My approach to learning
Whilst I have always had a love of learning, I have not always possessed the natural aptitude for academic achievement. My results in the HSC and awards in the broader community were a result of pursuing genuine interests and my self-discipline and balanced lifestyle. I believe that achievement stems beyond marks gained in assessments and exams, and that improvement is yielded by changing an individual’s approach to school and having the support and empathy of someone who has navigated high school.
I would love to evoke this passion for learning within students who are struggling in classes or aspire to be challenged further. Throughout my high school studies, I utilised diverse and unique study techniques which helped me to achieve my goals and make the most efficient use of my time. This allowed me to prioritise my physical and mental wellbeing during the most challenging years of high school! I would love to share how it is possible to excel academically while maintaining time with friends, family and pursuing hobbies.
As a tutor, I would not only provide academic assistance and resources, but tailor my approach to lessons to specific individual needs and goals, drawing connections to different subjects and passions.
