About

Hi, I am a secondary school teacher in North-East Melbourne. My academic and teaching experience is varied, meaning that I would be open to tutoring opportunities in commerce, philosophy and ethics, government & politics and/or the humanities (history/geography). I offer tutoring services to high school students looking to improve specifically in any of the above subjects, or to improve general academic skills (e.g. grammar, public speaking, vocabulary, critical reading, essay writing, etc.). I am friendly and warm with a good sense of humour. I pride myself on making learning fun and accessible for students. Please get in touch if you have any questions.
