Hi everyone,
I am an English Teacher with a Dip Ed from Maquarie, and a Bachelor of Arts from Sydney with Honours in English and History.
I am keen to tutor anyone who needs it either online or in person. I am experienced in teaching English from years 7-12 (up to Ext 2).
If you want one-on-one tutoring outside of the net, I charge about $40 per hour, in the North Shore area.
I am keen to help you maximise your potential, whether that means a band 6 or a band 2.
If you are interested, drop me a post!
Julia Collings

Hey Laura,
what areas do you particularly have problems in? can you send me a sample of an essay so I can have an idea of what you need?

well i got my results from my half yearly english exam back today.

i got 72% in advanced so i must be doing something right. but i want to raise that by about 10 though.

are you familiar with the texts i am studying?

all my comments on the exam say i know what im talking about but i need to relate my answers back to what the question is asking and i need to move to the next level. it happens time and time again. i dont do enough analysis and synthesis. so im having trouble with that area.

im not too sure if i need a tutor. none of my friends think i need one ... but im still unsure.

i'll send an essay when i type one up.

thanks again.

Hey julia...just wondering whether u have experience marking HSC exams? it's not essential but i would prefer it cos my major problem lies in my inability to perceive the faults of my own work and i need a tutor that will be able to mark any practice essays or creatives i write at the expected HSC level and give me constructive feedback as to how to maximise my marks. If you are willing to offer this PLEASE reply with ur details so we can have a trial session. THANKS!

Ok for Laura,
I am familiar with Hamlet and R&G, and Frontline, both of which I taught at James Ruse

For Attitude,
I am not an HSC marker, but i have been tutoring HSC students for the past 2 years...what are your texts?
