I help high school and adult students dramatically improve their writing, reading, and exam performance in HSC English, IELTS, and PTE. My lessons are clear, practical, and focused on real exam demands, with plenty of feedback so you know exactly how to improve each week. Join my free HD Writing Squad classes to experience my teaching and start lifting your marks and scores.

Need higher marks in English or a better score in IELTS or PTE? I specialise in helping students write clearly, think critically, and perform confidently in both school assessments and major English exams.

I have extensive experience teaching HSC English (Standard, Advanced, Extension) as well as IELTS and PTE preparation, supporting students from Year 7 through to adult learners. My approach is structured but supportive: I break down complex tasks into simple steps and give detailed feedback so you always know what to fix and how to improve.

- Years 7–12 English, including HSC English (Standard, Advanced, Extension)

- Essay writing, text analysis, and creative writing

- Help with assessment tasks, exam revision, and study skills
