UNSW Engineering Tutor Kayla

✳️ About Me: I have 12 years experience as a tutor, including 6 years working as a Mathematics 2IC at tutoring centre (NumberWorks’nWords), study leader at the University of the Sunshine Coast, tutoring marker at Kumon Australia, mentor for the Search for the Next Tech Girl Superhero and a mentor for new students at the University of Queensland. I am 27 years old. In 2016, I graduated from Gosford High (NSW Academically Selective School) with an ATAR of 97.60. In 2020, I graduated from the University of the Sunshine Coast with a Bachelor of Creative Industries (GPA 6.63). I have now returned to uni for a second time, commencing a Bachelor of Mathematics / Engineering (Honours) at UNSW in 2023 Semester 1, before transferring to the University of Queensland to continue my studies in Semester 2, 2023. ✳️About the workshops: Maths tutoring workshops will focus on building core maths skills aligned with the Australian Curriculum. Topics from the current year level (or extension topics) will be presented in an engaging and fun manner with a focus on understanding ‘how’ and ‘why’ the maths works. Multiple strategies for solving the question will be explained, so that students have the opportunity to pick the method that works best for them. All topics can be directly applied to what the student is learning in the classroom, and students are welcome to bring tricky questions from school to the sessions. There are often much simpler ways of solving a question, and topics will be broken down in a straightforward manner. Students regularly provide feedback that sessions are fun and they are enthusiastic about continuing – often they are surprised that maths sessions can be enjoyable. Exam prep strategies and essential skills needed to succeed in exams will also be discussed, as well as addressing common challenge areas for students during exams. ✳️ Cost: - Individual (one-on-one) tutoring: $100/hr - Group Workshops: run by donations My Group Workshops are offered by donation - last year nearly all of my individual sessions were booked out, so this year I have decided to launch group workshops by donations with the intention of making tutoring affordable and accessible to all students - there is now more availability for students to attend and parents can pay what they can afford. My intention is that it will allow students to get the help they need and continue with tutoring over the long term. ✳️Availability: Monday, Tuesday and Friday afternoons  📚 Year 5 - 6 Extension Students Workshop (covering high school content) currently running on Sunday 10am - 11am. ✳️ Location: All workshops are offered online via Zoom in an interactive and engaging format, with maths topics being visually demonstrated using Zoom’s whiteboard feature. Students are also able to write on the whiteboard, allowing collaboration and interactivity throughout the whole lesson. ✳️ Timezone: All times listed are in QLD time (AEST) year round. For students attending from NSW, TAS and VIC, please add one hour to the listed time during term 1 and term 4. All Eastern states are in the same Timezone during term 2 and 3, so timezone difference does not apply during term 2 and term 3.
