WHY ME:
As a recent NCEA graduate, I can provide personalised support to your NCEA subjects (with deep insight into Maths, Calculus, Statistics, Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Geography). I also assist with specific subjects, exams or assessments depending on your need.
I have been through both the NZ and Australian university application process and have seen success in both. Besides, I have 5+ years of experience in tutoring students ranging Yr 5 ~ Yr 13 and currently tutor students in both Australia and New Zealand. These unique experiences provide me the ability to see the big picture to assist you meeting your aspirations.
As a former competitive swimmer and student involved in various leadership and extracurriculars opportunities, I understand that every one of us stand in a unique circumstance. At our first complimentary meeting, a casual conversation will let me know you and suggest personalised plans to meet your particular aim.
Tutoring as a university student, all my students work flexibly with lesson times. All students have my contact to chat to me outside of their weekly tutoring sessions. I respond to any concerns or questions, which makes our tutoring more efficient and students find me more approachable.
