Personal Description:

SIX YEARS' EXPERIENCE | RAW 50 SS | PREMIER’S AWARD | VCE HONOUR ROLL

Hi there, I’m Grace - a committed and results-driven VCE tutor with over six years of experience supporting students in English, EAL, Biology, Economics and Italian, as well as junior-level subjects. I’m a Law and Biomedical Science student at Monash University, and bring both academic depth and practical teaching experience to every lesson.

Over the years, I’ve helped many students significantly improve their academic performance and confidence, with grades regularly increasing from the 60s to 80s and beyond. My past VCE students have averaged study scores of 40+, reflecting a strong track record of academic success.

Success Stories from My 2025 Cohort:
- One English student improved from an E to an A in text response writing within just two months of lessons.
- In Biology, a student increased their SAC score from 35% to 84% after consistent support and targeted preparation.
- Another student raised their reflective essay writing score from 65% to 95%.

Student reviews

Grace has been an exceptional tutor for my daughter. From the very first lesson, it was clear she not only understands the curriculum in depth but also explains it in an engaging and accessible way. She takes the time to identify areas of weakness and adapts her teaching to suit the student's learning style, building both skill and confidence.

Before starting with Grace, my daughter was struggling with English and lacked confidence in her writing. Within a few months, her grades improved significantly and, more importantly, she began to enjoy the subject. Grace’s support has gone well beyond academic improvement – she’s helped foster a genuine interest in learning and a strong sense of self-belief.

Grace is professional, reliable and always well-prepared. She creates a positive, motivating learning environment. We are very grateful to have found her and highly recommend her to any parent seeking a committed and effective tutor.

Grace is a wonderful tutor who is very organised and always tries to incorporate enjoyable activities. She always makes sure I am prepared and confident for upcoming assessments, and consistently revised grammar points or topics we have previously worked on. She is a lovely person and a very clear and likeable teacher, who I have immediately formed a connection with and makes me look forward to our sessions each week. Thanks so much for your help this year Grace!

Grace has been excellent as my 3/4 Italian tutor. Her lessons are detailed and varied focusing on all aspects of language - oral skills, listening, reading and writing. Grace’s lessons are flexible and were always personally tailored for my needs and focuses each week. She replies promptly to text messages and is diligent in scheduling lessons. Her passion for the language truly shines through in her classes which encouraged and motivated me through the academic year.
