**I am no longer taking weekly students until November 2nd as the schedule is already full.**

I am a qualified teacher with fourteen years in the classroom and twelve years experience teaching VCE Biology. I have participated in VCAA Biology exam marking so I know exactly what the exam markers are looking for, and I can help students learn how to read and interpret exam questions and examiners reports. In addition to my classroom experience I have been tutoring for 10 years. I have extensive leadership experience within schools including Head of Science, Head of Whole School Literacy and Numeracy, and Acting Assistant Principal - Curriculum.

I have a comprehensive understanding of the content and understand the study design for 2022. I have topic tests, practice SACs and practice exams available. I have a google document of key terms and model answers to commonly asked short answer questions and exam questions, that I share with my ongoing students. This document has been collated using a combination of examiners reports, the study design and the VCAA FAQs, and has helped many of my students get A+ on their exams.

I have participated in ARC funded academic research in conjunction with ACU to design and deliver specific teaching to enhance the scientific writing of students from EAL backgrounds. (www.multiliteracies.com.au). As the exams move away from the previous format of dot point 3 mark answers and more towards 5 & 6 mark answers, the skill of clear and concise written responses becomes more important. My study and research in the area of scientific literacy has enabled me to support the writing of sac and exam responses and the Scientific Poster, and offer students feedback on how to get the best results from these assessment tasks.

*Maths**
I tutor Primary Maths and Secondary Maths to year 9 only. I have experience with students who have language disorders as well as ADHD, dyslexia and other neurodivergent learning challenges, and can quickly develop rapport online with young people. I can tailor my teaching style to suit the learning needs of your child and develop their capacity, or extend them further.

I only offer online classes. If you email and don't hear back from me, please check your spam folder.
