About
crest ACADEMY

Hi, I’m Sydney Lay, founder of Crest Academy

I graduated in 2023 from The Mac.Robertson Girls’ High School with a Raw 50 in English Language and an ATAR of 99.45. I am currently studying Science at the University of Melbourne and have been a passionate tutor for VCE students ever since.

At Crest Academy, our mission is to provide structured, personalised tutoring that equips students with the skills, strategies, and confidence to excel in VCE English Language. We aim to bridge gaps in understanding, provide high-quality resources, and offer support tailored to each student’s needs.

  • The tutoring helped gave me structure and clarity where the school didn't. The englang curriculum felt much clearer when learning through the AOS summaries than my school's poor, ambiguous slides. The structure that was provided definitely helped me a lot on the exam preparation as well.
