English Tutoring, from potential to progress
Our specialist English tutors teach flexibly in-person in Melbourne and online across Victoria.
How tutoring works
Free consultation
A 20-minute call about year level, school, texts and goals.
Diagnostic
A short writing sample in session one sets a baseline against the student's specific needs.
Custom roadmap
A term-by-term plan appears in your Student Hub, mapped to your school's SAC and test dates or learning milestones.
Weekly loop
Teach → practise → feedback, every week, with progress checkpoints.

Common questions
Why don't you tutor other subjects?
Because doing one subject properly is hard enough. Every tutor, resource and rubric we use is built for VCE English and EAL.
Who are the tutors?
Registered English teachers and high-achieving graduates who studied English at university. Every tutor holds a current Working with Children Check.
How quickly will we see a difference?
Most students notice stronger essay structure and clearer contentions within about 4–6 weeks. Bigger jumps in study score build over a term or more.
Is marking included?
Tutoring includes feedback and guidance on homework drafts. Detailed line-by-line marking against the full VCAA rubric is a separate service — see Essay Marking, or choose Advanced for the most individual plan.
Online or in person?
Both. Online sessions run statewide; in-person sessions are available in Melbourne. Many students mix the two.
What's the minimum commitment?
A 10-week block.
