About

I am Learning Advisor with a Ph.D. in Science. I have been tutoring and advising both school and university level students for over 19 years. I am also the winner of 2 Australian Awards for University Teaching. I am passionate about education and I love to help students reach their potential. I know that sometimes students need extra support in order to improve their grades, confidence and overall learning experience. I can assist students of all ages with their study skills and/or I can also provide more specialised biology tuition. I always ensure that I embed effective study and learning strategies into any science tutorials. During an initial consultation, I will determine your/your child's current learning and studying needs. A bespoke Success Plan is then developed, usually consisting of a number of tailored Learning Advising sessions. As a Biology Tutor, I can help with: -Year 11 and Year 12 Biology -University level Biology -General Science in Years 1-10 - Science engagement at kindergarten and pre-school levels As a Learning Advisor, I can also help with: -Explaining how the brain learns -Effective exam preparation - university and high school level -Essay writing and assignment tasks - university and high school levels -University preparation sessions - an individualised pre-Orientation! -Postgraduate study and thesis support (Masters, Ph.D.) -Learning mindset and support at kindergarten and pre-school levels Plus more! Check out my website for more comprehensive information: om/ I possess a current Blue Card for Working With Children. I currently have many openings for online sessions via Zoom - I have over 4 years of experience in providing online support and the Zoom software enables effective tutorials via video chat, screen share and digital whiteboard. Online sessions are charged at a discounted cost of $80/hour (+GST). There are a few openings for in-person sessions around Brisbane and some suburbs in Logan, and these sessions are charged at $100/hour (+GST). Travel to other areas can sometimes be arranged but would include an additional fee. I look forward to assisting you and your family :-) Recent testimonial: "We really appreciate the personal approach with your sessions, where you execute the perfect balance of enjoyment and challenge that keeps our son engaged and looking forward to your session every week. We feel that your contribution was one of the most valuable investments we have made in our son’s development" (Parent, Brisbane, 2020)

Reviews

Janine is very friendly and approachable. She articulates concepts very clearly and often has a memorable example or fun fact to help it stick in your mind. Her passion for science is also plain to see, and it is easy to get caught up in it.
