About Ellen

I am a professional freelance artist and have been a tutor for roughly 4 years. I work with many different mediums including installation, sculpture, moving image, photography, performance, movement, and drawing. I previously studied English Literature at the University of Bristol and have just completed my postgraduate studies in Fine Art at the Glasgow School of Art. Primarily, I am invested in accessible, alternative, and expressive education. I am patient, smiley, open, and non-judgmental; I aim to create a space where students feel comfortable.

About the lesson

For about 3 years, I have tutored a range of students from ages 8 up to 18. As a practising artist I can also offer tutoring sessions in creative subjects. I have experience as a SEN teaching assistant and in tutoring students with learning difficulties or special educational needs. As such I am aware of the difficulties that some students or parents can face with the school learning structure; I aim to create a bridge between the expectations from the school and the student’s educational needs. I am familiar with a range of curriculums, different exam procedures, and varied approaches to learning. Typically, I run 1-hour lessons but I like to cater for each student and can teach for up to 2 hours. Throughout my tutoring career I have ensured that I maintain a gentle, dedicated, patient, adaptable, open, and upbeat approach.

I understand that opting for tuition can be a step towards meeting your child’s educational needs. I hope that I can help to put a reliable structure in place so that it is easier for your child to learn and go through assessments. My approach is very directed towards building confidence and interest in the subject rather than directly aiming towards achieving high grades. I do, however, feel that the two go hand in hand. I also am aware that a curriculum is necessary to a student’s learning so will always ensure that I incorporate that within my teaching. I see 1 to 1 tutoring as a fairly mutual relationship; I want the student to feel that they can be honest with me and in turn I will also be honest where appropriate. I want to create a learning environment that reduces any struggle, anxiety, or frustration so that your child can excel.
