About Elise
Hi, my name is Elise Marlow and I've been teaching for decades! I started my career in the UK working in Kent for 15 years teaching English and Drama, before moving to Thailand and then the Middle East to work teaching KS3, GCSE and A' level English and English Literature in international schools. I have helped students with a variety of needs get great grades - issues with spelling, punctuation and grammar; learning English as a second or third language; developing ideas; planning answers under exam conditions ... I'm a patient teacher and students in the past have commented that I explain well and really help them to understand what they have to do to improve.
Getting to know you, finding out what you are good at and enjoy doing - not just in school, but in life - is really important for me. It helps me to find ways of explaining ideas or adapting strategies that help you personally improve your English; if I just repeat things you've heard before and didn't understand, nothing's going to change. Students in the past have said I'm approachable and listen well; they were confident that I would give them the time and help they needed to improve. I look forward to meeting you and helping you improve your English.

Perfect! Extremely helpful
Elise is the best tutor we have ever come across. Elise encourages my 15 year son with his IGCSE English Language and Literature Lessons. Elise delivers in a most clear and concise method. My son requires thorough explanations and Elise delivers in a 100% clear and easily understood method.
Subject : English LiteraturePerfect! Brilliant tutor
Elise was the best tutor - she was very engaging, thoughtful and helpful, and always provided extra resources and feedback. She has a great understanding of the exam boards and what to expect in the exam which was invaluable and our conversations could be flexible beyond the specification. I would definitely recommend her as an english tutor.

Perfect! The best outcome possible
When my son began tuition with Elise for his A'Level English Literature he was on the B/C border although he had produced work A grade work. Soon after Elise's tuition he had moved up a grade in college and has now achieved an A in his A'Level. This is particularly pleasing as his college has been rated as 'Requires Improvement' and the average grade (historically) in the sixth form is a D-. Elise was exceptionally well prepared for each class and my son thoroughly enjoyed their discussions as they considered his texts from all angles. I was also provided with extensive and detailed feedback on each class which provided my son with focus. Elise also set homework between lessons which helped my son develop his essay writing/question answering techniques. I can't recommend Elise highly enough!
Subject : English Literature
Outcome : An A in A'LevelPerfect! Excellent tutor
when I started with Elise I started being able to consistently submit work at my target grade after being just beneath it for most of my first year. I believe this was probably a key part of my eventual A grade at the A'level. She was always very enthusiastic and friendly and I found her student led style very helpful in developing my own opinions of the texts I was studying.

Elise has been a fantastic help over the last few months. I've noticed my son has been much more engaged with the texts and has really enjoyed the online sessions. He has become much more confident as Elise showed him some really motivating revision techniques. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Elise to anyone.
Subject : English Literature
Outcome : An increase in confidencePerfect! Highly organised and thorough
When I began looking for a tutor, I wanted a qualified, experienced teacher who could identify where my son's strengths are weaknesses are to help him produce clear, strong answers in his A' Level English Literature. Elise has exceeded my expectations and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Elise clearly knows exactly what the exam boards are looking for and has catered her tuition for that purpose. She is punctual and her lessons are exceptionally well planned.
Elise has provided me with detailed feedback and constructive guidance for my son to work with. She has given him exercises to do which he has found beneficial.
My son is clearly benefiting from Elise's tuition.
