About Makayla
Experienced Youth Mentor with Strong Academic Results
Makayla is a high-achieving university student who finished school with an ATAR above 90 and is now studying Public Health with consistently strong marks. She brings this academic discipline into her tutoring, helping students understand how to break down complex ideas into manageable steps. Having mentored Year 11 students in a non-ATAR pathway, she is used to supporting teenagers with very different learning needs and confidence levels, making her a steady guide for both primary and high school learners.
Proven Classroom & Small-Group Teaching Experience
This tutor has hands-on teaching experience as a volunteer Scripture teacher for primary students in Years 1–4, planning lessons, managing behaviour and explaining abstract ideas in simple, engaging ways. She has also worked as a health mentor, running sessions that help older students set goals and stay motivated. These roles have given her practical skills in explaining concepts clearly, asking the right questions, and keeping students focused while still feeling comfortable and heard.
Empathetic Communicator Who Builds Confidence
Makayla is known for her empathetic patience and ability to build strong relationships, developed through mentoring programs and community volunteering with disadvantaged and elderly groups. She uses these people skills in tutoring by creating a calm, encouraging atmosphere where students feel safe to make mistakes and ask questions. She likes to personalise sessions, helping students find study techniques that suit them, whether that is step-by-step problem solving in maths or structured planning and feedback for English writing tasks.
