My lessons are designed to help students grow in confidence, clarity, and capability in English and Humanities subjects. I take a practical, personalised approach: each lesson is shaped around the student’s goals, current ability, and learning style. Whether we are working on reading comprehension, essay structure, close analysis, or understanding literature and classical texts, I aim to make the process enjoyable, achievable, and deeply rewarding.
A typical lesson runs for 60 minutes and includes a mixture of guided learning, examples, modelling, and practice. I focus heavily on teaching students how to think about texts, not just what to write. This means learning clear strategies, building strong analytical habits, and developing the skills needed for high-quality writing and confident interpretation of English texts. I also provide structured feedback so students know exactly how to improve.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts, Honours in English Literature, and I am currently completing a PhD in Literature and Theology. I have experience teaching young people, tutoring academic writing, and supporting students in developing strong reading and writing skills. My background allows me to break down complex ideas clearly and help students build strong foundations in English, literature, essays, and classical studies.
These lessons are ideal for:
• High school students (Years 7–12) wanting to improve English or Humanities
• Senior students preparing for exams or major essays
• University students needing support in writing, analysis, or humanities subjects
• Anyone who wants to strengthen reading, writing, or literary understanding
My goal is always to equip students with tools that make learning easier, clearer, and more enjoyable—not just for one assignment, but for the long term.
