About
Hi there, I'm Paul! I graduated in 2019 with an ATAR of 99.85, and study scores of 49 in Literature and 47 in English. Since then, I've tutored many students in English and Literature, helping all kinds of students, from dictionary-gobbling whiz-kids, to ever-suffering book-haters, to achieve their personal best. After a brief stint in the scary corporate business world, I'm now doing my Masters in Creative Writing, Publishing and Editing at the University of Melbourne — so if you want to take your creative writing to the next level... well, you know who to call! Unsurprisingly, when not tutoring, you can find me reading cosy murder mysteries, or writing epic fantasy novels. So if you're looking to really deepen your text analysis, write stories that make your teachers jump for joy, and trauma bond over uncharitable exam topic sentences, join the waitlist, and hopefully I'll see you around!
