About
*Experienced VCE psychology teacher*
Hi! I am a current and registered VCE Psychology teacher with eight years of experience helping students attain high results (40+) in VCE Psychology. I completed both my degrees at the University of Melbourne and finished my Master of Teaching (Secondary) with first class honours.
I really enjoy motivating students to achieve their best. I have access to a number of resources including practice SACs and slides to help improve students' understanding of key study design dot points and resources for the new study design.
I have years of classroom teaching and tutoring experience and a track record of improving students scores with students in my own classes and through tutoring. I have helped students from government, Catholic and independent schools improve their results and achieve scores that put them in the top 8% of the state or higher. Every year I take on at least 10 tutoring students who I work with at achieving their maximum potential on the final exam.
I have extensive experience with students from select-entry high schools including: Suzanne Cory, Melbourne High, John Monash Science School and MacRobs.
Currently I tutor through online meetings via Zoom/GoogleMeet. Due to my teaching commitments and other students I am currently tutoring, my availabilities are limited. Please send me a message with preferred days and times.
Only taking Year 12 VCE (Units 3/4) Psychology students for 2024.

We booked Em in the lead-up to Yr 12 exams as my daughter felt behind in her preparation compared to her peers. Belinda improved in her skills and felt incredibly supported with the one-on-one attention she received in the sessions. Belinda came out of her Psychology exam feeling confident, and as parents, this made us feel relieved. I would highly recommend Em.

Em is an amazing, wise and patient tutor. I was struggling with Psychology when I contacted her and from our first session I felt a massive improvement with my confidence and skills. She is always able to provide helpful feedback on what I need to improve on and what examiners are looking for. Em also provided me with a number of resources so I could continue practicing outside of the tuition session. She was always flexible around my needs and tailored the sessions to me. Her experience as a current VCE teacher is invaluable. I could not recommend Em enough! :)

I got a 48 in Psych!! I couldn't believe it when I opened the results. Em was an amazing tutor and I really owe her a lot for all the assistance she has provided me throughout the year.
