Hi I'm Valdis,
a dad of a crazy 2 and a half year old who teaches animatronics, maths, and physics.
I have a PhD in quantum physics, was a Science Officer for Griffith University, and have been a private tutor specialising in QLD Maths and Physics for over 5 years.
My online tutoring rate is $80/hour, and my in-person rate ranges from $90-$110/hour depending on the location.
