Summary
With extensive experience tutoring Year 12 students since 2019, I have developed a strong ability to tailor learning strategies based on individual student characteristics. My background in psychology allows me to integrate mindfulness and stress management techniques into education, helping students improve both academic performance and well-being. This combination of teaching experience and psychological insight makes me well-suited for a high school placement. Moreover, with fluency in English, Mandarin and Japanese, I can effectively support a diverse student population, including international students who may face language barriers.
