About

I am a librarian and information studies student in training and former mathematics and science teacher based in south-eastern Melbourne. I have a keen interest in helping students to understand their subjects in depth, not just to their tests, and in academic research. I have three years of VCE Psychology teaching experience, in addition to my three years of junior Maths and Science teaching. Prior to becoming a teacher, I tutored for 5 years throughout my university study. I have a Bachelor of Science in Developmental Biology and Genetics from Monash University and a Master of Teaching (Secondary) from the University of Melbourne. As a tutor I can offer a variety of resources to enhance your child's learning, a fresh explanation for confusing concepts, and a wealth of experience from my own tutoring and classroom teaching.
