English tuition Burwood.
Small classes and one-to-one English for Years 7–12 at our centre on Burwood Road — and online for families across Sydney. Led by Dr Daniel Brocklehurst; every tutor holds at least a degree in English.
English tuition for every stage.
Whether your child needs foundations in Years 7–9 or Band 6–focused HSC coaching, we teach in Burwood and online.
Years 7–9 English classes
Small groups of 5–10, two hours a week, hybrid (in person at Burwood and live on Zoom). Grammar, essay craft, literature and independent reading — a sequenced course that builds toward senior English.
HSC English · 1:1
Personalised sessions for English Standard, Advanced, Extension 1 and Extension 2. School texts, assessment prep and exam technique — with the writing always the student’s own.
Private tuition
One-to-one for Years 7–12, in Burwood or online. Weekly term-time lessons with a Gold or Platinum tutor, paced to your child’s school work.
Scholar’s Programme
Our most comprehensive Years 7–9 pathway: weekly small class plus a weekly Platinum 1:1, for students serious about excellence.
Suite 6, on Burwood Road.
Bright, quiet classrooms a short walk from Burwood station and Westfield. Every group class is also streamed live on Zoom, so students can join from home when they need to.

Deep skills. Top bands.
True scholars as teachers
Founded by Dr Daniel Brocklehurst (Oxford MSt, MSc, PGCE; PhD English, University of Sydney). Our tutors are English specialists, not generalist coaches.
Burwood, built for small groups
A calm centre designed for 5–10 students — discussion, close reading and careful feedback, not crowded halls.
Integrity first
We guide, model and give feedback. We never write a student’s essays. Progress you can trust.
Chinese-speaking families welcome
Many of our families speak Chinese at home. We work with each family to keep communication clear.

Will you write my child’s essays?
No. We teach reading, planning, structure and revision so students write their own work. That is better teaching — and it keeps school rules intact.
