About Ilona
I support students to choose: GCSE, A-level and University subjects; work experience; and entry level jobs that will lead them towards a fulfilling profession. I help to select universities and jobs as well as with the application process including personal statements. I can work with you through the whole process and start by helping you to understand yourself better as well as what it is that you want to do, from there we can then explore where will suit you best so that you can flourish, and finally I will support you through the nitty gritty of the application and interview process. I only offer online support as I have relocated to France.
Why do I coach?
A good education creates opportunities, it gives you the flexibility to choose what you want to do. Good coaching helps you to figure out what you want and how to get. When you combine the two you are empowered to take control of your own life and decide your future. This is why I believe so strongly in the power of education and why I love coaching students.
I tutored part-time from 2010 - 2019, covering all core subjects, from 11+ to GCSE level. I finished a teaching qualification in 2014 (PGCE) and in 2017 I completed a 2 year coaching training with iDiscover360. From 2019 - 2021 I worked full time at The Dyson Institute, supporting and coaching Undergraduate Engineers to help them achieve their full potential. In 2021 I also completed my Professional Certificate in Executive Coaching from Henley Business School. I have also worked as a public speaker in schools, speaking about mental health.
I offer discounts for lessons of 2 hours and longer.

Perfect! Excellent tutor-highly recommended
Ilona has helped my 11 year old son immensely with his maths since she started tutoring him a few weeks ago. She is very empathetic and has built his confidence and belief in himself in just a few sessions already. She is always curtious and punctual, and is extremely knowledgable in many subjects. I would highly recommend Ilona for any child that is struggling at school and needs someone to bring the best out of them. My son always looks forward to being taught by Ilona. Thank you Ilona and this site!
Subject : MathsPerfect! Excellent tutor
Ilona is a very good teacher who relates well with her pupils. She helped to prepare my son for his assessment at a selective london prep. She taught him maths, English, handwriting and helped instill in him the required level of classroom discipline. She also helped with his level of focus - this was a major issue as my son found it very hard to concentrate on the same task for long periods at a time. Thanks to the support provide by llona, my don got into our school of choice.
Outcome : Ilona is an excellent teacher and I have no hesitation in recommending her.View more reviews

For everyone who is struggling with their personal Statement and who needs help with their choices, Ilona is the perfect Tutor. When I applied for Universities in the U.K last year, I was hardly struggling with my personal Statement. I only had about 2 weeks before my application was due and I was sitting there with uncertainty about my choices and couldn't put my words on the paper for my personal statement. This was when I contacted Ilona, who provided me with such detailed information about plenty Universities out of her head during our first session which made it really easy for me to decide which Uni's I preferred. Since I am going to school in Canada, we had our sessions via skype which worked really well because Ilona was able to answer all my questions on such short notice. We then started to work on my personal Statement, she gave me in depth detailed comments/tips which made it incredibly easy for me to structure my statement and say what I really wanted to say. Ilona puts all her attention towards you when she works with you and supports with plenty of well-structured information that she creates based on your personal interests. All in all, I couldn't have asked for a nicer, smarter and fun to work with tutor during my application process.
Ilona prepared my daughter for her 11+ maths entrance exams. Maths is her favourite subject but she had received no preparation at all for the exams from her (state) primary school. In just a term Ilona covered all the main bases and introduced her to exam strategies that really boosted her confidence. Aside from the great outcome it was a pleasure having Ilona help us - she was consistently well prepared, focussed, patient and fun, and my daughter absolutely loved the lessons with her.
Ilona has been training my 16years old daughter, Natalia to write English essays and i was incredibly impressed by the motivation she has managed to arouse in her . Natalia is going
To her GCSE exam with so much confidence. we are grateful to Ilona for this.We live in Canada and are going to move to London. Ilona prepared my sons for 11+ and 13+ entrance exams over Skype. She is very knowledgable, patient, well prepared and fun to learn with, my sons always looked forward to have tutoring with her.
I'm very impressed by her teaching ability and highly recommend her.Ilona tutored twin students from the Middle East, for a period of several years whilst they studied for their GCSE's, then International Baccalaureate (IB) and Cambridge Pre U. This was done in the UK during term time and the Middle East during school vacations. Ilona quickly established a good working relationship with her students and created an environment in which they found it easy to discuss areas of concern. This rapidly increased their level of confidence in the subject.
She spent considerable time with them, identifying areas of weakness in their understanding and building knowledge in those areas. She also provided excellent guidance on exam technique.
As the final examinations approached, Ilona demonstrated a high level of commitment to the students and great flexibility in finding time within her busy schedule to fit in extra tutoring sessions. This ensured that the students entered their examinations feeling very well prepared and confident.
I have no hesitation in recommending Ilona as a tutor.Excellent support on essay writing and coursework!
Ilona has a very easy open manner enabling her to establish excellent rapport with her students. The result is that she can identify where the extra teaching needs to be focused very quickly. Working closely with the student she handles each learning curve in a systematic way and in my experience delivers great results in a short space of time. Overall she is professional, knowledgeable and reliable and she made the difference in helping my son get the best possible grades he can.
