Experience

I am a qualified (BA Hons, PhD; University of Sydney) English tutor with several years of experience assisting HSC English students and University students in essay writing, creative writing, and major works’ preparation.

Each lesson seeks to develop a student’s writing skills, to appeal to examiners and earn those valuable extra marks. This includes the creation of a compelling and interesting argument, the sound structuring of an essay, a persuasive analysis of the literary texts, and the use of an academic style of writing.

To achieve this, my lessons are designed to provide students with access to the best knowledge and understanding of essay writing. Each week, the student will construct different parts of an essay (introduction, core paragraphs, and conclusion) under my supervision. Topics for essays are drawn from each student’s scholastic routine, and thus also double as excellent tools for exam preparation. I provide direct and immediate advice, sentence-by-sentence, on how the student may improve the various aspects of the essay, and am always willing to provide helpful insights into the qualities an examiner desires when reading an essay. Vocabulary, literary techniques, and close reading analyses of texts are also studied extensively.

Exams place tremendous stress on students to perform at the highest level. Sadly, most classrooms are ill-equipped to help students lacking in experience, skill, and passion. I have a personal fondness for teaching students how to perfect their writing to ensure confidence, support, and happiness and well-being during exam periods.

I am available every day.

I DO NOT TRAVEL. My lessons are available online (Skype or via e-mail). This is for both peace of mind and to save students (and parents) valuable travel time. If you have any questions then please do not hesitate to contact me.
