I have been teaching for the last 25 years, teaching students in Singapore, Sydney and now Canberra. I specialise in younger children building foundations, however I have chosen to concentrate on year 4 to year 8 where their developmental years are crucial to get them to University. These are the make or break years, get it right and they will confidence, if children struggle, they will not embark on the crucial STEM programs needed to do Engineering and the Sciences, Accounting, Data, etc

I teach the Singapore Curriculum, because it is one of the most rigorous programs, children who excel in my programs go on to do higher Maths. Maths Methods/Maths Methods at university in their Pursuit of the STEM subjects at University.

I love teaching children who need to build a strong foundation. I also love taking on students who want to pursue maths at a higher level and have that satisfaction knowing that they can taken on anything in life if they want to. Go to www.giftedthinkers.com.au

I specialise in Year 4-Year 8 students to get them to the higher levels so that they are able to take on STEM subjects. I bring a difference with the Singapore Syllabus and Programme for Children in Australia. The syllabus is a lot stronger and I prepare students to be ahead of their current curriculum. I prepare students for Naplan and ICAS.

Majority of my students are from Canberra Grammar, Radford and from Burgmann. I do have other students from the neighbouring schools and Catholic Schools.

While I do charge by the hour, I am known to ask children to come in during mid week
for extra classes and while I do not charge unless I believe your child really needs
extra classes, I work with kids to make sure that homework is done and parents are
across the work of their children. I totally understand the costs that go towards
schooling a child, I therefore want parents to therefore work with me so that their
children get the results and know that they are getting value for money
