About Elena
Hello there, my name is Elena and I am a fully qualified primary teacher with a PGCE in education and a diploma in dyslexia. I have a passion for teaching English and helping young people with specific learning difficulties, but also in helping out pupils who may need a little extra time on acquiring the skills they need in order to complete language tasks. I offer in-person and online options, with some home or possible school placements. We will use a variety of books and games either for online or in-person lessons. I have a lot of resources to make lessons fun and light and to make pupils feel confident and relaxed. Hope to speak to you soon and be of help to you and your child.

Having worked in UK Education for over 20 years, I have acquired the experience to encourage and engage pupils of all abilities in subjects across the primary school curriculum. However, focusing on English Language and my certificate in Dyslexia has enabled me to help and aid pupils to strengthen their language skills. The development of language has a basis in many areas and some children need specific help with sentence structure, grammar and ideas to explore stronger levels of writing based on their feelings and experiences. My focus would be on figurative writing, reading comprehension, addition of new vocabulary, editing skills, exploring authors and the viewpoint of the writer. Comparisons in writing, summarising, plus more. I usually break the lesson down into parts and this helps the pupil to focus more. Please feel free to contact me for more information.

Elena taught my dyslexic son for 4 years, from years 3 - 6. She was kind and gentle and made learning fun. My son always enjoyed his lessons which is a big deal as additional lessons after a full day's school is a hard ask of a child. He made good progress under her tuition, and I'd often find when we were doing homework together a word that he could spell because he was remembering a trick that she'd taught him.
I highly recommend Elena as a tutor. She worked with my daughter during her primary school years and made a big difference in her progress and confidence, especially in English.
Elena is patient, encouraging, and explains things clearly. My daughter always enjoyed her lessons and felt supported.
We’re very grateful for Elena’s help and would gladly recommend her to other families.Elena provides a relaxed and fun teaching environment for children with reading and writing difficulties, and encourages learning through a range of interactive and fun activities tailored to specific needs and abilities of each child. Using these methods, Elena has been able to help many children make great progress with their reading and writing abilities.
Elena has been a wonderful tutor for our child! She brings patience, understanding, and adapts to my child’s individual needs. Her support has made a real difference, not just in our child’s learning but in their confidence too.
I highly recommend her to any parent looking for a dedicated and engaging dyslexia tutor
