Information about Robert - Kenwick tutor

Personal Description:

Thank you for looking at my profile. I have a passion for mathematics and science, and for the past decade have been teaching and researching in geophysics as a post-doctoral fellow at Curtin University and CSIRO. I have decided on a change in direction, and am hoping to build a career as a professional tutor. I have an ABN and valid Working with Children check.

Tuition Experience:

I tutored in high school level mathematics and physics while I was studying for my Ph.D (Geophysics) and found it to be a rewarding and enjoyable experience. I have also taught first and second year university level mathematics and physics to Geophysics students while working at Curtin.

Tutoring Approach:

All students learn differently. Some are visual thinkers and benefit from graphical and geometric illustration, while others are more comfortable with a detailed mathematical proof. I have a talent for identifying the conceptual problems a student may be struggling with and deducing the most effective way to assist them. Rather than relying solely on exam preparation and ro**Contact Detail Removed**arning, I prefer to ground a student with an understanding of fundamental principles. I find that this builds a students confidence and critical thinking skills, and allows them to tackle any type of problem that arises.
