Elio Yague
Elio commenced his career as a Modern Foreign Language (MFL) tutor. Observing a decline in students’ familiarity with revision and examination techniques attributed to the transition to online learning, Elio developed an interest in imparting general study skills concurrently with subject-specific content. Recognising that academic achievement in GCSE and A-Level examinations hinges not solely on subject-specific knowledge but also on effective study skills, Elio has provided specific study skills tutoring since 2020. Both students and parents have attested to the enhanced confidence exhibited by students in their capacity to excel in examinations as a result of Elio’s guidance.
