Tutoring Approach:

BEYOND MATH, IT'S ABOUT HELPING STUDENTS SEE HOW BRILLIANT, ACCOMPLISHED AND SELF CONFIDENT THEY CAN BE!

With great passion for Mathematics and Education, and coming from a family of Engineers and Teachers, I combine the best of both worlds to provide the best explanations, strategies and overall educational support. The objective with all my students is to help them progress rapidly and improve their results consistently; increases of 20-30% within 2 weeks of starting lessons are not uncommon among them. *Each of my students' outcomes is MY OWN TOP PRIORITY*. With over 12 years of experience and over 600 1-on-1 past students, I am very confident with different attitudes and learning styles, and not only explain the topics in a fully comprehensible, tried-and-tested step-by-step way, but make sure discipline, focus, self-assurance and work ethic improve as well.

*ACHIEVING EXCELLENCE IS WITHIN THE REACH OF EVERY STUDENT*

My approach goes well beyond tutoring, I coach and mentor my students paying close attention to all aspects of their education and personal growth (study material, motivation, habits) so they become consistently more accomplishment-minded. Beyond subject content, thorough assessment and constructive feedback of study and personal habits are provided continuously, lesson by lesson, with strong emphasis on discipline, focus, hard work and self confidence, so they become better, more fulfilled and successful in Math *and their other subjects too*, a decisive factor particularly in years 11 and 12.

Furthermore, I do understand the economic and time investment involved, and offer a completely personalised study plan tailored to the student's needs. Regular 2 hs/week of lessons results in at least a consistent B plus, and in most instances A. Having lived, studied and worked in four continents (North and South America, Europe and Oceania), work experience in telecom and mining companies and postgraduate studies in the UK and USA allow me to offer a more well-rounded educational experience.

*****Highlights of my work*****
Personal commitment to unlocking my students' potential. I greatly value your trust and make sure both students and parents are very happy with the outcomes.
Time & stress management; study, goal setting and test/exam taking skills are evaluated from the start. *This is key in promoting improvement in Math and all other subjects*
As I teach intensively on a daily basis (I work with 25-50+ students weekly year round) I know the most commonly tested topics and make sure to prioritise them.
All questions are always welcomed and all students are treated with great encouragement, high expectation, attention and respect.
Students are continuously encouraged to achieve higher proficiency levels, we move swiftly onto more advanced material as soon as they seem confident. Fast, steady improvements are not uncommon among my students.
Together with understanding the principles and academic improvement, special emphasis on confidence, enjoying the discovery and learning process, and realising how simple yet very beautiful and rewarding Math can be!

*WE ARE ALL MUCH MORE CAPABLE AND STRONGER THAN WHAT WE MAY THINK WE ARE*

Year by year my students have successfully gained admission to / graduated from ANU, University of Adelaide, UniSA, Flinders University, University of Melbourne, Monash University, RMIT, Deakin University, University of Sydney, UNSW, Macquarie University, University of Technology Sydney, University of Queensland, Queensland University of Technology, Bond University, University of the Sunshine Coast, CQU, James Cook University, University of Western Australia, Curtin University, Edith Cowan University, Australian Defence Force Academy and top-rated overseas universities. A substantial number of them enter highly competitive and demanding programs in Medicine, Dentistry, Physiotherapy, Optometry, Medical Imaging, Biotechnology, Veterinary Science, Law, Architecture, Civil / Aeronautical / Electrical / Mechanical / Chemical / Biomedical Engineering, Information Technology, Computer Science, Data Science, Accounting, Business/Commerce, Finance, Economics, among others.

*REGULAR PHYSICAL AND MENTAL EXERCISE ARE KEY TO SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS*

*CULTIVATING THE BEST HABITS EVERY DAY IS THE SECRET TO SUCCESS*

Subjects and tests I offer:
* AMC and other Math competitions
* Naplan
* Scholarship & Selective School Tests (SEHS, OC, HAST, IGNITE, HAST. Please enquire about your particular needs)

*TO ACHIEVE TRUE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE, FIRST WE NEED TO CONQUER OURSELVES*

Let me know if you need tuition in Physics, Chemistry or Biology to put you in contact with one of my highly experienced, effective and reliable colleagues experts in those subjects.

Regular tuition includes, beyond lesson time, homework, vast amounts of carefully handpicked study and practice material, between lesson enquiries and assignment proofreading (my students generally obtain A/A+s in theirs) 100% free of charge all included. Free extra time is also provided from time to time based on your needs.

*Professional fully tried-and-tested online tuition infrastructure and resources. Top-of-range workstation; super fast, reliable cabled Internet; Skype; easy-to-use, richly featured Mathematics virtual whiteboard (one of the very best world-wide) and all study materials digitalised. I've been providing online tuition since 2015 to remote, interstate and overseas students with the same level of success as with in person tuition. My fastest improved student is in fact from regional NSW, she increased her marks by 50% in less than a term with online tuition only* (Full details available upon request).
