The #1 choice for Advanced English Tutor
In Year 10 and Year 11, students are faced with the difficult decision of whether to choose Standard or Advanced English. It’s common for students to struggle with the level of English appropriate to their skills.
Standard English in itself is a time-consuming subject, and with Advanced English, students will need to engage with even more complex texts, which takes even more time. As an English student, you must be able to identify a wide variety of literary techniques, discuss them in detail, and demonstrate that you understand how composers use technique to represent meaning.
Students with special needs may benefit from more support to excel at school and may not find standard classes suitable. Working with a special needs tutor can help better customise the tutoring to the students’ needs and compensate for their learning disabilities. See what parents have to say about our tutors here.

Frequently Asked Questions:
When is the best time to start tutoring?
There is no better time than now! Tutoring isn’t just for those that are struggling – it also provides advanced students an opportunity to feel challenged and refine their skills. Having someone partner with you to bring out the best in your child is completely invaluable – and we recommend it at every age and level.
Does my child need a tutor?
Tutoring is for more than just those who struggle. In fact, you will usually find the students at the top of the class are there BECAUSE they have a tutor. Your tutor will become a partner in your child’s education journey, bridging the gap between home and the classroom. We believe every single student has something to gain from the support of an Alchemy tutor – and we know you will see this too.
Are there contracts or do I pay in advance?
No – there are no contracts and we are entirely pay as you go. We use an automated payment system that simply charges your debit or credit card 24 hours after each lesson occurs.
Will my tutor provide content and resources?
Yes – your tutor will have full access to our resource centre which contains thousands of worksheets, practice tests and text books. They will tailor every lesson around your child’s needs and design a unique program for them. To avoid waste we encourage our tutors to use digital worksheets so may bring a tablet or laptop – if you’d prefer to have them printed your tutor can send them to you ahead of a lesson for you to print at home.
How long does each lesson go for?
We leave this up to you to discuss with your tutor – but most of our students do between 1-2 hours per week. Our data shows that students see the most progress when they do a 1.5 hour lesson each week. There is no need to agree to a fixed session length – your tutor simply logs the length of session after each lesson occurs (with your prior agreement of course!).
Will my child have an assessment?
Yes. In the first lesson your tutor will deliver an assessment on your child, seeing where their strengths and weaknesses lie. After the session, your tutor will discuss their findings with you and send them through to you by email. From there, they will then develop a 10-week strategy to see your child reach their goals.
Why choose Alchemy over other options?
There are so many reasons, but the one thing we are most proud of is what makes us who we are. Alchemy is the medieval science of turning metals in to gold. It is the act of taking the ordinary and making it extraordinary – something our tutors do with our students every single day. The Alchemy difference is that we care about so much more than just marks. This resonates in everything we do – from the tutors we hire through to the lessons we plan. We want to see your child perform at their very best in all aspects of life – and not just in the classroom. It is this passion for so much more than just academic results that gives us the reputation we have – with thousands of verified 5-star reviews online.
How do you monitor progress?
We test students regularly to monitor improvements. The frequency of this will be up to your tutor, and you are welcome to discuss this with them in the first session to work out a testing cycle that is ideal for your child.
How often will lessons happen?
We recommend weekly sessions for every student. Consistency is so important in education, so irregular lessons may halt your child’s progress.
Is the first lesson a free trial lesson?
No – but it is covered by our first session 100% happiness guarantee. This means that if you are not 100% convinced the tutor we have lined up for you is the right tutor for your child, the session is on us and we can organise someone else that better suits your needs. If however you are happy to continue (and we are confident that you will be!) then we charge you for the first session when you submit payment details.
Some students might find the concepts of Advanced English challenging to grasp and may need additional assistance to make the most of the subject. We offer Advanced English tutoring that can help struggling students improve their grades in the subject and also work with gifted students as they study ahead of the teacher.
Our proven tutoring techniques and individualised tutoring approach ensure that we can work with any student regardless of their challenges in the subject and deliver tangible results.
How We Can Help
As a leading tutoring service, we understand that every student is not only unique but is also looking for something different from their tutor. That is why we offer different types of tutoring to ensure we provide learners with the support they need in their Advanced English subject. Some of the Advanced English tutoring services we can provide include the following:
Tutoring
Tutoring is the anchor of Alchemy Tuition and is perfect for Advanced English Students who need assistance in different areas of the subject. Contrary to popular opinion, tutoring is not just for struggling students who need extra assistance and attention to grasp various concepts of the subject; it is also for gifted students and students who simply want to enjoy a more individualised form of tutoring and one-on-one attention.
The secret to the success of our Advanced English tutoring is matching students with the perfect tutor based on their learning methods, needs and personality. We always pair the student with a tutor who has experience and success in helping students with similar challenges.
Students and families have the option of taking their tutoring online or one-on-one at home. Online tutoring provides students with access to a tutor 24/7, no matter where they are. This type of tutoring is ideal for students with a busy schedule who would prefer to take their lessons at night.
We also provide physical tutoring, where we send the tutor to you. This method of tutoring is not as flexible as online tutoring because the tutor is only available during the day. Advanced English home tutoring is also convenient because the tutor can conduct the lessons at a location that is convenient for you. Also, there’s the added benefit of the teacher being physically present, which allows for better accountability and for the tutor to understand your challenges first-hand.
No matter the tutoring option you pick, you get to choose when you want to take the lessons, how many lessons you want to take, and how long each lesson will be. The lesson schedule you settle on is flexible and can be adjusted to match your needs, ensuring the student can keep doing the things they love and take tutoring during their free time.
Test Preparation
Besides helping students understand the different concepts of Advanced English through tutoring, we can also help students prepare for their Year 12 Advanced English tests. With our test preparation service, the tutor will help the learner come up with a revision schedule and ensure they stick to it. The tutor will also provide the learner with tips and tricks that will help them maximise their exam time for the best results.
