My name is Christina and I am 22 years old. I have just finished a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Melbourne, and am going to be starting my Masters in Epidemiology at the beginning of 2015. I have a passion for tutoring biology and other science subjects and love being able to help students reach their full potential.

I have been in charge of 2 afternoon classes, each with 5- 10 students, year 11 and year 12 in my old high school for the past 3 years. The classes are for Mathematics and Chemistry and are to assist international students with understanding of concepts.
I have private tutoring experience with VCE Chemistry, Maths Methods, and Biology.
I’m a current bio-medical student at Melbourne university and I am pursuing a career as a medical research scientist. I love tutoring as it not only allows me to pass on useful knowledge to others and maintain my communication skills at a high level but also helps me in my own studies and time management as well as for preparing effective study plans. I enjoy playing soccer, chess and engaging in discussions on global and scientific issues with friends over a cup of coffee.
I very much enjoy tutoring students because it gives me an opportunity to help them to understand things that I find fascinating – such as novels, history or even just the English language itself. It is also wonderful to see the progress that students can make quite quickly when they have someone to help and guide them in their study.
Outside of tutoring, my main hobby is dance. I have studied ballet and jazz/contemporary for about 18 years now, and I still love to learn and improve my skills, and of course perform also. I also enjoy spending time reading, and watching films – and better yet discussing these things with others. But perhaps what I enjoy most is spending time with my friends, family and of course my dog!

In my role as a classical voice, violin and music theory teacher, I assist young children and adults in their journey towards understanding, appreciating and ultimately, creating music. This requires a high level of articulacy as well as a very positive and sensitive approach to the learning process. Flexibility in the way I deliver information is incredibly important, as each individual has different ways of learning. As part of my role, I prepare lesson plans for each student which address the key areas I have identified as needing more attention. These can include anything from the fundamentals of technique and musicianship skills to the introduction of new music theory concepts through games and improvisation. In the lesson, I am constantly devising new ways of delivering material in a more engaging and memorable way. Above all, I try always to ensure my enthusiasm for music comes across, no matter what we are working on. I have received very positive feedback from parents and students.
I am currently studying a Master in Teaching (Primary) and I am extremely passionate about educational equity and ensuring every child has access to educational opportunities regardless of locality. This is a reason why I enjoy tutoring, as it means that I can teach to the needs of each individual student so they receive the support they require outside of school hours. I extremely enjoy travelling and have spent time volunteering and teaching in South East Asia and I hope to be able to continue combining both interests of travel and education together in the future.
