Meet the team

Hello! I'm Haoyi. I'm a PhD student in anthropological linguistics, where I study the language and art practices of far northern Australian Aboriginal communities. I love working with students to help them write clearly and succinctly while retaining their own voice. From my own struggles as a student and my experience as a tutor, I will help you avoid common mistakes in academic writing and share strategies to improve. Outside of my PhD, I love coffee, board games, hiking, and going to art galleries. 

Hello, I'm Kavya. I'm a PhD candidate in the Interdisciplinary and Cross-Cultural research program. Although I have a keen interest in a variety of disciplines and fields, I consider myself an ethnographer of all things related to food. I'm passionate about academic writing, especially writing creatively and accessibly. So, I would love to share with you the academic skills and strategies I've gained through trial and error over the years. Let's work together to meet your academic goals! In my spare time, I take delight in ikebana, films, hiking and cooking.

Hello, I am a PhD student researching Chinese religious, intellectual, and political history from the late Qing to the Republic. Trained in the scholastic discipline of Sinology, my academic background is in Chinese Studies (Mandarin) and Translation Studies (Classical Chinese). I have tutored several courses at the ANU and am passionate about helping students develop their critical thinking and academic writing skills. Outside of academia, my interests include playing the harpsichord, drawing, making cocktails, and reading extensively in a broad range of fields.
