Bio

I am a diligent, high achieving individual who gets great joy out of seeing students excel academically. In my free time, I love to row boats, ride horses and keep a healthy and active lifestyle.

I’m able to break down bigger concepts into simpler components, in order to allow for the student to deeply understand the subject that they’re studying. I truly believe anyone can achieve anything if they just have the right foundations in their knowledge base- which is something I always ensure. I am not an intimidating person and constantly encourage questioning. Question, question, question!

I am an avid enthusiast of the English Language. So, whether one needs assistance in writing a brilliant speech or needs extra guidance in the language and literature components of English, I am able to assist students in achieving their best mark.

Despite not taking History at University, I still avidly soak up any information History-orientated and love to help others excel in the subject as well. During school, I thrived in History and most certainly know how to write a cracking essay!

Reviews from others

“Samantha is patient and engaging which is exactly what our son needs. ”

Jacqui

“Samantha has engaged Christina in her lessons - this is usually tricky, as Christina appears to comply but she is actually a million miles away. She really enjoys Sam’s young and fun approach. She seems to make learning “cool” Sam is good at getting Christina to prep for lessons and gives her great advice on how to do that. ”
