High Quality Tutoring from Cambridge Master's Graduate

Hello! My name is Amy and I am an English Tutor with 6 years of experience equipping high school students to best meet their potential in their study of English.

English teachers and students of the humanities are often asked why the study of English matters in the real world. There is a clear answer for this: in an age of AI, disinformation and polarisation, it has never been more important to know how to think, argue and communicate. The ability to think creatively and critically, to form an argument, and to understand the nuances of a text is crucial in academic, professional and personal settings.

I recently graduated from the University of Cambridge with a Master of Philosophy in Theology, having completed my bachelor's degree in English and sociology at the University of Sydney in 2022. At USYD, I was named a Dalyell Scholar as well as being included on the Dean's List for Academic Excellence.

In my work with students, I am passionate about understanding the unique set of needs and abilities of the individual, with the aim of equipping them with the skills necessary to thrive in their subject. My goal for each student is that would not only meet the requirements of their subject, but feel empowered to think critically and creatively, speak eloquently and write incisively, understanding the importance of clarity and nuance in language in both their personal and academic development.

I aim to share my passion for literature, language and ideas with my students, along with the skills and knowledge I have gained through my own diverse studies. My hope is that they would emerge from my lessons feeling a sense of clarity, enthusiasm and confidence in their work.
