Online English Literature Tutor Ella

Ella was honestly the best support during my A-levels. Not only did she provide highly valuable and different insights about the texts I was studying that proved incredibly helpful in exams, she also made the lessons really fun. Ella is an absolute gem of a tutor, making the classes entertaining and more conversational/interactive rather than the passive teaching I was getting at school. She really boosted my confidence and I don’t think I would have got an A* in English without her!

Ella is absolutely outstanding! She is not only brilliant, but her way of communicating material effectively and efficiently is unparalleled. She is the GOLD standard of tutors. Highly recommend her!

"Ella Evans is not only a phenomenal tutor, but a phenomenal human. Considerate, conscientious, motivating, and extremely organised, Ella was instrumental throughout the UK admissions process. Serious yet possessing an incredible sense of humour, Ella was extremely enjoyable to work with. I recommend her to anyone preparing for the ELAT and anyone fascinated by the wonderful world of English Literature".

Ella is simply fantastic. Gushing reviews rarely seem authentic, but in Ella’s case the praise is well placed. Ella has a light, engaging yet challenging way of bringing a subject to life. She will work with you and fine tune her teaching to our specific needs. I think Ella’s main subject for teaching tends to be English, but I can highly recommend her for French. A native teacher would probably encourage a student to learn by ear or by melody, while Ella is able to add another dimension. She understands what it means to learn to love a language. She builds her classes on a strong foundation of grammar and yet “how to learn” also forms an important part to her classes. Listening to French radio, using the language and enjoying the language as something alive and contemporary. We had the quirky situation of my child’s school language being German, but Ella handled this perfectly, leading the class in English, then linking all three languages and enjoying the bridges. It’s a rare thing for a thirteen year old to enjoy having a tutor during his summer holidays. Ella makes it possible. Thank you.

"Got an offer this morning for History and English at St Hugh's. Thanks so much for all of your help with my application, genuinely had no chance without you"

'Ella's enthusiastic approach to teaching Shakespeare definitely brought his writing to life for me. Ella helped me to uncover many hidden meanings in Macbeth that hadn't been covered in class. Moreover, I struggled with how to plan my essays for GCSE English Literature, yet Ella taught me a clear game plan that enabled me to write confidently under time pressure.

Ella helped me to achieve a level 9 in GCSE English Literature and with her action plan, I managed to obtain almost full marks in all of my essays! Thank you Ella!'
