5.0  (3 student reviews)

A mum of two and with 30 years teaching experience, in Victoria, interstate and at various overseas posts, I am a highly experienced Science and Mathematics teacher. I am currently teaching full time at one of Australia's most prestigious schools and I love every minute of it! I am happy to support students in:

VCE Units 1 - 4 Biology
VCE Units 1 - 2 Chemistry
VCE Units 1 - 2 General Mathematics
VCE Units 1 - 2 Mathematical Methods

and

Primary School Mathematics and Science
Year 7 - 10 Science
Year 7 - 10 Mathematics

I am available to tutor students between 5-8:30pm on most week-nights and happy to negotiate alternative times, particularly as needs arise and examinations approach. The best way to contact me is via tutor finder.
I also have vast experience training pre-service teachers and have worked in a number of schools as Head of Science and in various Learning and Teaching leadership positions. My students find me very approachable, and I teach solely to help my students achieve their best. I love learning! I like to find out my students' current understanding of particular concepts and skills and help them to break down content before introducing strategies to interpret and complete questions with succinct responses and use of key terms examiners are expecting to see. I am happy to work with the textbooks and other resources my students are using in class.

"Deb made a real, tangible difference. My son was certain that Biology would be the lowest performing subject in VCE, and he had accepted that it would be the 10%er. In 3 sessions only, Deb turned that around; in fact, we could see the change in mindset and approach after the first lesson. Deb used a more conversational approach, backed by past papers and intimate knowledge of the subject matter to draw my son's knowledge together to the point where he has now finished, and confident that he did really well. 100% credit to Deb for that."
