Sydney’s highest rated one-on-one HSC English tutoring for year 11 & 12 students
Year 11 and 12 will require more dedication and focus from a student than any other year so far.
For this reason, having someone by their side to mentor and support them through the hurdles of the HSC is so incredibly valuable.
For more than 15 years, we have been helping HSC students realise their true potential through our one-on-one English tuition. Our programs are for all student levels, from the very bottom to the top of the class.
Does your child want to get in to the best Universities? Are they striving to be Dux or make it on the honour roll? We have tutors that can make this happen.
Perhaps your child is an average student and they need someone to pull them to the next level? Our tutors can also help.
Because what we do is one-on-one, every lesson is tailored around your child’s needs, focussing on their specific strengths and weaknesses.
Under the support of an Alchemy tutor you’ll see them grow not only in their academic results but in their confidence and passion for learning.
English tutoring will help your child write better essays, more engaging creative stories and convey ideas with clarity – leading to them being more engaged, confident and social at school and putting them on a path to excel far beyond the HSC.
To give your child the best support, get them started with an Alchemy tutor today.
HSC English Tutoring that works around your family’s busy schedule
We know how hard it is juggling school pickups, practices and rehearsals for multiple children. For this reason we come to you and work around your schedule (we bet you breathed a sigh of relief just reading that!).
Where would you like to meet?
In your home
Our most popular and the most convenient option for busy families! Your tutor will come to your home at a time that works for you – no fighting for parking or braving the after school traffic – and work one on one with your child, giving them the skills they need to perform at their best.
At a school or library
If the home isn’t ideal or there are too many siblings or distractions around, your tutor can meet your child in your local library or school. Sometimes being in a public space can increase focus and motivation. Drop them off at the library and go get the grocery shopping done for the week – what a win!
Online
For students in rural areas or who can’t accomodate face to face sessions we can pair you up with one of our gold level tutors that can work in our custom-built online classroom. Our online tutors are those that have completed at least 100 face to face lessons and are the best of the best.
When you book, you simply let us know the best days and times for the lessons and we will organise a tutor to match. Easy, convenient and hassle-free!
Our HSC English tutors are the very best at what they do
Our English tutors are chosen not just for academic excellence but for being role models and mentors that have the ability to inspire the young people they work with.
Every tutor is hand selected, interviewed one-on-one and double reference checked before joining our team.
Our HSC English tutors are specifically chosen for their ability to work with students in years 11 and 12; demonstrating the passion, knowledge and relatability you would expect from a tutor working with someone at that age. They then go through our comprehensive training program to ensure they are fully equipped to work with your child.
We channel more than a decade of experience into training our tutors, giving them all the support and resources they need to bring out the gold in every student they work with.
All Alchemy tutors hold Working with children checks that we manually verify ahead of their first session. Meet some of them here.
About our HSC English Tutoring
In addition to helping your child prepare for upcoming assessment and exams, your tutor will work tirelessly to ensure they are performing at their optimum capability across three core areas:
Reading & Comprehension
The ability to efficiently process and interpret information is a skill that will stay with a person for life. Reading and comprehension are two pillars of English that need to be mastered – and your tutor will help your child do this.
Grammar & Writing
Essay writing is a skill that stretches across all subjects in the HSC, so getting it right it so important. Knowing how to write creatively, persuasively and with eloquence is something that can be learnt and perfected.
Communication
One of the most undervalued skills is the ability to communicate effectively. Reading and writing are both parts of communication, but communication is not limited to just this. We want to see your child grow in all areas of communication.
Whilst significant and measurable improvement in these areas are our goal for every student we work with, the Alchemy difference is that we care about so much more than just marks.
This mantra permeates everything we do – from the tutors we hire to how we connect and relate to our students. We want to see every student realise their full potential, whatever that may be. Your child will grow in confidence, boost their self-esteem and ultimately change how they view themselves and what they are capable of.
This is the Alchemy difference.
We offer HSC English Tutoring in all levels of HSC English – from standard English to extension 2.
