Experienced English Teacher
(3 student reviews)
As a VCAA VCE English assessor for a number of years and a secondary English teacher for more than thirty years, I offer students considerable experience which will assist their learning in English. My focus is the development of key skills to enable students to achieve their best results whether at Year 7 or Year 12.
As well as extensive experience teaching VCE English, I have led English departments at Blackburn HIgh School and Koonung Secondary College where I was also Literacy Manager.
I can assist students in structuring and writing essays, analysing argument and persuasive language, reading, understanding texts, responding to texts and comparing texts, oral presentations, expression, grammar, vocabulary, spelling, organisation, providing feedback on essays, preparing for and tackling examinations, creative writing and develop their confidence in the process.
Do contact me if you would like to discuss the needs of your son or daughter or book in for a session.

"Just when I nearly gave up hope to do well in VCE units 3 and 4 English, because of my mediocre English results in year 11 at Melbourne high school (B or B+ average), I came across Ms Minear on this page. And may I say, I do not regret having her at all because she has undoubtedly done everything she could to help me improve, ultimately playing a huge role in my raw 44 study score this year(2017). She was patient and provided me countless extra material that helped with SACs, more in-depth understanding of the texts, and even corrected simple and small grammar mistakes, showing exactly the dedication and professionalism of Ms Minear. She does a lot of preparation work before each session and adjusts to your needs, whatever it may be. She has never been late or missed a single session, and gave me her full attention whilst she was with me, discussing texts, practising oral presentations, planning essay topics, you name it. Don’t miss out! I owe most of my success(of course, you would need to work hard too!) in English to Ms Minear and I will never forget it. I’ll strongly recommend Ms Minear to anyone looking for an English tutor, and that includes you, the one reading this, whoever this may be :)"
