MY BACKGROUND ...
I was educated to University level in the NSW education system (Sydney metropolitan area). I hold Diploma Certification in Financial Markets, and Cert IV qualifications in Small Business Management and Web Development/Design.
My teaching style is dynamic, with an emphasis on encouraging students to find solutions themselves, by arming them with the appropriate strategies. I teach my students not to fear the learning process, but to build on their strengths, and examine their weaknesses in a safe environment, where confidence building is the key.
I have a Working With Children Check. valid to 09/06/2020.
