Mrs DIANA HATOUM - Hurstville/Bankstown/Canterbury, Sydney

In the Tertiary Preparation Course (TAFE's equivalent of the HSC for mature
students looking to
gain University admission) I completed at Ultimo TAFE in 2005 I gained perfect
scores in Chemistry
and Advanced Calculus and a near perfect score in Biology and Physics. I then
went on to
complete a Bachelor of Science at the University of Sydney where I studied
Advanced
Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Microbiology and Biochemistry.

My specialties are Maths (General, Maths and extension 1), Chemistry, Biology,
Physics and Arabic. I
have had a year's experience in helping Year 7 - 12 students improve in these
areas and pass their
exams. So far, my students have done well and their parents are extremely
pleased with the
results they have achieved.

I am patient, nurturing and have a great ability to explain complex concepts simply
so that they can
be understood by students of all levels and abilities. I've been through the stress of
studying and
know how important it is on many levels to do well and succeed. I am also fluent in
both English and
Arabic, so can be of great value to students and parents who's primary language
is Arabic and
have difficulty understanding English. I am available Monday - Friday afternoons
and Saturday
morning. I live in the Bankstown/Lakemba area and am available to either come to
you or for you to
come to me.

I can provide students with past exams and worksheets to help them understand
and achieve their
best.

Experience
Currently I am tutoring HSC level students in Maths and Chemistry and first year uni
chemistry. I am able to
provide assistance to all levels
from infants through to first year university in Maths (General, 2 and 3 unit,
Calculus and Algebra), Chemistry,
Biology, Physics and Arabic. So far, my students have showed great
improvements in their results and confidence.

I am fluent in both English and Arabic.
