MORE ABOUT ME

Hi! I am a graduate VIT registered teacher from Monash University with a major in Advanced Chemistry, obtaining a high distinction for all Chemistry units (average 86 WAM) and a 99.05 ATAR in VCE.

I have shared my passion of education and chemistry with over 150 STUDENTS in the past 5 YEARS. As a graduate teacher, I have developed a tailored and personalised approach for each student, ensuring each student’s weaknesses are addressed to facilitate fast-tracked growth.

I am always available to answer questions and calls outside of tutoring sessions for free so that students have 24/7 support from someone who cares about their VCE journey.

I strive to develop a strong relationship with my students, based on mutual respect, acting as an educator and mentor.

The focus of tutoring will be on understanding, rather than rote learning content. Memorisation will be avoided as I strive for all students, regardless of academic ability to try and obtain a conceptual understanding of content. Guided practice via questions will also be commonly used during classes to support engagement and learning.

The implementation of the new 2024 study design can be daunting for many, luckily, I have spent hundreds of hours learning and analysing the new changes to assist towards the prediction of the VCAA exam questions. There will be no uncertainty towards what content is examined, and what content has been introduced.

Worried about the time needed to write and develop notes? There's no need, all content for Unit 3, Unit 4 and Experimental design has been created in a simple, easy-to-read manner. No more wasting time filtering through irrelevant textbook content!

RESOURCES AVAILABLE

Over 250 pages of annotated Unit 3, Unit 4 and experimental design notes, modified for the new 2024 study design.

Over 500 pages of relevant VCAA questions filtered from 2000 – 2025 organised per chapter to be worked on during the year together.

20+ 2024/2025 Trial Exams ranging from STAV, NEAP, TSSM, INSIGHT, ACED, ACCESS and more.

25+ 2024/2025 Practice SACs ranging from Mac Robertson, Caulfield Grammar, Nossal, Balwyn High and more.

Comprehensive analysis of most examined questions for the end of year exam.

WHY CHOOSE ME

I have tutored students from several schools around the state, ranging from public schools to private schools such as Brighton Grammar, Casey Grammar, King David School, Caulfield Grammar and all select entry schools including John Monash, MacRobertson, Melbourne High, Nossal and many more.

I have delivered Chemistry seminars to facilitate exam success to over 100 schools around the state and contributed to the peer-editing of the Chemistry Connect textbook.

All student academic levels and goals are welcomed. Worried about underperforming in Year 11? All relevant content will be reviewed and explained to ensure you are not falling behind. Many previous students obtained 40+ study scores despite doing poorly in Unit ½.
