About Ellie
Hi there,
My name is Ellie, and I'm a creative writer and poet. I offer lessons to help you enjoy literacy and work on any areas that you might be struggling with. I want to get to know you and provide activities that are fun and engaging for you.
My lessons can be based on reading and spelling to help you get higher marks and be able to read easier. I can also give you lessons on creative writing where we can write stories, poems or articles about things that are important to you. We can work together to make your reading and writing extra special!

I usually work with children in primary school, using their own strengths and interests to develop their enjoyment of English and literacy. I'm also able to offer sessions to older children and adults. I have a degree in Psychology with Cognitive Neuroscience and specialise in child development and learning disabilities. As a poet and creative writer, I have led writing workshops based on self expression and understanding language.
Lessons are typically 1-2 hours and are specifically designed for the student's needs at that time, including:
Phonetics, speech and language, reading and spelling lessons to support literacy. Lessons will be personalised to the student's interests and particular needs.
Lessons on literature and creative writing to develop student's engagement with English and literacy. I specialise in poetry to help students express themselves and explore their emotions as well as the world around them, while developing their understanding of language. I can also offer sessions on story writing and literature comprehension.
I have an enhanced DBS check and experience working with a range of children and young people with additional needs and challenging behaviour.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Ellie is really creative and always interested in my ideas. She always shows great enthusiasm and is a wonderful teacher, helping me develop my creative writing skills and giving me the confidence to put pen to paper. Her continued kindness and keenness is such a delight to work with and I fully enjoy my time spent learning from her, sharing my work, and developing my skills.
Ellie is a tremendously talented writer, who's aptitude for writing covers a vast array of styles from script-writing to poetry. A highly creative mind, her passion is infectious to those around her, as she looks to bolster others with her energy. As an ex-president of Leicester University Theatre, not only have I seen Ellie step up to the plate when it came to her duties towards the committee and the high professionalism she displayed directing both cast and crew over several months, Ellie has been lauded by her peers with accolades relating to her exceptional talent at writing sort form dramatic pieces. Having been given the pleasure of reading her poetry and watching her perform, as well as read through various writings she has show me showing a exceptionally aptitude for English.
Too modest to applaud her own achievements, it is my belief that for those wishing to develop their English skills further, be that with a focus on literature or language, I could not suggest anyone more enthusiastic and talented as a tutor as Ellie herself. It is with this recommendation that I would highly advise consulting with Ellie so that she may pass her talents onto those wishing to improve in these areas, as I believe you will struggle to find another with such dedication, and articulated finesse.See more recommendations
