About Makayla
Hello! I’m Makayla — a graduate of the Australian Catholic University and a qualified Secondary teacher with experience teaching across both primary and secondary year levels. I’m passionate about helping students feel confident, capable, and supported in their learning. I believe that every student can succeed with the right guidance, encouragement and structure. My teaching approach focuses on meeting learners where they are, identifying their strengths, and breaking down skills into clear, manageable steps. I aim to make lessons both engaging and purposeful, so students stay motivated and proud of their progress. I bring a calm, patient and organized teaching style, shaped by real classroom experience and ongoing work with students from Prep to Year 10. Whether a student needs help with reading, writing, essay skills, text analysis, Humanities content, or general organization and study habits, I tailor each lesson to suit their goals. As a teacher and a mom, I understand the importance of flexibility, communication and creating a positive, supportive environment. My aim is to build genuine confidence in students — not just for one assessment, but long-term. I would love the opportunity to work with your child and help them grow academically and personally.

My lessons are personalized, structured, and designed to build confidence in a supportive environment. I use a mix of explicit teaching, guided practice, and interactive discussion to help students understand concepts deeply and apply them independently. A typical lesson runs for 45–60 minutes, depending on the student’s age and focus needs (this can be altered). Each session includes a brief warm-up, targeted skill development, guided practice, and a short reflection or summary at the end. I can also provide optional follow-up tasks or revision activities on request. I am a qualified Secondary teacher with additional experience teaching across Prep to Year 10 in both primary and secondary settings. My background allows me to support students with English, Humanities, literacy, reading comprehension, writing skills, and general study habits. My lessons are suitable for: • Primary students (Prep–Year 6) needing support or extension in English • Secondary students (Years 7–10) wanting help with writing, text analysis, essay skills, or study skills • Students preparing for assessments or needing help staying organized and confident • Learners who benefit from patient, encouraging teaching tailored to their pace and ability My goal is to make learning enjoyable, manageable, and meaningful, with clear progress each session.

Makayla is a highly qualified and knowledgeable teacher who shared their experience with me as a colleague and supporting family members. Makayla works hard to ensure the best interests of their students.
I have worked with Makayla for two years as her colleague at our school. She is an empathetic and dedicated English teacher who builds strong, positive relationships with her students. Makayla is highly skilled at differentiating learning and scaffolding tasks to suit the individual needs of each student.
One experience that stands out is when we worked together to support a student who was struggling across multiple subjects. Makayla took the time to break down tasks, offer one-on-one support, and rebuild the student’s confidence through clear explanations and genuine encouragement. Her impact on that student was incredible.
I highly recommend Makayla to Superprof members because she is patient, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to helping every student succeed. She brings empathy, clarity, and passion to her teaching, making her an outstanding English educator.View more recommendations
