Sarah is passionate about imbuing students with confidence and curiosity, and thereby enabling them to achieve their full potential as self-directed learners. Sarah works with students to extend their knowledge beyond the simple basics of the curriculum, shaping a well-rounded understanding of all subject material, whether this be the literary contexts of English texts or the historical developments foregrounding contemporary economic conditions. This allows students to write and perform with an unparalleled level of sophistication and achievement. Sarah fosters a tutoring environment that is encouraging, open, and honest, allowing students to feel comfortable in their learning and addressing all challenges promptly and efficiently, ultimately providing for consistent and holistic improvement.

Sarah enjoys studying a wide range of disciplines within her degree, aligning with a general interest in deeply examining the forces and processes at work in the world around her, whether these be the machinations of global politics or the intricacies of financial markets.
In her spare time, Sarah enjoys various team sports, exploring Melbourne, and listening to live music. She is an avid reader, her favourite authors include Joan Didion, Rachel Cusk, and Sylvia Plath. Sarah is actively involved in college life at Queen’s, participating in intercollegiate sports and competing in public speaking competitions.
We were extremely fortunate to have contacted Premier Tutors when our daughter in year 12 became ill this year. They unexpectedly organised 2 high-quality tutors for Maths Extension 1 and 2, and English Advanced and Extension immediately so my daughter was able to quickly cover the content she had missed and get back on track. The tutors, Sarah and Ana were perfectly matched with my daughter’s personality and they had the knowledge and materials to support her. As a high-performing student, the support she was provided by her tutors who had already achieved the same goals that she had was invaluable.Her tutors remained with her until the completion of her HSC due to the constant reassurance, support and direction that they were able to provide. This increased her confidence immeasurably and she felt well-prepared to tackle any of the questions that came her way in the exams. Premier Tutors are highly professional and responsive to changing needs and provide a personalised approach to learning, whilst also providing consistent and constructive feedback. I highly recommend Premier Tutors as they have clearly employed and trained their tutors appropriately and their lessons were always productive.
