Hi! Over the summer holidays I will be offering a condensed 6-week English headstart program for students heading into Year 12. This masterclass course will cover the entire English study design and allow me to transfer to you all my high-yield secrets, tips and advice about English before the school year begins. I have deliberately designed the program to be general instead of specific to any text, thereby making it suitable and accessible for all Year 12 students looking to master English regardless of the texts that they are studying.
About me:
- currently studying undergraduate medicine at Monash University
- raw 50 study score + Premier's Award in English
- perfect 60/60 exam score
- graduated from John Monash Science School in 2020
- 600+ hours of experience tutoring
- specialised in ‘All The Light We Cannot See’, ‘Ransom & The Queen’ and ‘Rear Window’
What the course will involve:
- 6 weekly lessons starting from mid-December through to the end of January, held online via Zoom
- structured, condensed lessons jam-packed with the unique essay-writing techniques, tips and strategies that enabled me to achieve my score
- guides on how to structure essays, including step-by-step templates for writing perfect introductions and conclusions
- comprehensive high-yield breakdowns on how to tackle each section of the exam
- a focus on special techniques that I've developed to succeed in Section C, including in-depth demonstrations of how I analyse and respond to language analysis pieces
- workshops on how to analyse film scenes and literary techniques and effectively incorporate them into your writing
- opportunities for detailed and individual essay feedback
- access to all my comprehensive notes, high-scoring essays and resources
If you have any questions or would like to confirm your place please do not hesitate to email me at tptutoring07@gmail.com. I am truly so passionate about English and tutoring and I cannot wait to help you achieve the scores you're aiming for 🙂

Testimonials from previous students who attended the masterclass program:
Tuyen is an excellent tutor and I would definitely recommend her summer program! Although we did different texts (one of which she studied up on for the sessions together!), she gave me really good insights into the whole course (including SAC-specific and exam info), as well as helping me improve my essay writing style early on (going through a practice ALA essay in detail together). All her lessons were well organised and clearly took lots of time and effort to prepare. She is a really nice and supportive individual, and her lessons were very engaging! Describing both course content itself as well as her own personal experience as both a tutor and during year 12 made the sessions even more enjoyable, and the resources she has are amazing. She was always happy to go overtime and answer any questions about English, year 12 or unrelated topics like medicine, and shows a genuine care and passion for helping her students 🙂
Firstly, I just want to say Tuyen is the most awesome tutor ever!! Only after a couple of weeks of tutoring I saw her feedback tremendously grow and develop my writing. Not only are her text responses and essays phenomenal, she also gave me such a great insight on year 12. All thanks to Tuyen, I feel a lot more confident about going head into my final year of English. Will miss her heaps!
Tuyen was the first tutor I ever had, and I don’t think I could’ve asked for a better first experience. She was so organised - the first lesson she went through my goals, previous experience, feelings about English despite it only being a six week program - and cheerful every lesson, and we genuinely had a laugh and good little chat each time. When we had to swap from in person to online due to COVID I was worried that I would find the lessons boring, but I actually ended up looking forward to them and Tuyen was so engaging. Tutoring to me is so much more than just the credentials (study scores, ATAR) and Tuyen has both this and a genuinely kind personality 🙂
