Education
www.inspiredenglishtutoring.com I graduated university with a Bachelor of Education (Secondary), majoring in English. I know and understand the competitiveness of NSW’s top students and excel in modelling and teaching inspiring creative writing pieces and deeply analytical essays. I’ve taught at high achieving private schools such as Ascham and St Catherine’s. On the other end of the spectrum, I have taught at a disadvantaged and behaviourally challenging public school, Granville Boys High School. Bringing out the best in the most disengaged children has also brought out the best in me as a teacher. The breadth of my experiences has taught me two things: every child learns differently and the HSC takes work, a lot of work.
Experience
I am an English teacher who teaches differently. I apply a combination of fun and authentic learning to achieve exemplary results. Inspired English Tutoring provides personalised and student-focused short courses that employs inspiration and simplicity in the face of the HSC. I have designed the workshops with over 10 years teaching experience in private and public schools, tutoring and professional training for Standard, Advanced English and Extension English. I have represented student bodies and been requested for practicum at Sydney’s top private Schools. During university, I was invited to meet the then Prime Minister, Julia Gillard and Education Minister, Peter Garrett to discuss the state of university education for high school teachers.
