About Kira
I am a Year 10 student at Balwyn High School, where I serve as a Student Ambassador, STEP Leader, and Tutorial Captain. These roles involve mentoring younger students and assisting with the transition to secondary school. Having attended Balwyn North Primary (IB) and now Balwyn High, I have a firsthand understanding of the academic expectations in the local area.
Outside of school, I play the piano and cello, which has taught me the value of persistence and consistent practice. I also stay active through badminton and yoga to maintain a balanced and organized schedule. I bring this same hardworking and professional approach to my tutoring, helping primary students build the skills and confidence needed to get ahead for Year 7.
