MEET YOUR TUTOR

Hello I’m Lorraine. Your Fortis Education
Principal English Tutor.

With decades of experience teaching English, I’ve dedicated my career to helping students express themselves with clarity, confidence, and purpose. As a VCAA English assessor, I bring deep insight into what examiners look for and how students can refine their writing to meet and exceed VCE standards. Over the years, I’ve supported countless students across all levels of English, guiding them to strengthen their analytical thinking, develop sophisticated writing skills, and approach SACs and exams with confidence. My teaching approach focuses on clear structure, thoughtful expression, and strong textual understanding, ensuring students move beyond rote learning and learn to communicate with real impact.

At Fortis Education, my mission is simple: to help every student find their voice, craft powerful responses, and achieve their best possible result in English both in the classroom and beyond.
