What students say

Former students of The English Kit.

Portrait of Nicoletta, Year 12, 2023

"I was lucky to have Kit as my private tutor throughout VCE, and it completely changed how I approached English. He had a way of pushing me to think outside the box, and helped me come up with ideas that were so unique that my own teachers at school were genuinely impressed. I went from constantly overthinking and freezing up when trying to write, to having ideas flow so naturally it felt effortless. In the beginning, I was blown away at how he could think and write the way he did, but somewhere along the way he transformed me into that kind of thinker too. I went from being an average English student to achieving a 40+ study score, and a huge part of that came down to his support and guidance."

"Kit tutored me through Year 12 English and took me from a good English student to getting the highest study score in my year level. He is encouraging, provides specific and detailed feedback in a timely manner and built my confidence throughout the year. I couldn't recommend him more highly."

The method

We teach students how to think, not what to write

The strongest English students don't rely on a formula. They know how to read a question, develop an original argument, engage closely with a text and express their ideas with precision. That is what we teach.

Our tutors work beneath the surface of the essay — developing the thinking, analysis and writing skills that allow students to respond confidently to unfamiliar questions and perform under exam conditions.

  • Start with a clear diagnosis — a week-one assessment identifies each student's strengths, gaps and priorities.
  • Learn with purpose — a term-by-term plan is aligned with your school's texts, assessment schedule and upcoming demands.
  • Receive rigorous feedback — every piece of written work is marked against the VCAA criteria, with clear guidance on how to improve.
  • Keep parents informed — regular progress updates give you a clear picture of your child's development, without waiting for the report card.
