About Cynthia
Hi there! My name is Cynthia, and I am currently a Postgraduate student at the University of Melbourne with a First Class Honors average. My academic journey is rooted in the Victorian education system (VCE), having graduated from one of the leading private schools in Melbourne, Korowa Anglican Girls’ School, with an ATAR of 96.55.
I understand the pressure of the VCE system firsthand. My strongest subjects were Chinese First Language (Study Score: 48) and Japanese Second Language (Study Score: 46), where I was honored to be the Dux of my school. These results reflect a deep, technical understanding of what it takes to excel in both SACs and final examinations.
Over the past 5 years, I have dedicated more than 600+ hours to tutoring students across primary, secondary, and VCE levels. I take immense pride in my students' success; many have gone on to achieve 40+ study scores and 95+ ATAR results.
My approach goes beyond mere content delivery. I focus on:
- Strategic Exam Preparation: Teaching students how to interpret marking rubrics and avoid common pitfalls.
- Trilingual Communication: I am fluent in English, Chinese, and Japanese, allowing me to explain complex linguistic nuances in whichever language the student feels most comfortable.
- Mentorship: I believe students perform best when they feel understood. I place a strong emphasis on building the confidence and motivation necessary to unlock their full academic potential.
Whether you are a VCE student aiming for a top-tier score, a primary student building a foundation, or an adult learner exploring a new language, I am committed to providing a structured, supportive, and highly effective learning environment.

- Personalised Lesson Plans: Identifying specific gaps in knowledge to build a structured path toward 40+ study scores and 95+ ATARs.
- Confidence & Motivation: Beyond academics, I empower students to feel supported, ensuring they perform their best under pressure.
- Trilingual Support: Lessons can be conducted in English, Chinese, or Japanese to ensure maximum comfort and clarity.
