About

Hi! I'm Sophie and I graduated from The Mac.Robertson Girls’ High School in 2018 with an ATAR of 98.80 and completed a Bachelor of Commerce and Computer Science (High Distinction) at Monash University in 2024. With over 3 years (300+ hours) of tutoring experience, I’ve worked with students from primary school to year 12, tailoring every lesson to their pace and goals. This year, I’m offering tutoring in: 🔢 Maths - tailored courses in mathematics for students ranging from year 5 to year 10 💻 Programming - Python, Java, Algorithms & Data Structures 🗣️ English Speaking & Fluency - for ESL learners of any age 🔹 A Bit About Me: - 3+ years of tutoring experience (both 1:1 and group classes) with students from both primary and high school - Industry experience working in tech as a developer - Can speak in English, Chinese Cantonese, Chinese Mandarin in lessons to parents and students - Passionate about helping students grow and gain confidence - Explains difficult concepts in a simple way 📚 What I Offer: 🧮 Maths Tutoring (Years 5–10): I have a set curriculum for every year level from year 5 to year 10 and tailor my teaching to each individual student so that they come out of each lesson with something new learnt each time. Depending on students' preferences, we can: - Cover topics they are currently going through at school - Teach more advanced topics so they can be ahead - Teach topics they are struggling with and want to improve on 💻 Programming & Coding: As someone who started uni without knowing how to code a single line of code to achieving 90+ in my first programming unit at university and moving on to working as a developer, I can tailor courses to absolute beginners according to students' needs. Topics can include basics such as: variables, loops, if/else statements, functions, how to use IDEs etc. To more advanced topics such as: algorithms and data structures, object oriented programming, version control using Git, coding in the terminal and more. Like my style in maths, we can go through a course starting from basics to more advanced programming concepts in Python or Java or I can tailor lessons and topics to students' needs. 🗣️ English Speaking & Fluency: Whether you're a student or adult looking to improve your English, I offer: - Conversational fluency practice - Grammar and sentence structure - Oral presentation coaching - Support for ESL learners at all levels Rates: - 1:1 Tutoring: $60/hour - Group Classes (2–4 students): $35 per person/hour - Lower rates for longer classes (1.5 hours) 📍 Location: I tutor in-person in Mitcham, or nearby suburbs such as Box Hill, Glen Waverley (happy to discuss and commute to other locations), or online from anywhere! 🎯 Whether your goal is to get ahead, catch up, or just feel more confident - I’d love to help you get there. If interested or have any queries, feel free to contact me :) Best of luck for everyone’s studies :)
