I am a Proficient NESA Qualified HSC Chemistry/ Investigating Science and Junior Science (7-10) teacher with 4 years experience and understand a lot about the different ways students learn.
Highschool:
- 1st in HSC Chemistry and Ancient History
- 2nd in Physics and English Standard
Uni:
- Undergraduate Bachelors of Science in Nanotechnology
- R&D Chemist in optical nanoparticle synthesis for 2 years.
- Masters of Secondary Education
I also spent a year in Canada as a ski instructor. It was this overlap of a love for science and passion for instructing that made me want to do my Masters.
I have developed many resources over the years of teaching which I will share with you to help you understand this difficult subject.
My students describe me as a "low cortisol" teacher. I am patient, relaxed and understanding, but will keep you focused. I have experience working with students requiring complex additional supports for their learning, so I can adapt well to support you too.
