About

SEVEN YEARS’ EXPERIENCE | RAW 50 STUDY SCORE | PREMIER’S AWARD | VCE HONOUR ROLL Hi, I’m Grace, a specialist VCE English tutor with over 7 years of experience helping students transform their writing, confidence, and exam results. I’m currently studying Law and Biomedical Science at Monash University and specialise in helping students move from uncertainty to high performance through clear, structured, exam-focused English tutoring. Across recent cohorts, students typically improve from the 60s into the 80s+, with many progressing from borderline or inconsistent results to achieving strong SAC outcomes within 1 to 2 months. A large number go on to achieve study scores of 40+. My Approach: I focus on building strong rapport with each student and creating a supportive, judgement-free environment where they feel comfortable developing their ideas and refining their writing. Strong English results come from clarity, structure, and consistent feedback. I tailor every session to the student’s exact needs, whether that is essay structure, analytical expression, text response development, or exam technique, with a strong emphasis on teaching students how to meet VCAA criteria explicitly and consistently. My goal is not just to improve marks, but to develop confident, independent writers who know exactly how to approach any prompt under exam conditions. Lessons Include: -High-scoring essay structures aligned to VCAA assessment criteria -Clear, step-by-step breakdowns of texts, themes, and prompts -Language analysis and argument development strategies -Detailed SAC and practice essay feedback -Examiner insight using VCAA reports and top-band responses -Exam strategy, timing, and revision planning -Pre-teaching content to stay ahead of school pacing and maximise SAC performance All Students Receive: - A shared Google Drive with SACs, exams, notes and sample responses - A personal progress document tracking lesson summaries, feedback and improvements - Flexible, individualised support, including experience working with students with ASD, ADHD and dyslexia I currently take on a small number of new students each term to maintain a high level of individual attention and results-focused support. A complimentary initial consultation is available to discuss your child's goals and find the right fit, so message me today to book yours! Also available for tutoring in Biology, Economics, and Italian at both VCE and junior levels. *Testimonials from past students below.*

Reviews

I was tutored by Grace in both Economics and Biology throughout 2025 and I am so grateful for her help. She was amazing at breaking down difficult concepts and explaining them clearly using real-life examples, which made lessons engaging and complemented what I was learning in class. Going through practice questions with Grace and learning how to break them down step by step was especially helpful. She is a great tutor to work with and someone I got along with really well. I honestly wouldn’t have been able to do it without you, Grace. Thank you so much for all your help!

Grace has been an amazing support throughout my Year 12 journey, and I honestly couldn’t have done it without her. She helped me improve enormously and consistently went above and beyond to ensure I had the resources, confidence, and knowledge needed to maximise my English results. I’m incredibly grateful for all her efforts and support. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for an academic edge and a friendly, encouraging mentor who I genuinely connected with.

Grace has been an exceptional tutor for my daughter. From the very first lesson, it was clear she not only understands the curriculum in depth but also explains it in an engaging and accessible way. She takes the time to identify areas of weakness and adapts her teaching to suit the student's learning style, building both skill and confidence. Before starting with Grace, my daughter was struggling with English and lacked confidence in her writing. Within a few months, her grades improved significantly and, more importantly, she began to enjoy the subject. Grace’s support has gone well beyond academic improvement – she’s helped foster a genuine interest in learning and a strong sense of self-belief. Grace is professional, reliable and always well-prepared. She creates a positive, motivating learning environment. We are very grateful to have found her and highly recommend her to any parent seeking a committed and effective tutor.

Grace is an incredible VCE English tutor! Before working with her, I was getting B’s, but with her help, I improved to A+ and ended up with a 46 study score. She gave really detailed feedback, helped me refine my essay structure, and made everything so much clearer. She was also super supportive and made English feel way less stressful. I couldn’t have done it without her—highly recommend!

Grace’s tutoring was a big help in practicing for my Italian studies as she was able to help me focus on both on specific classwork as well as overall areas of importance for exams. As an Italian tutor, she helped me develop my skills of speaking during our lessons and her correction of my work allowed me to achieve great marks throughout the year. I found her very helpful as well as a fun and kind person which made our lessons interesting and enjoyable.

Grace, your efforts are ripples that will change the tides of our daughter’s future. Thank you for your patience and belief in our daughter helping her improve in English, we look forward to continuing with tutoring this year.
Lisa on 22nd January 2024
Grace is a wonderful tutor who is very organised and always tries to incorporate enjoyable activities. She always makes sure I am prepared and confident for upcoming assessments, and consistently revised grammar points or topics we have previously worked on. She is a lovely person and a very clear and likeable teacher, who I have immediately formed a connection with and makes me look forward to our sessions each week. Thanks so much for your help this year Grace!

Grace has been excellent as my 3/4 Italian tutor. Her lessons are detailed and varied focusing on all aspects of language - oral skills, listening, reading and writing. Grace’s lessons are flexible and were always personally tailored for my needs and focuses each week. She replies promptly to text messages and is diligent in scheduling lessons. Her passion for the language truly shines through in her classes which encouraged and motivated me through the academic year.
