Kate L.

Kate has helped me so much I can't recommend her enough for tutoring, especially for chemistry. She goes into so much detail and is so nice!

Kate has been extremely helpful in providing in-depth feedback for practice questions which has helped me make my responses more concise and targeted to meeting the requirements of a question. Kate explains difficult concepts in a detailed and simple way which is easier to comprehend, and provides a variety of homework questions to approach a topic in different ways which is helpful for assessment tasks. This tutoring has helped me become more confident in chemistry and I am able to answer questions with more precision.

Kate has been an incredibly supportive and patient tutor over the past year; tailoring lessons to areas I struggle in and thoroughly going over all the details I lack understanding in. She has made Chemistry not only easier to understand but also from a subject that I once felt lost in to one that I actually started to enjoy. I highly recommend Kate for any Chemistry student as she always goes above and beyond to challenge, yet at the same time make you enjoy the subject. Thank you for everything Kate!

Kate is easily able to bridge the gap between chemistry content and a student’s understanding due to her enthusiasm and dedication towards teaching. Since my first session, Kate has created a friendly environment where I feel at ease whilst she sensibly teaches new or challenging content. She constantly ensures I have a definite understanding before going onto the next topic through the use of her thorough yet succinct notes, regular clarifications and real world examples. Kate introduces a variety of complex concepts relevant to the chemistry syllabus and reinforces meaning through HSC style questions. Her brisk manner to reply to messages is also impeccable as seen in her kindly replying to questions with detailed explanations. After numerous lessons with Kate, I have seen a significant improvement in my grades, motivation and self-discipline. If you are in need of optimising your chemistry understanding with an engaging, down to earth and committed chemistry tutor, I couldn’t recommend Kate more!!

From my very first session, it was clear that Kate has an exceptional style of teaching chemistry concepts and principles. She is able to break down even the most complex topics in a way that is easy for me to understand. Her structured and organised classes are extremely helpful as it allows me to prepare for future topics. Every lesson I feel that my understanding develops more and more, as Kate encourages me to express my difficulties, and works with me to gain confidence and knowledge for my future assessment tasks. Since starting chemistry tutoring with Kate, I have gained a more stable understanding of concepts and topics, which has allowed me to become more comfortable in the new subject. From diagrams, notes, and exam questions, Kate has a wide range of teaching strategies to cater to a variety of learning styles. If you are seeking a tutor who is passionate, engaging and enthusiastic, I highly recommend Kate!

Kate has taught me both chemistry and modern history, and I found that her supportive teaching style to be incredibly helpful. She ensures that her students have an understanding on "what", "how" and "why", and is able to answer my questions on both subjects with logical explanations, that have genuinely assisted me in my understanding of complex concepts. Her feedback for my extended responses, particularly on the structure, has helped me with my academic writing, in both chemistry and modern history. I found myself motivated to study with Kate's help, as she continues to encourage me in my studies. In fact, I have seen massive improvement in my grades, after starting tutoring with her. Definitely recommend to any student searching for chemistry and modern history tutoring !!

Kate has been my online chemistry tutor since Year 11 of my HSC journey, and I couldn’t recommend her enough! I have been perplexed in how she has helped me with chemistry even with online tutoring. My favourite attributions about Kate is that she is patient, informative, considerate, thorough, encouraging, supportive, flexible and easy to communicate with. She has a solid and extensive understanding of the subject which helps her explain concepts and principles of chemistry clearly and concisely. She was able to help me understand complex topics, concepts, clarify misunderstandings and provide guidance and support throughout my preliminary and HSC courses. One of the aspects that Kate does really well is that she is able to explain difficult issues in many different ways, she uses real-world examples/analogies that helped me understand the concepts easier and faster. Without hesitation when I was unable to understand a concept, she was able to break down the concept for me to gain a better understanding. Not only is she was able to create a comfortable and supportive learning environment, where you will feel encouraged to ask questions and explore the subject at your own pace, she delivers exam analysis, since she is a recent graduate she knows what the markers are after, hence she is able to demonstrate what exactly is needed to write/workout a band 6 response/question. Regarding feedback, Kate is succinct and is provides homework with the attachment of detailed feedback that helps me structure, gain a better understanding of any mistakes or problems and approach difficult exam questions. Without Kate I wouldn’t be the problem-solving and extensive student that I am today - she has helped me tremendously which is evident in my school assignments and reports (straight off the bat I was ranked 1st with 95% and that did not changed much through year 11 and 12) If you are looking for a chemistry tutor, without hesitation Kate is the one to call!

I have been tutored by Kate from early year 12 until my completion of HSC. Kate is very friendly and enthusiastic while teaching and solving student’s questions. I felt comfortable and motivated about her attitude and quality of knowledge. She will continue to explain things until you understand the information and is very patient and considerate. I highly recommend Kate as a tutor.

Kate is an extraordinary chemistry tutor who readily tailors her student's needs. She is incredibly patient and thorough with her explanations and knows the new preliminary and HSC syllabus inside and out. Kate's teaching differs from other tutoring centres, which relies on rote learning; she instead ensures all her students have a logical and deep understanding of all concepts and solutions of questions in order for them to tackle any questions in exams. With her exceptional teaching and support, I was able to place top 10 for the most crucial year 12 exam, and this was only after three lessons with her!

Kate is an impressive and amazing chemistry tutor as she displays encouragement and patience through her teachings. Throughout the term, she taught me the foundations and basics of concepts and with these foundations, I was able to develop my abilities to attempt harder and more challenging questions. She takes time and has great patience when helping me understand areas that I struggle with. I am able to ask her questions from school and she never fails to help me understand the process when deriving the answers. Kate is efficient when marking homework and gives detailed feedback on how to structure answers and how to approach questions. Kate is efficient, supportive and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend her to anyone searching for chemistry tutoring!!

Kate is one of the most patient tutors I've met. She can dissect any problem into a digestible form, and she is always willing to answer questions from students. Couldn't recommend more highly.

Kate is a hardworking, dedicated tutor who takes extra care with listening and catering to the needs of her students. Anyone who has Kate as their tutor will find that she really puts a lot of time and effort into making learning content and exam preparation approachable for any student.
