About

Professional tutor with close to 10 years of tutoring experience (Maths and English upto year 10). All levels and abilities including special needs (autism, ADHD, anxiety…). Online tutoring only with limited spots left! For every 10 lessons completed in a term, the 11th lesson is FREE!* Hi there, my name is Anna and I thoroughly enjoy teaching and helping students improve at school. To me, tutoring is more than just helping students with their schoolwork, it’s about equipping students with life-long skills. In essence, tutoring helps shape the future one student at a time. It gives me great satisfaction when I see my students improve their grades as well as grow more confident in their abilities. About me: • About 10 years of tutoring experience having taught over 150 students in both primary and high school (upto year 10) in both mathematics and English (all levels). • Taught a variety of students from struggling students to highly gifted learners - This includes special needs like autism, ADHD, anxiety, auditory processing disorder (to name a few). • I’m a very friendly, patient, encouraging and understanding person. • Have a psychology background • Dedicated tutor; we work together as a team to achieve your goals. • Genuine passion for helping students reach their full academic potential and continue to be life-long learners. What makes tutoring successful?  Having customised lessons to suit each student's learning needs -> All students are unique individuals who require a style of learning that is specifically designed to bring out their best.  Communication including actively listening to students and parents.  Offering study strategies that students can incorporate when studying -> handy hints and tricks (which students love!).  Simplifying the content so that students actually understand it and grow to appreciate it.  Building confidence in students’ abilities; mindset is vital. Why choose me?  Apart from my extensive tutoring experience, passion, dedication, knowledge, psychology background and patient nature, I offer something that other tutors don’t. To show my dedication to each student, I’m offering for every 10 hours of tutoring your child completes in a term, the 11th LESSON IS COMPLETELY FREE* (contact me for more details). Feel free to use this lesson however you please; be it to catch-up on a topic, staying ahead of class, studying for upcoming exams or any other reasons.  I am more than happy to explain the content numerous different ways until a student fully understands it. This is done in a non-judgemental way as there's no such thing as a silly question!  Alongside teaching the content from school, I work on the psychological side of things to increase students' confidence in their abilities, which can influence their grades.  Lessons are conducted 100% online -> saves time, saves petrol, students feel comfortable in their homes, lessons are interactive, in a digital age there is no more losing homework!  Quality lessons at a great price!  WWCC to ensure safety and peace of mind. Prices: • $60 per hour for primary maths or English • $70 per hour for high school maths or English • Note: lessons are one hour which includes 5 minutes of verbal feedback after the 55-minute lesson is completed. • For 2-hour lessons, a discount applies 😊 Some examples of student academic achievements/progress: • Taught student from year 7 to 10 maths and English -> in the beginning she was sitting on a C grade. After two terms of working with her, she achieved an A grade in her report. On top of this, she finished top of her class! Mum was very happy! • Currently teaching a home-schooled student both maths and English who is in year 7 -> when I started teaching him last year, he was lacking confidence, suffered from anxiety and cognitive processing disorder, after about a month of working with him, he had grown in confidence and was participating in the lessons more. Mum and student very grateful. • Currently teaching a student (maths and English) who is in year 2 who has been diagnosed with ADHD and mild autism -> mum has recently informed me that her daughter is now in front of her peers in English while she is on par with her peers in maths. Another success story! • Another student I’m currently teaching from a different state, is a mathematics prodigy -> he is in year 5 and currently working through year 9 level mathematics! He thoroughly enjoys these difficult questions (especially algebra and equations) as well as the tips and tricks shown. Another very happy student 😊 My tutoring philosophy: I truly believe that if students practise, believe in themselves and have consistent individualised lessons (to suit their needs and abilities) they can achieve their full potential. If you share the same philosophy, I look forward to tutoring you as I believe together, we can achieve consistent progress in a positive and supportive environment. Feel free to contact me to help your child as I’m very confident we can achieve the results you are after.
