Cindy
Hey there! My name is Cindy and I'd love to be your tutor and study companion, supporting you through your school journey. I have 4+ years of extensive experience working with hundreds of students over 1500+ hours over different tuition centres. I have tutored across year levels and for students from diverse backgrounds, guiding them through their learning journey in English and Maths.
I graduated from high school with an ATAR of 99.55, and I hold a Bachelors degree in Philosophy and Sociology at the University of Melbourne. I also hold a Certificate in Public Policy Analysis at London School of Economics and Political Science. I am currently studying a Specialisation Certificate in Methods and Statistics in Social Sciences from the University of Amsterdam to further my mathematical and analytical skills! I use my humanities research skills in my volunteer roles as researcher at Darling Downs Environment Council and a Research Assistant at Cancer Council.
I pride myself in my expertise in both English and Maths. My favourite part of English is to analyse different texts, before forming original ideas and putting them succinctly and coherently into a well-written essay. I would love to share with you my essay writing techniques and strategies, and in particular, my insights into why you don't have to love reading/thinking creatively/writing essays to be able to get a top score in an analytical essay!
Apart from English, I am an experienced Mathematics curriculum resource writer, editor, content developer, as well as product manager. I was a junior maths textbook author for Edrolo, and a maths associate product manager for Cengage, working on their senior maths textbooks both in Victoria and nationally. I have also consulted for ClickView, written curriculum-aligning resources for Forest Learning, and written for international publications such as Swun Math from the US.
I am also an experienced tutor for scholarship and selective exams, having tutored numerous students who gained entry to selective schools and obtained scholarships, as well as written scholarship practice exams and worked solutions myself.
Throughout my journey working in the maths education sector, I strongly believe that with the right resources, support and encouragement, every single student can ace maths. I would love to have a chat with you and tell you everything about how to do well in maths.
Can't wait to have a chat with you!
