Whether you want a raw 50, a 40, or simply to do the best you can in the time you have, I can help you.

I strongly believe English Language success depends on your ability to do the following.

One of the platforms through which Zoe supports us in this is our weekly 2 hour classes. She first goes into the theory of metalanguage, and how to structure SAQs/ACs/Essays, then she makes us apply the knowledge through doing application tasks on real texts to gain exposure and experience. Then, she also goes through each student very diligently and gives feedback on it, concluding with some key takeaways so that there are tangible ways to improve for next time.

This is also another thing I love about VCE English Language – anyone (including you, with the help of Zoe) can succeed. I often tell my younger peers this:

• Learning metalanguage is all about putting your head down, reading the textbook and understanding the content, just like any other maths or science subject
• Applying your knowledge is also doable, even if it’s hard work
• And if you’re seeking feedback (which Zoe does to a high level), and committing to small improvements over time, then you have gone one step further in mastering all three elements of success in English Language!

What makes Zoe’s feedback stand out is how personalised it is. She never gives generic praise or labels work as “perfect.” Instead, she acknowledges each student’s unique goals and calibrates her feedback accordingly. If you’re aiming for a 45+ study score, she’ll be constructively critical to help you achieve that standard, ensuring her advice always pushes you to the next level.

Another platform she has is her Notion and Google Docs. Not only do you get high quality content delivered in the 2 hour classes, but if you ever feel like you want to extend yourself she has (literally) 100s of documents which you can scroll through to learn more about the specifics of metalanguage or any other theory.

Within the Notion, she also provides around 100 high-quality ‘contemporary media examples’, most of which are exam-ready and already elaborated for use in the Essay. She really puts in a lot of the hard work needed to help her students succeed since they can focus more on applying their knowledge in Essays and finding nuances in the topic rather than having to worry about finding examples!

Beyond the classroom, Zoe’s commitment doesn’t waver. Her feedback on submitted work is prompt, thorough, and packed with insights to elevate your skills. Even when you feel your work is at its best, Zoe ensures there’s always room for growth and refinement.

She is also overall a wonderful mentor.

Tutoring, I believe, isn’t just about academic expertise; it’s about the person behind the teaching. Zoe’s empathy and approachable nature make her stand out. She creates a supportive environment where students feel valued and understood, fostering both academic excellence and personal confidence.

I can confidently say that her guidance has not only shaped my success in English Language but has also made me a more thoughtful and resilient student.

If you’re looking for a tutor who’s as invested in your growth as you are, Zoe is the one.
