About
Hi!
I’m Dion, I’m a recent graduate from Melbourne University with a Bachelor’s degree in Physics and an Advanced Diploma in Applied Mathematics, both with a high distinction.
My ATAR (completed in 2021) was 96.55, with my best subjects being specialist maths (46), French (46) and maths methods (41).
Having struggled with learning maths by memorisation and experiencing the consequences of this approach first-hand, I teach with the focus on a conceptual understanding. Aiming to build an intuitive understanding for why equations behave the way they do, and WHY the processes we use to solve problems work, students are able to apply these techniques to a wider range of problems rather than just chugging through formulas.
