tutoring with camellia
One-on-one tutoring
I work closely with my students to develop their knowledge of in-class concepts and writing skills to best prepare them for their assessments and exams. I am particularly familiar with assessment requirements and methods as well as the prescribed texts for both HSC and IB and my lessons closely follow and build on in-class learning.
Many students in Year 11 and Year 12 feel that they don’t have the writing skills required to compose extended responses, essays and creative responses. As such, I concentrate my lessons on building these writing skills through the concepts that are taught in-class.
I make it my priority to adapt my teaching style to suit each student so that we can target their particular needs with whichever learning style works best for them. I believe that the best results come from confident students, and helping students build this confidence is something I pride myself on.
Editing and feedback
In addition to one-on-one tutoring, I offer editing and feedback for all forms of writing. Students may find this particularly helpful during time-sensitive assessment periods. The feedback and editing will take into consideration previous teacher feedback, the assessment outline and marking criteria.
I also edit English Extension 2 Major Works and provide extensive feedback from the work's conception to its final stages right before submission.
