About

CURRENTLY TAKING BOOKINGS FOR 2026 Hello! My name is Lydia and I am 23 years old. I hold three degrees specialising in creative, professional and academic writing! Most recently (December 2025) I graduated with First Class Honours from RMIT’s Bachelor of Media and Communications (Hons), and now I am pursuing a career as an academic researcher, creative writer and poet. I am currently on a gap year, but hope to return to university soon in order to complete a PhD, and become a university lecturer! ⭐️What tutoring I provide⭐️ I currently provide tutoring for English and English Literature subjects at any year level ranging from year 7 to year 12. I am based in the Macedon Ranges, and for those located within the Macedon Ranges and Sunbury I provide home visits as well as online, so that you may learn in whichever space feels most comfortable and familiar to you. ⭐️My approach to tutoring⭐️ My goal with English/Literature tutoring is to first understand what I can help you with — be that guiding you through exams or assessments, helping you improve your skills in a particular writing style, discussing set texts with you, teaching you how to analyse narratives and write essays, or all of the above. In this way my tutoring style is student-led, and needs-oriented. Moreover, one of my main goals as a tutor is to highlight and cultivate the skills that you already possess, so as to build your confidence in your own abilities and thus better scaffold your academic success. ⭐️Please reach out!⭐️ I am willing to negotiate days, times and locations beyond those listed below!

Reviews

Character references

I‘ve known Lydia for my whole life, and have seen how her upbringing, surrounded by literary passion and knowledge of the English language, has instilled in her an extraordinary love of literature. She has excellent writing skills, and is able to share her insight with a large variety of pupils, both at an academic and simplified level. I highly recommend Lydia as an English tutor for anyone who may be interested, and can assure that she has the textbook and emotional intelligence to help anyone with their learning!

Travel policy

Willing to travel within the Macedon Ranges and to Sunbury, however locations in Kyneton will incur an extra travel fee of $10, as Kyneton is a significant drive (45 minutes) from where I live.
