Testimonials
“Daniel was my tutor throughout the senior years of high school. With his expertise, I was able to articulate my thoughts with the personalised vocabulary I had developed which really shone through when preparing for my HSC, helping me achieve a band 6. Being his student was truly an enjoyable experience and I recommend him to those ready to embark on a literary journey!”
