English teacher (Phonics, primary, secondary and GCSE English Language, 11+, SATs preparation)

Alena provided outstanding 11+ tutoring for my daughter Rosie. During an intensive pre 11+ period she provided Rosie with the best preparation possible. A great communicator, she was able to make Rosie’s difficult topics more understandable and demystified elements of the exam. Rosie was successful at her 11+ and I believe Alena’s expert tutoring made a significant contribution. I would definitely use Alena again and whole heartedly recommend her to anyone.

Alena is a wonderful tutor! She helped me a lot, especially with preparing my Master’s dissertation. She taught me how to analyse and write essays, develop critical thinking, and improve my vocabulary and grammar - all through my own effort. I successfully passed and now apply these professional writing and thinking skills in my work. I’m very grateful and look back on that time with warmth and happiness. Highly recommend!

From the moment I started working with her, she provided clear, insightful guidance on how to critically analyse article and formulate well-structured nursing essays. She tailored the sessions to my own needs and understanding and I always achieved my learning outcomes. She is patient and very flexible in teaching style

Alena helped my daughter with her business A level course.
She was very flexible and accommodating with dates and times and used to prepare very well the lessons having a good plan to cover all the course content.

Great teacher, very patient and knowledgeable. Alena helped me to structure my assignment

I had the pleasure of working with Alena as my acdemic tutor for 3 years during my time at univeristy. As an international student with no prior experience in academic writing, I found her guidance invaluable. From the beginning, Alena provided structured and consistent support.She never did the work for me but instead she facilitated my learning by asking the right guestions and offered constructive feedback. Her support played a significant role in my academic success and I am proud to say I graduated with honors. I have also observed Alena teaching small group of children and she brought the best out of them through carefully adapted questioning. She has always been proffesional , positive and cheerful.
