Specialist Tuition
As the only compulsory VCE subject,
English matters.
At school it can be difficult to focus, speak up, and get the targeted help you need. And with a subject like English, there's only so much that individual study or textbooks can provide.
​
With Dr Quine you get the attention, expertise, and individual focus needed to develop your understanding, skills, and strategies for success. Perhaps most importantly, you get the time and guidance that will help you think deeply, critically, and creatively. With confidence and proficiency, you might even find new enthusiasm for this most stimulating and practical of subjects.
Whether you're struggling to improve, or an ambitious high-achiever, Dr Quine can help take you to the next level. ​
​
No matter your future journey, a strong foundation in English is key to success.

How It Works
Many students seek extra help outside of the classroom. Joseph Quine English Tuition provides this one-on-one assistance in a formal and professional context which many in-home tutors cannot offer. While most tuition services contract undergraduate students and include agency commission and transport costs in their fees, JQET provides competitive rates for highly qualified tuition without these added costs. Lessons take place at the tutor's home in Bentleigh, VIC, in a designated tuition room. Online lessons are also available.
​
Dr Quine provides a friendly, engaging, and personalised approach to studying English. In a comfortable learning environment with all the necessary resources, students have the opportunities and specialist guidance needed to develop the understanding, skills, and strategies that enable success.

"We lost our tutor suddenly - 30 days before final VCE exams. Joseph took [my son] in last minute. He was very helpful, thorough, and explains well. I highly recommend Joseph - he's one of the best tutors we had."
