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 :)
