TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

Hi my name is Denise, I have worked in the tutoring industry for many years and believe in it's effectiveness in filling knowledge and skill gaps in students who are falling behind at school or need that extra push and motivation to strive for academic excellence. As such, I work at a coaching college called Phoenix Education, along with a team of hand picked and dedicated tutors to assist students from Year 1-12 in all subjects disciplines. The key difference between our college and others is that education here is delivered within a small supportive class environment, allowing for more individualised support and building on the student's current level rather than at some arbitrary pace. This enables our students to reach their full potential while fostering lifelong qualities such as confidence, resilience and perseverance.


WHAT I CAN OFFER?
I personally teach the majority of the high school English classes up to Extension 2. Unlike other tutors, I possess university training in educational pedagogy as well as English knowledge up to University level. My students benefit from after class support as well as access to a vast range of materials including "personal notes, exam papers, revision materials" that our tutoring centre has gathered over the years. In addition I provide tips and exam techniques which will translate learning and understanding to top marks at school.

Some of our current and past students are/were from top selective schools including James Ruse, North Sydney Girls, North Sydney Boys, Sydney Girls, SCEGGS, Newington, St George Girls, Sydney Tech, Tempe, Fort Street as well as comprehensive high schools around the area such as Strathfield Girls, Burwood Girls, Ashfield Boys, Homebush Boys.

Our team also offer services in Primary Tuition for Math and English as I believe fundamental literacy, numeracy and problem solving skills and knowledge gathered by students at this age pave the path to academic success in high school.
