About Misha
Kia ora! I’m an NZ-trained and registered secondary teacher with 3+ years of experience, currently working at a high school here in Christchurch. I specialise in English Literature and Media Studies, and I love helping students make sense of everything from classic texts and film analysis to modern media.
My goal is simple: to make the material practical, relevant, and easy to digest so learning happens easily and quickly.
What Parents, Students & Colleagues Say:
Writing Confidence: "Hey Miss Degenhardt, I just wanted to say thank you for being a great teacher, and most of all, thank you for all the help you’ve given me these past few months. I definitely feel way more confident with my writing, and I don’t think I would’ve made it here without your help." — Sylvia (Year 10)
Making Hard Subjects Easy: "I just wanted to say thank you for being a great teacher. English literature is a subject that I am interested in but not the best at, and you helped me improve largely... When you stepped in everything changed, you outwardly tried to teach the class, making the subject a whole lot easier. Thanks a lot." — James (Year 11 NCEA)
From School Leadership: "You've consistently gone the extra mile for your Ako class, and you've built strong relationships with them and also been proactive at reaching out to parents too... They are lucky to have you as their Ako teacher." — Year 9 Dean & Colleague

High school assessments can feel overwhelming and leave students not knowing where to start. I am experienced and understanding when it comes to breaking down a film or novel, structuring an essay, or prepping for the NCEA Common Assessment Activities (CAAs).
I tailor every session to what they need that week. I offer a calm, encouraging space where students can ask questions, build their writing confidence, and learn practical strategies to hit their credit goals—without the pressure of a full classroom.

She is a fantastic secondary English teacher who really knows her stuff, especially when it comes to NCEA requirements and essay writing. She is super patient, breaks down difficult topics so they're easy to understand, and really helps students build their confidence. Highly recommend her for high school tutoring!
