What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy getting to know how the students learn, and how I can use their strengths and weaknesses in learning to explain tricky concepts in a way that they can understand. I enjoy seeing the student improve, and knowing that I was able to make a difference in their learning journey.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am very familiar with the Year 11 and 12 SACE curriculum for STEM subjects as I graduated from high school in 2023. I also have experience in teaching primary school and early high school students as I have been working as an assistant at Kumon for over a year. In the past I have also coached a year 8 and 9 debating team by helping these students to learn the rules and skills needed to debate successfully in inter school competitions.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe that it is important for tutors to be passionate about teaching. This way, it is easier for the student to gain interest in the subject, which ultimately leads to better performance from the student as they are more motivated to study and learn. I also think that it is important for tutors to create a comfortable learning environment for the student, so that the student is not afraid to ask questions or ask for more support if they do not understand a concept explained by the tutor.

Chemistry: Divyanshu understood how to balance and form equations in catalytic converters. Maths: Divyanshu understands the steps involved in carrying out optimisation. He also continues to develop his understanding of kinematics.
Chemistry: Further review and practice in writing out the chemical equations for the formation of nitrogen oxides and ozone is required as it is a highly important concept in Stage 2 Chemistry. Maths: Divyanshu continues to struggle with kinematics, specifically with interpreting the sign diagrams of velocity, acceleration, and distance. Therefore he requires further practice with these types of questions.

Chemistry: Divyanshu was able to understand how to calculate pH and the relationship between ocean acidification and seashell degradation. Maths: Divyanshu was able to calculate the velocity and acceleration functions.
Chemistry: More practice is required to memorise the equations for ocean acidification, and exoskeleton degradation and formation. Maths: Divyanshu struggles to understand the meaning of sign diagrams to interpret velocity, speed and acceleration. Therefore he should undertake more questions on kinematics so that he can improve how quickly he answers these questions.
