Jimena is a very patient tutor who also has a vast knowledge on the English subject. She effectively analyses and explains language techniques in a way that is understandable. Overall would recommend.
Jaye is a really helpful tutor who helps identify your weaknesses and strengths as a student and guides you efficiently towards improving them!
Professional, kind, organised and patient. Am so grateful to find Nanditha. Such a great resource and help during our year 12 studies. Can’t recommend her any more highly. Has been a seamless experience and I know it will continue to be. Very reliable.Â
Tania has a lovely way of teaching. She is calm, patient and succinct without ‘over teaching’. She was able to very quickly identify what worked with our year 12 son and gain his trust and respect. She has helped him grow in confidence in his English analysis, text and article responses - and his enjoyment of English. He also draws on these skills in assessing media reports! We have had such a fabulous experience with Tania and would come back to her in a heartbeat for any future tutoring needs. Thank you so much, Tania!
Sophie is a reliable and organised tutor. She is responsive and has assisted our son in various subjects, including Science, History and English. We highly recommend Sophie as a tutor.
I think Atifa is really helpful and understanding. I have been doing alright with English and tutoring with Atifa has helped me improved. Through my persuasive writing, there is a clear improvement and it has been more visual through my marks as well. She is friendly and kind and is a great help when revising overwork and assignments. She is honest when it is needed and provides constructive feedback. She is a great tutor and to be her student is an honour.
A closer look at how BSSS English tutoring on Learnmate supports ACT students across the T course and Essential English
BSSS English under the ACT Board of Senior Secondary Studies offers two pathways. The T course (English) is the ATAR pathway, covering analytical writing, text response and close reading across Years 11 and 12. Essential English (A course) covers practical communication for non-ATAR pathways including workplace writing and community engagement. The T course contributes to the ACT Senior Secondary Certificate with ATAR calculated via the ACT scaling system. BSSS English tutors on Learnmate cover both pathways with specific assessment preparation.
Unlike most Australian states where one curriculum dominates, ACT students have multiple genuine English pathways. BSSS English T courses are the dominant pathway in ACT public schools and many independent schools. Several Canberra independent schools (Burgmann Anglican, Canberra Grammar, Radford, Brindabella Christian, Marist College) offer IB Diploma English. A small number of cross-border schools follow VCE English. Different pathways require different tutoring approaches; BSSS English tutors on Learnmate focus on the T course specifically.
BSSS English T courses are compulsory for ATAR calculation in the ACT. Your T course English result contributes to your ATAR via the ACT scaling system, determining university entry eligibility at ANU, the University of Canberra and interstate. ANU offers Creative Writing, Linguistics and English Literature pathways for students continuing English at university level.
BSSS English tutors on Learnmate operate online across Canberra and the ACT. Queanbeyan students who attend ACT schools and follow BSSS are well-served by the same network. Online delivery is the primary mode given the ACT’s smaller local English tutor pool. Canberra students can also browse English tutors in Canberra for multi-curriculum English tutoring including IB, primary and adult English alongside BSSS.
