Ylona T.

I’m a qualified secondary school teacher with current Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT) registration. I currently tutor secondary English and work as a primary school literacy intervention specialist, supporting students with dyslexia and other literacy difficulties. My classroom teaching experience includes secondary English and English as an Additional Language (EAL), and I have experience working with students with ADHD. I support students across all areas of English, with particular strengths in essay writing, vocabulary development and grammar. I also help students develop executive functioning skills by teaching practical strategies for getting started, organising their ideas, planning assignments and breaking larger tasks into manageable steps. I tailor each session to the student’s needs and help them build strategies they can use independently in the classroom and at home.
