Mr Scott Macleod

 Adelaide

Highly Experienced SACE Stage 1 and 2 English/RP Teacher

Adelaide tutor in English, English Literature, History, EAL, Journalism, Communication, Creative Writing, Media Studies, Society and Culture, ESL, Reading

I travel to these locations
Adelaide CBD, Eastern and Western suburbs

I am a highly experienced SACE Stage 1 and 2 teacher, having tutored a range of high school students in both public and private schools in middle and senior school English, HASS, Modern History, and Research Project courses for the past decade. My level of knowledge and understanding when it comes to curriculum in these subject areas has resulted in exceptional academic achievement, evident in numerous students receiving SACE Merits in Year 12 and outstanding overall ATAR scores.

My approach to tutoring is extremely supportive and collegial, directly influenced by my ongoing role as a lead English teacher in a prestigious high school located within the Adelaide CBD. I not only have a wealth of teaching experience in the subjects I tutor, but also use my own resources and knowledge of the IB and SACE curriculum pathways (serving as both an accessor and moderator of the Stage 2 English and English Literary Studies courses).

I am more than happy to offer tutoring on either an in-person or online basis across most weekday afternoons (or on the weekends), as students in the past have appreciated this level of flexibility when it comes to receiving support in their subjects that also aligns with their busy schedules.

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to let me know! :)
