Senior English/Literature Tuition: Pre VCE preparation, Pre 3/4 prep and ongoing (online only) tuition using ZOOM & Google Docs. Availability - weekdays (Dec/Jan) and evenings (Mon through Thursday) and Saturday tutorials. As an experienced teacher (20 years) of VCE English and Literature, I have extensive and up-to-date knowledge of the requirements of close textual/passage analysis, analysing argument and writing frameworks. Having been a VCE English exam assessor, I have an insight into the type of writing that examiners are keen to reward and the techniques to achieve this writing. My tutorials have clear objectives designed to support and extend a student's classroom learning in such areas as concept analysis & clarification, vocab precision & sophistication, and understanding the different essay writing requirements and techniques within the Literature and English courses. Over the past 8 years of private tuition, I have assisted senior students, of all levels of ability, so that - not only may they achieve their best in their exams - but they may also take on the world of words, ideas with greater confidence and competence. Please feel free to email me to arrange an online introductory chat.
