About Catherine
Passionate Educator Committed to Student Success
I am dedicated to helping students positively engage with their work and achieve high results! Recognising that the classroom can be a competitive and daunting environment, my mission is to alleviate this by focusing on each student's unique areas of improvement, providing personalised guidance beyond the generalised education of school lessons.
Over the past two years as a part-time tutor, I have had the pleasure of working closely with a diverse range of students, each at different educational and confidence levels. I find it incredibly important to build strong relationships with my students. By understanding their unique personalities, learning styles, and interests, I can tailor my teaching methods to suit their individual needs. This personal connection not only fosters a positive learning environment but also helps me guide them towards academic success with empathy and encouragement.
My High School Experience:
I cherished my high school journey, which was greatly enriched by the support of a dedicated tutor. Although I faced anxiety in exam contexts, I overcame this challenge by mastering time management and familiarising myself with exam procedures, transforming these skills into a strong academic foundation. In 2022, I was ranked 7/111 amongst my cohort in English Advanced.
Teacher's Praise:
"Catherine is an extremely hard-working and dedicated student who consistently demonstrates her diligence in English Advanced. Her imaginative assessment task was outstanding, showcasing her ability to write engaging, creative, and insightful reflective texts." — HSC English Teacher (2022)
My University Experience:
After receiving my High School Certificate in September 2022, I embarked on a Bachelor of Criminology at Macquarie University. University life has been an immensely rewarding experience, where I continue to excel academically while exploring my passion for criminal justice.
Tutoring Experience:
From 2017 to 2022, I tutored 13 students across both primary and high school levels, proudly witnessing their high band results. My role as an Academic Personal Trainer (APT) with "A Team Tuition" in 2022 has further honed my holistic tutoring approach and 'growth mindset' philosophy. I am also experienced in tutoring students on the autism spectrum, tailoring my methods to meet their individual needs. Since this work experience, I have branched out and started my own tutoring business, where I continue to admire working closely with six wonderful students ranging from Years 1 to 12. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing their self-esteem, academic confidence, and grades grow!
Police Check:
I have a valid NSW 'care, instruction and supervision' police check since September 2022, available on request.

Welcome to Engaging and Effective K-12 English Tutoring!
“Catherine is awesome. My daughter's confidence in her abilities has increased. Catherine's methodical and constructive approach to teaching means my daughter learns something invaluable every lesson.” — Parent of a Year 7 Student (2023)
Tailored to Distinct Learning Needs:
I recognise that each student has unique learning styles. My lessons are customised to meet your child's specific needs, ensuring they grasp key concepts effectively. For example, if your child struggles with essay writing, I will break down the structure, teach them how to develop strong arguments, and guide them in using effective evidence and analysis. By focusing on their individual challenges, I help build their confidence and improve their skills.
Comprehensive Resources:
All learning tools are organised within the Google Suite, including Google Classroom, Drive, Docs, and Slides. This ensures easy access for both students and parents. Online lessons are conducted via Zoom, utilising an interactive whiteboard and seamless screen sharing. Over the past two years, I have rigorously organised my learning resources, including an extensive collection of worksheets, exam papers (with feedback and annotations), flashcards, and detailed notes — all of which can be streamed directly to your child.
Support Beyond Lessons:
I am committed to providing ongoing support beyond our scheduled sessions. This includes marking student work, offering assessment guidance with exemplars, responding to queries via email, curating new resources according to each student’s level, and structuring future lessons to ensure continuous progress.
Flexible Lesson Duration:
I recommend at least one hour per session for optimal concentration but am flexible to accommodate individual needs. I am available online via Zoom or in-person.

Catherine has been a remarkable tutor for our daughter. Catherine immediately built rapport and identified ways to work best with her. Catherine built our daughter’s confidence and the results were evident as she progressed through to higher grades and even awards! I would highly reccomend Catherine as a tutor.
She is a open and helpful tutor packed with great recourses and topics to learn about. I was originally not sure how helpful I would find this tutoring program, but throughout this term I can visually see a difference and a change in my confidence. This is all thanks to Catherine.

Catherine is a hard-working and diligent worker. She performed exceptionally in legal studies, business studies and English advanced throughout high school. She makes a great tutor as she builds strong relationships with her students, which makes them comfortable to ask questions. She is a helpful, friendly and smart tutor.
Cate is a super friendly and kind person, who makes revision a lot more manageable, especially with exam preparations. She links complex concepts much more understandable by elaborating, and relating it to everyday concepts.
My results had improved so much over the course of two years, thanks to her! 10/10 recommend.See more recommendations
