Secondary English Tutor

Lunar Academy prides itself on being the best place for students to enhance their education and achieve their dreams. We teach students of ALL LEVELS, from those who have just started school (kindergarten) to those in their final secondary years (VCE/IB).

**Responsibilities**:
Tutors are the leaders of the classroom, responsible for ensuring the academic, social, and emotional success of their students. At Lunar Academy, we believe students learn best when their tutor customises the content and teaching style to suit their individual needs. Tutors must actively engage with the administration team to gather activities and resources tailored to their students' strengths and weaknesses. We provide abundant resources and support to ensure your success.

Tutors are required to communicate regularly about their students' progress. While some parents prefer informal weekly chats, others may request detailed written feedback. Tutors are expected to accommodate these preferences and help students and parents understand their educational outcomes.
