About Your Tutor
Hi there! I’m Ria Dunn. Founder of Mindful Tuition.
My love for teaching began when I was studying English Literature at university. It quickly became my happy place—sharing my knowledge and passion with students and seeing them succeed has always been such a rewarding experience.
Since then, I’ve been tutoring students in English, Maths, and exam preparation, with the goal of creating an inspiring and engaging space for every lesson. I truly believe that the best lessons happen when we’re focused and fully in the 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 both within and beyond the exam paper.
I wanted to create a tutoring service that helps students really focus on the present moment, so they can fully engage with what they’re learning. By giving them the right tools and knowledge to improve their academic skills, I aim to create a supportive space where they can also build confidence in themselves. My goal is not just to help students succeed academically but to encourage them to enjoy learning and feel proud of their progress.
