Thank you, Missy, for your enquiry. Peter has certainly enjoyed meeting you this morning. He is looking forward to supporting you over the next few months as you gain more confidence with your English skills. Kind regards Anna

We engaged Anna mid last year to support our girls (Yr 5 and Yr7) in their studies while they were also still adapting to a new school; little did we know just how wonderful she would be with the girls. Not only has Anna been on point with identifying and working on areas consistent with their curriculum level, her genuine care for their emotional wellbeing and development is priceless.

Both girls have responded really well to Anna’s approach, enjoy their sessions and are seeing the benefits of having Anna in their corner. It's really comforting to have her beside us on this journey! More...

When I first met Anna I was immediately struck by her incredible energy and enthusiasm! Anna’s capacity to genuinely engage with people, listen to them, to understand and support them makes you feel like your the only person she’s working with.

Anna has a way of navigating through difficult conversations with ease and empathy. Rather than providing a roadmap from where you are to where you want to be Anna takes the time to talk you through issues helping to unpack established perceptions and providing alternative points of views. In the true style of an educator Anna facilitates and supports you on the road to understanding rather than providing definitive answers.

I have no hesitation in recommending Anna as a person of integrity and professionalism in her work but she is also someone whose warmth and compassion will stay with you long after your time with her has finished. More...

Anna has been fantastic to work with, her teaching skills and professionalism has been unbelievable. We really appreciate the time and effort that you have provided.
If you are looking for a tutor, please do not go past Anna, she is absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend her.

Thank you Anna for all your help. More...

Anna is a very nice and flexible person. You will enjoy her classes and she will adapt her own way of teaching to achieve improvements in the English skills that you are looking to enhance. In my particular case, I have improved my listening and speaking skills with a few number of lessons, so I recommend Anna as a excellent English teacher for you. More...

Working with Anna has been wonderful also Anna has helped with a lot of my assignments and encouraged me to be more confident in my work. I have really enjoyed working with Anna as she is always available to assist when I need help. More...

Working with Anna on my CV was an amazing experience. Her ability in getting to know you and highlight strengths and present them effectively is impressive and very insightful. I look forward to working with her in the future! I definitely feel ready to take on my post graduate goals with the help of her services. More...

very good teacher. every time my daughter can not wait to learn with her. always prepare to teach and use some time to tailor made home work for her

We hired Anna to tutor our son, Harry who is in Year 2. She has been absolutely excellent with him. From her initial assessment to her ongoing evaluation, tailored tutoring and constructive feedback and support - Anna's professionalism is simply second to none! Anna's structured and focused approach bespoke to Harry's development needs has shown significant dividends already in the short time that Anna has been tutoring him. Anna has been able to form a connection with Harry and adopt a teaching style that he responds to, resulting in demonstrable advances in his literary proficiency. Anna is a delight to work with and we are certain that Harry's ongoing development is in good hands under her guidance. More...

Thank you Mary for your very kind feedback. What a pleasure it has been to work with you and to witness the great success you are having in your new role!

Anna has been my life coach for a number of years now. She is absolutely incredible. Her attention to detail is unmatched, meaning her advice is expertly tailored to each person she comes across: I've recommended multiple friends to her - each with different needs.

Despite her decades of experience, she helps her clients with humility and understanding. Even if you're her last appointment at the end of a long day, she'll go the extra mile.

Would highly recommend. More...

Thank you Rachel for the many hours we have spent together - I have thoroughly enjoyed them! We have discussed many topics and worked out ways to resolve/approach a problem or concern. Your words of encouragement to me are uplifting! Thank you so very much. Congratulations to you for all your many achievements over the years - I have personally admired the way you have addressed any challenge head on! You are doing so well!

I have known Anna for ten years. She was Head of the Early Learning Centre and Junior School at Tintern Grammar, where I worked as an Early Childhood Educator.

Anna is one of the most dedicated, hardworking and innovative people I have had the privilege of working with in my career. I always find her passion, vision and commitment to teaching, learning and nurturing children both inspiring and contagious.

Anna has very impressive communication skills and effectively engages with children and their parents, teaching staff, and school executive. As a member of Anna’s team, she always sets a clear direction and then works very consultatively with everyone, irrespective of seniority, to achieve goals. I have personally really appreciated and significantly benefitted from Anna’s friendly coaching, mentoring and guidance. She always makes time for people, irrespective of how hectic her schedule is.
Putting aside her impressive qualifications and wealth of experience, Anna is a complete professional and an all-around nice person. Consequently, I strongly recommend and encourage people to engage with Anna if they require wise well-considered advice and a proven ability to deliver outcomes. More...

It was extremely important for me to nail an interview for a much coveted training position. I felt my interview skills were sound, but I needed to ensure I was short listed with an impressive resume and cover letter. It was a highly sort after position with all applicants of a similar high calibre. Anna Riddell had been recommended as someone of integrity and with a passion for the work she does in mentoring those who aspire to further their careers. Anna was instrumental in enabling me to maximise the transferring of my skills into a creative and succinctly written application. Her attention to detail is exceptional. She spent quality time with me at short notice, listening carefully as well as asking very pertinent questions in order to really understand what I had to offer the position. Anna ensured the skills involved in my voluntary community work and sporting pursuits were cleverly woven throughout my application. In fact after I successfully secured my dream job, a Director, who was not a part of the interview panel, asked me directly about my community work when we were introduced for the first time!
Anna is certainly abreast of current thinking and practice in the competitive business world. She is a willing listener and obviously enjoys the work she does. Anna's exceptional organisational skills and attention to detail, along with her astute intuition and creative ideas ensured I had the best opportunity to secure the interview I wanted. I am so very grateful to Anna for her support and mentoring on this particular occasion, resulting in a significant turning point in my life. More...

I have known Anna for the past 5 years and followed with interest her professional career as an educator and leader. When I heard she had then a break I invited her in to help me sort out an administrative matter in my workplace. I described the situation and she listened extremely well. She then within a short period of time came back to me with a creative solution where she offered her skills and expertise along with the idea of helping to recruit, train and setup the person to the on the admin role over a set time period. Not only was it creative thinking, it was realistic and delivered as she had proposed. It was a privilege to work with her creativity, outstanding humour, humility, listening skills and positive approach to even the trickiest of situations. She is well worth a conversation for any project needs. I wish Anna well in her next steps. More...

Anna is an exceptional educational consultant and advisor. She is a specialist in education with a wealth of knowledge and leadership expertise in both the Australian system and overseas. Her leadership style can be defined by humility, integrity and a desire to affirm, yet develop the individual with the aim of personalising the process. I have sought professional advice and direction from Anna on numerous occasions for a myriad of projects and she never ceases to amaze me with her impressive attention to detail, impeccable communication, positive outlook, flexible availability and invaluable advice that always considers multiple viewpoints. She listens with genuine interest, inspires me to seek intelligent insights and challenges me to think both pragmatically, yet creatively in how I approach my projects and planning processes. Through Riddell Consulting Services I feel I have found a reliable and trustworthy life mentor and coach who models the perfect balance of empathy and high expectations to negotiate and deliver on our agreed outcomes, always exceeding my expectations.
