Melbourne tutor in English, English Literature, ESL, Essay Writing, Reading

This is my eighth year of tutoring VCE English and VCE English Literature.

I have a wealth of experience, having taught 60+ students across metropolitan Melbourne. The majority of my pupils have attended leading private schools and I have become very familiar with the course and SAC structures over the years.

My raw VCE results are 50 in English and 49 in English Literature. I graduated from The University of Melbourne with a Bachelor of Arts majoring in English & Theatre Studies, followed by an Honours year where I specialised in Classical literature.

I specialise in contemporary curriculum materials, conducting classes by complementing and enhancing the theoretical knowledge pertaining to the English syllabus of the school in question (i.e. Frankenstein as text response, The Crucible as part of a comparative essay, or a thematic approach to language analysis). The style I use and correct with has been met with success. Much of the updated English syllabus contains texts I have studied at a tertiary level, most notably Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Students may rest assured that in my lessons, each week focuses purely on the upcoming SAC, and how knowledge will then be consolidated into the end of year exam.

I focus upon strengthening their hold over their written expression, building a lengthy application of sophisticated yet appropriate vocabulary, and essay structure. If students have any particular qualms or difficulties, I curtail my approach to address any continuing issues.
