About

Hi, I’m Catherine! I graduated from Manly Selective Campus in 2019 with an ATAR of 99.10 and have completed a double degree of Actuarial Studies and Science. I am a super friendly and passionate tutor who is motivated to making students more confident in the classroom. Over the past 8 years, I have gained over 2000+ hours of tutoring experience and have enjoyed every moment of it.   Throughout the years I have taught children as young as 5 years old, working on fine motor skills and handwriting, to breaking down complex Maths and English concepts to Yr 12 students. My lessons are completely tailored towards each student as the help each person will need changes from week to week. This could include solidifying past areas of concern, working alongside school topics or learning ahead if you are comfortable with current content. Face-to-face lessons are held in a studio in Narraweena, I also offer the option of online lessons via Zoom. I own a valid WWCC. If you wish to get tutored with a friend, hourly rates will be discounted! Please contact me if you have any further questions and I’ll be happy to chat with you :) English Advanced Yr 12 texts: Common mod - 1984 Mod A - Donne and W;t Mod B - KHIV Note: I do not teach Mod C/creative writing

Reviews

Catherine is a highly motivated and professional tutor who has taught my son for 3 years. Her teaching methods were clear and effective while remaining engaging. I am especially impressed by how she could explain a concept in a variety of ways to ensure that the student completely understands the ideas. I would highly recommend Catherine for anyone who is hoping to elevate their academic performance.

Catherine was an amazing maths tutor. She was super patient, knowledgeable and organised. I loved being able to come to lessons with prepared questions, asking to run over topics I was not sure in (whereby she would use her resources to create a lesson plan) or working ahead. She is highly intelligent and flexible; able to adapt to each students learning needs. I could not recommend her more!
Greta (Year 12) on 8th August 2024
Catherine is a great tutor and has helped me tremendously with my maths. She has a great approach to teaching and explains complex concepts in an easy to understand way. She is very straight forward with the way she teaches each individual lesson and makes it fun and interesting to learn every time.

Catherine has been very helpful in allowing me to be more confident at school. She has tutored me across all subjects and has also taught me important study skills and organisational skills. She is very patient and quick to learn my strengths and weaknesses. Her explanations are easy to understand and she teaches in a fun and engaging way. I would definitely recommend her.

Catherine is a patient and attentive tutor who is committed to helping her students improve in maths. Building strong mathematical foundations, working through various question styles, outlining common mistakes and finding different ways to explain complex concepts. I am happy to recommend Cathy.
