding time to get together with my son over Christmas and the help he received he felt was very useful. She took time to explain things thouroughly and produced papers for him to complete at home. They then went over them together to see where he was right and where he could have gained those elusive extra marks. Well done Ellie and thank you!
Dear Lesley Thank you so much for such kind words I am very pleased to hear Dirk found our lessons useful and you know where to find me should you need any help in the future! Wishing you the best in 2015!
Kindest regards, Ellie
From Karen
My daughter has been tutored by Ellie a few weeks now, and we have been very pleased. She helps Lucy with Homework and is very knowledgeable of the A2 syllabus for Edexcel Economics. She has encouraged Lucy in every aspect of Economics. Ellie has also set Lucy extra homework which I know will pay off in the long run! I cannot recommend Ellie highly enough. Thank you.
From Jan
My daughter has only just started with Ellie but she is an approachable, engaging tutor who is providing a positive building block and my daughter is gaining the confidence needed in her own ability to hopefully succeed. Thank you Ellie. Jan
From Jack
She's fantastic… proud to have her as a tutor. 100% helpful in my academic work. She makes me understand the concept much more better!
From Aliya
We are very happy with Ellie! She always listens and understands what student really need. I would deferentially recommend her to everyone!
