About Elena

Hey there! I’m Elena, a second-year medical student in Australia, originally from NZ. From firsthand experience, I know how challenging English Literature can be. Having tutored 20+ students in the past few years, my tutoring is aimed at offering personalized guidance and support to students. All of my students have improved from B/C grades into A/A*.

I believe that sustainable academic success comes from discovering each student’s unique motivations. That’s why I adapt my teaching approach to suit individual learning styles. Instead of relying on rote memorisation, I focus on building a deep understanding of key themes, context, developing analysis skills and an appreciation for writer's craft. Regular students also receive in-depth essay feedback and personalised test questions.

Lessons are discussion-based and encourage students to think critically and form their own interpretations. My goal is not only to help students achieve strong results, but to build their confidence and independence!

Elena is a considerate, amiable mentor who has been invaluable to my progress within the English curriculum. Each lesson is designed thoughtfully, with information carefully spaced out into manageable chunks, all of which is easily understandable. Her clear, actionable criticism allows for a clearer pathway to improvement — with specific tips ranging from exam recommendations for generic exam details to intriguing blurts that help broaden the subject’s applicability. Elena’s ability to comprehensively describe even the most complex topics is a defining feature of her teaching — I have progressed tremendously through her mentoring and am assured that under her wise counsel, other students will too!
