4.5  (1 student review)

As an academic, musician, teacher and mother of two adult children, I have enjoyed supporting students to achieve their full potential for over 25 years. With a friendly and personal approach, I encourage students to fulfil their potential by introducing effective study techniques and developing unique study plans.

I hold a Masters degree via research thesis from the University of Queensland, a Bachelor of Music (performance and teaching) - Queensland Conservatorium, Griffith University and was awarded an AMusA on the cello. I hold a current Blue card and maintain strict levels of professionalism following government guidelines in relation to working with children.

Tutoring sessions involve one-on-one teaching and support with clear guidelines and attention to detail. I am available to teach from 4.30pm on weekdays and on weekends at a rate of $100/hour.
