About Alena
I hold a Master's degree in Psychology and a PGCE teaching qualification, and I have over six years of teaching and tutoring experience helping students build confidence, develop strong academic skills, and achieve their educational goals. Throughout my career, I have worked with learners from a variety of educational backgrounds, supporting them to overcome challenges, deepen their understanding of psychological concepts, and reach their full potential.
Over the years, I have accumulated more than 3000 hours of online and face-to-face teaching experience and have helped many students achieve higher grades, gain confidence in their abilities, and successfully progress to the next stage of their education. I am proud to have received excellent feedback from students and parents, many of whom continue to recommend my tutoring and return for support throughout their academic journey.
I am passionate about creating a positive and encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, exploring ideas, and developing confidence in their abilities. I believe that students perform best when they feel supported, capable, and aware of their strengths, and I take pride in helping them become independent and successful learners.

I have over 3000 hours of online and face-to-face teaching experience and currently work with secondary, college, and university students.
My aim is to make Psychology engaging, accessible, and relevant while helping students develop a thorough understanding of key theories, studies, research methods, and psychological approaches. Whether you need support with exam preparation, essay writing, coursework, research projects, revision strategies, or understanding complex psychological concepts, I am here to help.
Lessons are tailored to each student's individual needs, learning style, and academic goals. I focus on developing both subject knowledge and critical thinking skills, helping students analyse psychological research, evaluate theories, and construct high-quality exam answers and academic assignments. Through clear explanations, structured learning, and regular encouragement, I help students build confidence in their understanding and achieve their academic potential.
I also provide support with essay planning, assignment structure, referencing, academic writing, and research skills at university level, helping students improve both their grades and their confidence as independent learners.

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.
I would be very happy to recommend Alena to anybody who needed her support.
Great teacher, very patient and knowledgeable. Alena helped me to structure my assignment

If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about your child’s progress and well-being, Alena is a great choice.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.
