Welcome to
Griffith Tutoring Centre
My own love of learning began early when, only a school student myself, I suddenly found myself chasing academic success at every opportunity. I followed this passion as a young woman by completing an integrated Bachelor of Education (Secondary) / Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Masters in Social Change and Development (Organisational Leadership and Capacity Building) at the University of Newcastle, Australia.
​
My early career brought me to Griffith in regional New South Wales, where I was employed for five years by the NSW Department of Education to teach a large variety of secondary subjects at what is now Murrumbidgee Regional High School. I functioned as Administrator for the Distance Education and Aurora College programs. In addition, I mentored HSC students, built educational resources, provided assessment advice and facilitated study skills workshops within a school-based senior tutorial centre for a number of years.
​
In more recent years, I have worked as a private Academic Tutor at a well-established local tutoring centre, and facilitated regular adult training sessions as part of a federal government employment preparation program. Currently, I am completing a Certificate IV in TESOL through QLD Tafe so that I will be better able to assist English language learners.
​
Griffith Tutoring Centre was born in 2020 out of my desire to nurture and support student learning within a high-quality, individually-focused environment. It is my belief that through our unique, specially tailored, small-group tutoring sessions, Griffith Tutoring Centre is able to provide students with opportunities not always available to them within a standard school setting.

Caitlin - Primary Tutor
Caitlín’s passion for teaching began at a very young age when she worked as a camp leader on language immersion camps in Ireland.
Caitlín graduated with an International Bachelor of Arts degree, with double honours in Irish and Spanish, from Maynooth University in 2016. During her time at there, she also spent a year working as an English Teacher in a primary school in Spain. Caitlin then continued on to study a Professional Masters in Education at The National University of Ireland, Galway. She graduated with honours in 2018.
Since then, Caitlín has been employed as both a Primary Teacher and a High School Teacher, teaching a wide range of subjects both in Ireland and here in Australia. She is currently residing in Griffith and working locally as a High School Teacher.
Caitlín looks forward to assisting the students at Griffith Tutoring Centre to build their confidence in learning and reach their academic goals.

D'Ella - Junior Administrative Assistant
D’Ella is a graduating Year 12 student at Murrumbidgee Regional Highschool. She has joined the team at Griffith Tutoring Centre to gain work experience during her gap year. D’Ella’s role includes child-minding, customer service and administrative duties.
​
D’Ella aspires to become an educator of young children and is currently completing a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education at Griffith TAFE. Later, she plans to complete her Bachelor’s Degree. D’Ella’s passion for early child education is longstanding. A child’s smile when they have learnt something new makes a small difference in her world and she hopes that in becoming an educator she can do the same for the children she works with.
​
D’Ella’s personal goals for the year include studying her other passion, professional makeup, by completing a course at the Australian Beauty School, and saving money to travel overseas with friends before eventually moving to Wollongong to begin adult life.
