My Approach

I offer support to all kinds of students—from those who are struggling to following along in class and have fallen behind, to those looking to perfect their skills and excel. I have worked with a large range of students over the years and this experience allows me to personally tailor my teaching style to fit each individual, helping them achieve and exceed their goals. Everyone learns things differently, so when working with a new student I pay attention to (and ask!) which styles of explanation click and which don't, adjusting my teaching accordingly. As a general theme, I tend to place an emphasis on why something is true and seek to build an understanding of the reasoning behind the concepts we study, presenting information in a logical way to give students the sense that with enough thinking they could have come up with it themselves. I provide advice regarding study skills alongside concrete strategies to help students manage time and revise more effectively on their own. For VCE subjects, I use insights from VCAA examination reports and study designs to help students nail commonly overlooked details.
