Online or in person at Indooroopilly library in Brisbane.

I started tutoring high-school maths and physics in Australia in 2011, completed a PhD in 2014 and a Graduate Diploma in Education (Senior Mathematics) in 2016 both at Queensland University of Technology, worked at an overseas university from 2017 to 2020 and resumed tutoring in Australia in 2021. Math and Physics are intertwined. I have specialized in these two subjects in tutoring, teaching and researching since 2011.

Good tutors are like doctors: they should be able to find the obstacles that students are facing, give suitable suggestions such as questions to practice and videos to watch, and determine whether the students have fully comprehended the ideas and are ready to move forward. My tutorials tend to be interesting and challenging because I teach students not only how to solve a question but also why the solution is so and how to make sense of it. "Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of minds to think". I suggest students memorize only core concepts and derive the rest.

While some of my students have achieved top ATAR/OP, most of them have improved significantly. Some students and their parents have provided video testimonials for me: https://youtu.be/lyr5PPMbDoU
"It's clear, concise and easy to understand." Daniel Zheng Year 12 Brisbane Grammar School
"He can explain complicated Physics concepts in plain words." Michael Lo Year 12 Churchie

I have published a dozen of scientific research papers in prestigious journals in an interdisciplinary area involving math and physics. My publications can be found at: https://eprints.qut.edu.au/view/person/Li, _Kuo.html

Although most of my current students are learning online by ZOOM, we still can meet in person if you're in Brisbane.
