What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy the "light-bulb" moment when a student figures out the concept for themselves.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
Mainly being able to listen to the student. I think I'm enthusiastic about getting to know them and what they care about, which helps me teach. Rather than just trying to do a job.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I think to provide a larger framework or paradigm for what they are learning. When something fits into a context for "why" they are learning a concept.Subjects Tutored 🎓

About Anthony
Experienced Science Educator with a Strong Academic Background
Anthony brings a solid scientific foundation to his tutoring, holding an honours degree in science and years of hands-on research experience. He has spent many years working in laboratories, collecting and analysing data, writing reports, and explaining complex concepts to researchers and junior staff. This means he can break down challenging Maths and Science ideas into clear, step-by-step explanations for high school students, and help primary students build strong foundations in logical thinking and problem-solving.
Proven Teaching Experience Supporting Diverse Learners
Anthony has several years of formal tutoring experience, delivering 2–3 hour tutorials in core science subjects to university students. He has taught key learning outcomes, marked assessments, and guided students who were struggling with core concepts to reach higher levels of understanding. This tutor is very comfortable answering “why” questions, using real-world examples from his research background to make abstract ideas concrete and relatable for both primary and high school learners.
Patient Communicator Who Builds Confidence
Through mentoring junior researchers and running seminars, Anthony has developed a calm, structured teaching style that suits students who may feel anxious about Maths or Science. He is used to planning sessions, checking understanding regularly, and adjusting his explanations until they click. In tutoring, he focuses on building confidence by celebrating small wins and teaching students how to approach problems methodically, so they not only improve their marks but also feel more in control of their own learning.

Mainly breaking big problems down to simpler problems. Eg We found just working on one part of an equation at a time to be really helpful.

Understanding the matricies content. The textbook description was difficult to understand. However, looking at alternative explanations, Bonnie was able to pick up the content very quickly. She was also able to apply it to real world scenarios.
Needs more practice with algebra.
Understanding concepts. Works through problems quickly.
Understanding concepts. Works through problems quickly.
Needs more practice with previous lessons. Understands concept, but likely overall workload etc might prevent full retention and recall of previous content. However, once content was re-taught, Bonnie did pick it up much faster.
Has good ability to do basic add/subtract/muliply/divide.

Needs more practice with algebra. Would help to practice taking an equation and breaking it down to smaller components then solving each one individually.
