About

Hey there! I'm Merjam, but my students call me 'Ms. M' :) As the Head of Humanities at an independent school, I'm passionate about helping VCE students excel in their studies, especially when it comes to my favourite subject: Sociology. I know firsthand how challenging VCE can be, and that's why I offer personalised and one-on-one online tutoring sessions that cater to your individual needs. No more worrying about being constrained by location, as all my sessions are held virtually using Zoom or Microsoft Teams. As a Bachelor of Arts graduate from the University of Melbourne, where I double-majored in 'English and Theatre Studies' and 'Criminology,' and a Master of Teaching (Secondary) degree holder, I have accumulated an impressive list of academic awards, including the Olive Battersby Award, Dwight's Prize, Harold Cohen Prize, and Alice Taylor Scholarship. I was even on the Dean's Honours List for two consecutive years of my Master's degree. This means I was among the top 2% of the highest achieving students at the university, and I attained the highest aggregate scores in my course. But that's not all. My tutoring services are comprehensive and tailored to suit your needs. From clarifying Sociological concepts and theories to guiding you in developing fantastic short answer responses and ensuring you research your case studies effectively, I provide extensive feedback on your practice SACs and exams using Microsoft Word's "Track Changes" tool. That way, every change I make to your work remains visible, and you can accept or reject it upon review. Feedback, advice, and suggestions are also made in the margins for you to read through and apply, as desired. My students have described me as diligent, friendly, and approachable, and their results speak for themselves. Some have even achieved study scores in the high 40s, with one of them achieving a 48/50 last year as their study score! So, if you're looking for a tutor who is dedicated, passionate, and committed to helping you achieve your goals, look no further. Contact me today, and let's get started on your journey to success in Sociology!

I studied my Masters of Teaching at the University of Melbourne with Merjam and have been teaching in secondary schools since 2019. Merjam has always been an approachable and determined person, even tutoring university students whilst we were studying! She is enthusiastic and always willing to go above and beyond for her students.

Merjam is one of my close friends and she was actually my tutor in University. She graded my essays, and provided me with comments and advice on how to improve my work. She even made changes to my assignment to allow it to flow, and read well. My favourite thing about her tutoring is that she is really critical - she simply just tells you exactly what to do and fix up to improve your result. I learnt so much from her comments, and ended up getting my first ever A+ at University (which is called a HD in the tertiary context). Because of this, I strongly recommend her tutoring and marking services - you honestly get your money’s worth.
