About Me
I'm Kanika, a passionate and patient English tutor based in Newcastle, Australia, currently completing my Bachelor of Science in Biology at the University of Newcastle. With an IELTS band score of 7.5 and a bilingual Hindi-English background, I bring both formal proficiency and personal understanding to every lesson — I know firsthand what it takes to master English as a second language.
Availability
I am available 7 days a week, from 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM AEST. I am flexible and happy to discuss scheduling to suit your needs.
How to Contact Me
The best way to reach me is through the Tutoroo messaging platform. I respond promptly and am happy to answer any questions before booking your first lesson.
Location & Meeting Preferences
I offer home tuition at your location, making lessons convenient and comfortable for you. Online lessons are also available for students outside Newcastle.
My Specialisations
My two core areas of expertise are English and Biology, making me ideal for:
Students looking to improve everyday English conversation and fluency
IELTS exam preparation
High school and university-level Biology
Academic writing and comprehension skills
Why I Love Tutoring
Having navigated the journey of learning English as a non-native speaker myself, I genuinely enjoy helping others build confidence and find their voice in a new language. Seeing a student go from hesitant to fluent is incredibly rewarding. I bring the same passion to Biology — breaking down complex scientific concepts into simple, digestible ideas is something I do every day in my own studies.
My Approach
I believe every student learns differently. My lessons are tailored to your individual goals, learning style, and pace. I focus on building confidence first — because when you feel comfortable, learning happens naturally.
How I Structure Lessons
First lesson: getting to know you, assessing your current level, and identifying your goals
Ongoing lessons: a mix of structured exercises, real-life conversation practice, and targeted grammar or vocabulary work
Regular feedback and progress check-ins to keep you motivated
Resources I Use
I draw on a variety of resources including grammar workbooks, IELTS preparation materials, vocabulary exercises, and real-world English content such as articles and videos to keep lessons engaging and relevant.
Levels I Teach
Primary School
High School (all levels)
Senior High School & Entrance Exams (including IELTS)
University level (English communication & Biology)

One Last Thing
