About Your Tutor

Hi there! I’m Ria Dunn. Founder of Mindful Tuition. 

I've been tutoring students in English, Maths and exam preparation for quite some time now. My passion for teaching started while studying English Literature at university, where it quickly became my happy place, sharing my knowledge and passion with children and watching them succeed.

My mission as a tutor is to create an inspiring and engaging learning space in each lesson, bringing a holistic approach to learning. I believe that a successful lesson starts with focus and awareness of the present moment.

This is why I have integrated the foundations of mindfulness into my teaching, as I believe that being mindful is key to academic success and overall well-being.

Rather than just focusing on achieving excellent grades, I believe tuition should help build up children's confidence so that they can become lifelong learners. Although exams are a crucial part of the education system, they can cause tremendous stress and anxiety for students. While understanding their importance, I strive to build strong self-confidence in children to succeed beyond the exam paper.

I wanted to create a tuition service that anchors students' attention to the present moment, equipping them with relevant knowledge and skillsets to better their academic abilities while allowing them to gain confidence in themselves.
