I am a full-time tutor, full-time classroom teacher, educational materials creator, curriculum designer, and life coach. She has over 15 years of teaching experience and a master's degree in Mathematics and, Bachelor's in Science.

She is enrolled in a Master of Teaching Secondary at Western Sydney University, Sydney.

I serve as a Mathematics and Science tutor. I have tutored over 2050 sessions to more than 300 students across Australia, New Zealand, America, Europe, and the Middle Eastern Continents, and 95% of my students have scored over 90%.

Academically, I scored in the top 2% of her students in her three degrees. She is currently a member of Australasia's Mathematics Education Research Group (MERGA).
I am enthusiastic about teaching and have supported students with a wide range of needs and abilities in many countries.

I always aim to ensure that students always have a firm grasp on key concepts, creating an enjoyable environment for students' learning and conveying complex scientific ideas in a fun and understandable manner. I like being a positive influence in students' lives and enjoy using my knowledge to help them achieve their goals. For me, tutoring isn't work; it's a fulfilling activity that I would jump at the chance to do.

I am a voracious researcher interested in action research completion and student misbehaviour. She has also mastered building solid relationships with students, faculty, and parents. I pride myself on making the learning process exciting and engaging. In her spare time, I loves reading, crafting, shopping, listening to music, and playing the piano.
