Verified Tutor
What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy connecting with students and seeing their confidence grow when they finally understand something that seemed difficult at first. During my time volunteering with Ain Society in Singapore, I helped kids with cancer with their homework and discovered how fulfilling it is to make learning a positive experience for someone. I also love helping my younger sister with her math homework, it reminds me how meaningful it is to guide someone and watch them succeed.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I would say my biggest strengths as a tutor are patience and empathy. I take time to understand where a student is struggling and explain concepts in a way that makes sense to them. I'm also good at encouraging students and keeping them motivated, which helps them stay engaged and enjoy learning rather than feeling pressured.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is build the student's confidence and independence. It's not just about solving problems for them, but teaching them how to think critically so they can solve future problems on their own. A tutor should also create a safe and encouraging environment where the students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. I believe that is how real learning happensTutoring students in 👦 👧

About Anushka
About My Studies
I’m a third-year Computer Science student at UNSW, originally from Singapore. I’m especially interested in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and hope to go into UI/UX design in the future. I enjoy learning how people interact with technology and how a good design can make systems easier and more enjoyable to use. One of my favourite courses has been Cybersecurity (COMP6441), which helped me build strong problem-solving and analytical skills. Studying computer science has taught me how to break down complex ideas and explain them clearly, which I find really helpful when tutoring.
About Me Outside Of Uni
Outside of uni, I’m a pretty creative person. I love playing the piano, painting, and dancing whenever I get the chance. I’m also a big fan of movies and TV shows, and I enjoy reading thriller novels in my free time. Some of my favourite moments are simple ones, like sunrise walks at Coogee, spending time with friends, or just relaxing after a long day.
A Bit More About Me
I’ve also trained in taekwondo and reached red belt with a black tip, which taught me discipline and persistence. I enjoy challenging myself and learning new things, whether it’s in academics or everyday life. As a tutor, I aim to be friendly, patient, and supportive, and I want students to feel comfortable asking questions and learning at their own pace.

Demir showed a lot of improvement with multiplying and dividing algebraic fractions and was able to work through these questions with much less help than before.
Demir showed a lot of improvement with multiplying and dividing algebraic fractions and was able to work through these questions with much less help than before.
Demir still finds factorising quadratic expressions where the coefficient of x^2 is greater than one more difficult. Going back through the worksheets and working we have completed in class will help him remember the steps and become more confident with these questions.
Demir is getting much faster at completing the standard questions and is becoming more confident with the methods we have been practising over the last few classes.
Demir is getting much faster at completing the standard questions and is becoming more confident with the methods we have been practising over the last few classes.
Demir is confident when completing questions that are similar to ones we have already practised, but sometimes finds it harder to apply the same concepts to more difficult or unfamiliar questions. We have started working through more challenging questions together so that he can practise recognising which methods to use in different situations.

Demir completed the algebra work well and has also been consistent with completing the homework given to him between classes. This has helped us get through a large amount of revision and finish the algebra topics we were working on.
When we work through a difficult question together, Demir would benefit from going back over the working after class so that he remembers how the question was approached. This is particularly important for topics such as factorising quadratics where x^2 has a coefficient, as it will help him attempt similar questions independently the next time.
Demir was quite confident with the equation questions and was able to apply the methods well once we had gone through the relevant theory.
Demir was quite confident with the equation questions and was able to apply the methods well once we had gone through the relevant theory.
Demir would benefit from revising the methods for any questions that he initially finds difficult after we go through them together. This will help him remember the steps when he sees a similar question again rather than having to relearn the method.
