Anita S.
Tutoring near Glenside, Adelaide, SA


About

Hi there! My name is Anita and I am an experienced (5+ years) biology tutor and assignment proofreader for the following subjects: ✔️ Year 3-12 Biology (IB/SACE: HL/SL/SACE) ✔️ 1st & 2nd Year University Human Biology Courses I recently graduated from the University of Adelaide's Nursing School with an overall GPA of 6.750/7, which has enabled me to be part of the Golden Key International Honour Society (top 15% of university students at the University of Adelaide) as well as be awarded a Certificate of Merit from the faculty's dean (top 15 students out of 200+ students). With strong grades (High Distinctions) and passion for biology and physiology, I am able to assist with all nursing courses (including biology and drug calculations) and biology/physiology related courses at university level. In addition to university students, I'm also able to help high school students studying biology (IB or SACE). I graduated from Glenunga International High School having undertaken the IB diploma and scoring consistent A's and A+'s as well as 6s and 7s in biology, including IB Biology at Higher Level. With a strong passion for biology, this has enabled me to achieve school-level outstanding achievement awards as well as state-level awards in the Oliphant Science Awards. Furthermore, these results have allowed me to be accepted into a variety of university courses around Australia involving biology including Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing, Chemical Engineering, and Environmental Engineering with scholarships. With many years of experience as a tutor for students in Years 8-12, 100% of my students have improved by at least one grade band with some students even going from C/D grades to A grades. In addition to my experience as a tutor, I have additional experience working with children as a peer mentor for high school students, a student ambassador for university, a paediatric nursing assistant and now a paediatric registered nurse at a major SA hospital as well as a registered nurse in a highly acute setting at another major SA hospital where my knowledge of biology and human physiology is consolidated heavily. My tutoring is heavily student-centred which involves me helping a child see their full potential and working alongside with their families, if appropriate. These are my rates: ✔️ $50/hour for in-person tutoring ✔️ $45/hour for online tutoring I am available for tutoring in-person as well as tutoring online. As a results-driven person whose ultimate goal is to help you/your child achieve the dream grade, I look forward to helping you/your child excel! FB: Anita Tutors

Reviews

Anita was patient, kind, and understanding during our tutoring sessions. She taught me in such a way that after our time together, I was able to fully understand the material not just memorize it. My time with her was invaluable, and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of tutoring!

Anita is a very kind and intelligent person, qualities I believe make her an amazing tutor. Her tireless drive to help people combined with her knack for explaining difficult concepts understandably allows her to be a really effective teacher. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a tutor!

Anita has the all the qualities of a model student - she is extremely diligent, organised and caring with a strong work ethic and attention to detail. Throughout my time working alongside her, I have noticed that these qualities stem from her genuine passion and curiosity for learning, something which I am confident she will pass on to her students. I have no hesitations in recommending her for this role.
