Simple answer:
in Ester that is -COOR there is R group that is the combination carbon and hydrogen atoms.
And -R group always shows +R effect thus decreases -R effect.

R is a alkyl group and so it is a electron pushing group and so t shows -R effect much better than H
 
COO

since “R”(Alkyl) group is +R group so decrease -R effect while H doesnot hence-R effect of -COOR is greater than -COOH.
