About

99.75 ATAR ✨ UNSW Medicine ✨ 4th in State Latin Extension Hey there! I’m Janet, a UNSW Med Student with a passion for teaching. Graduating high school as a School Prefect and Science Captain with a 99.75 ATAR and State Rank in Latin Extension (4th in State). I specialise in tutoring Year 11-12 students Latin (Continuers and Extension), Mathematics (Advanced, Extension 1, Extension 2), English (Advanced and Extension) as well as the UCAT. 📊WHY CHOOSE ME AS A TUTOR📊 Since I was young, I was always fascinated in the power of connection in learning. By focusing on understanding core concepts, breaking them down and seeing how they related to each other, I was able to study more efficiently and prioritise key insights. My love for the languages led me to study on a 100% Academic Scholarship at SCEGGS Darlinghurst where I was able to maintain a balance between academics, sports, debating and socialising. After graduating, I shared this philosophy with my students, emphasising the importance of making connections with their subjects on a deeper level and truly enjoying the process of learning. To see if I'm the right fit for you, book a FREE ONE-TO-ONE STUDY SKILLS CONSULTATION with me ✅ ⭐ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTS⭐ - Latin: Ranked 1st in both Continuers and Extension, achieving a Latin State Rank with a mark of 49/50 - Mathematics: Ranked 1st in Maths Advanced (Accelerated), 2nd in Maths Extension 1, 3rd in Maths Extension with HSC mark of 98 and Top HSC Bands respectively

Janet is an absolute treasure. She is a great communicator and very diligent. My son’s Latin marks have gone from 80% to 94% in his last exam. Janet is patient, kind and is very knowledgeable and across the subject. My son is amazed by her skill and fluency. She is very thorough when going through material, she has very detailed resources and always highly prepared for a session. I highly recommend her, she is brilliant.

Janet is an amazing tutor, she's super dedicated and patient. She tailors her content to whatever you need help with so you can really target your weak points and she checks in on your progress to make sure you're on track. She's also a really nice person so you never feel judged when you make a mistake or don't know how to answer a question which makes the class environment very comfortable to be in. I highly recommend her as a tutor!

Janet has been tutoring my daughter in Latin for about 8 month and we couldn't be more impressed! Her teaching materials are meticulously organized, with clear lesson plans, targeted exercises, and thoughtful feedbacks that build confidence step-by-step. If you want a tutor who combines expertise with genuine care, Janet is exceptional!

Janet has been tutoring me in Maths Extension 2 this year and has really helped improve both my approach to questions and my confidence in answering them. She's really patient and explains complex concepts in different ways until they make sense. Our lessons are always focused, and I’ve seen clear improvements in both my confidence and results.

It is with great pleasure that I recommend Janet as an exceptional Latin tutor. Janet possesses a rare blend of "patience and constructive strictness" that creates an ideal learning environment. She sets high expectations while providing unwavering support, ensuring students grasp complex grammatical concepts without feeling overwhelmed. Her structured approach instills discipline while fostering genuine enthusiasm for Latin. Under Janet’s guidance, my daughter’s confidence and proficiency in Latin have flourished. She masterfully balances academic rigor with empathy, adapting her methods to suit individual learning styles while maintaining high standards. Janet is not only a skilled educator but also a mentor who genuinely invests in her students’ success. I wholeheartedly endorse Janet for any academic or tutoring role. She is reliable, passionate, and deeply committed to her students’ growth.

Janet is one of the most dedicated, driven, and thoughtful people I know. Not only does she know and understand the content thoroughly, she cares deeply about inspiring the same passion within others, something I’ve experienced countless times over the years as she has helped me with subjects such as maths and latin. Not only that, she is thoughtful and patient, and explains concepts and ideas clearly. I can confidently say that Janet is both an exceptional tutor and human being.
