About Elie
I am a year 13 A Level student studying Spanish, German and Religious Studies. In my GCSEs I was awarded grade 9s in all of these subjects, and I am currently working towards my final A Level exams, with plans to go to Edinburgh University to study German and International Relations. My predicted A Level grades are A*, A, A. I also have a current DBS check.
As a tutor, my strengths include being patient, clear and understanding, as well as disciplined and determined. I have lots of resources prepared to teach these subjects to (I)GCSE students of all abilities, in addition to having in depth experience working with children and other teenagers. Some of my experience includes volunteering at subject ‘clinics’ in my school, where I helped younger pupils who were struggling with these subjects. As well as this, I led summer camps for teenagers where I organised events and outdoor activities for them to develop valuable life skills, like perseverance and teamwork. When I was doing my GCSEs, I also had tutoring in other subjects so I have a good understanding of what students are looking for in these sessions and the most effective methods to help pupils progress.
I have every confidence that my tutoring will provide the ideal support for any student to achieve their fullest potential in these subjects and I look forward to learning together. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out!

I begin by assessing the ability level of each student through exam style questions, quizzes and discussion with the pupil about which topic areas they feel need the most improvement. This allows me to tailor the sessions to the strengths and weaknesses of the individual. As well as this, I make sure that all material and skills covered are directly relevant to whichever exam board the pupil’s course is set by.
My sessions are a mixture of breaking down and speaking through concepts, doing practice exercises to consolidate understanding, and practising exam skills / exam style questions. In languages, my sessions cover all skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing.
I am available for pupils to contact me over the phone or via text message at any point, so it is not necessary to wait until our next session to ask any questions.
We begin each session by setting out our objectives and end with a summary of what we have learnt, 3 things the pupil did well with and 3 targets to improve upon next time.
I prepare my sessions in advance, so I always come with a lesson plan and resources, however this is flexible and open to the student’s requests on what they want to cover. For example, this could be going over some school work they found tricky. With regard to homework, I understand that pupils are often set lots from school, so I do not aim to give them more homework. However, if the pupil or family would like me to set some extra work to hone in on specific skills or topics, I am happy to do so and go through it together in the following session.
Ultimately, my tutoring is based on 3 principles:
1. No question is too silly - always ask if you’re not sure.
2. Mistakes are good because we can learn from them.
3. Believe in yourself!

Elie is an excellent communicator, listener and teacher. She is passionate about languages and a gifted linguist ( grade 9 Spanish and German GCSEs and predicted As at A level).
She has a current DBS check from her work with young children.As Elie's mother it has been my pleasure to watch her thrive in modern languages as well latin throughout her education. She has done very well for herself and I am proud to see her go on to help other do as well as she has in their Exams in Spanish and German
Elie is wonderful and intelligent young women who has thrived in the school environment successfully managing a strong handle on both Spanish and German at a high level. She has done this with a smile on her face and a kind attitude towards her peers for as long as I've known her.
Elie was a fellow student of mine at school and she has gone on to do a level German and Spanish having achieved A*s in them both at GCSE. She helped me with lengthy essays and revision as exams got closer and I believe she genuinely helped me improve my grades. She not only helped me better learn Spanish and German but also the exam system whilst simultaneously encouraging me to stay motivated throughout my time at school and home.
Elie is a brilliant languages student! I go to the same school as her and can confirm that she learns both German and Spanish, performing to a very high level! With brilliant grades and a resilient attitude, she would be a great tutor who brings out the best in her students.
