I have previously tutored a middle school student English, and a high school student Biology. To improve my tutee’s proficiency in using English as his second language, I divided my class into segments targeting different aspects of English, for instance spending 30 minutes on vocabulary, reading and writing. I also assigned homework and exercises in reasonable amounts for the student so that he is able to retain that information and absorb what is being taught in class. I’ve also structured my class in a way that allows my student’s creativity to flow. For instance, when it comes to teaching him how to write, I’ll provide him with several prompts to choose from, with an emphasis on brainstorming and generating ideas. Also, I gave my student the freedom to choose the novel/book/literature that we should discuss/read in class. Over time, not only did his writing skills improved, his oral skills did too. I’m glad I got be part of the process to help him raise his academic grade to where he’d like to be at.
I also previously had another student who was struggling with Biology due to an overwhelming amount of content he struggled to memorize. The first thing I told him is that although there are some aspects in BIology where memorization is unavoidable, there are also many aspects where it’s logical when you’re familiar with the terminology, and shouldn’t need much memorizing when you can connect the dots together. I told him to notify me parts of what he doesn’t understand prior to starting the tutoring session with me so I prepare my best on how to help him. Mostly, what I found what he struggled with the most was that he was not used to the terminology, so I emphasized a lot of that, because that is the foundation of how to piece everything in Biology. I also broke down the essential points of what his teacher addressed in class in layman terms, then in biological terms. I didn’t want my class to just be purely a memorizing one. So instead of spoon-feeding him with information to memorize, sometimes I will ask him some questions to see if he can see the relation between one thought to another, and whether he is able to link them together. For instance, I asked him “why is water’s surface tension convenient to insects?” And then I explained to him about the properties of water but not giving the answer completely, before going back to the original question I asked him. Also, I will link what he has learned in class to what is happening around the world to increase his fondness for this subject.

About Me
Hi! I’m Oakley, and I’m a student at The University of Melbourne, currently undertaking a Graduate Diploma of Plant Science (with a previous major in Zoology, and plans to continue with a research Masters in animal behaviour or plant-animal interactions). When I’m not studying or tutoring, you’re most likely to find me out birdwatching on a sandy shore or beneath the tree ferns of Sherbrooke Forest. I’m also very partial to a sneaky game of Mario Kart. I’ve been tutoring on-and-off since 2012, and in the last one-two years have tutored higher-level biology classes, most notably with the UMSU VCE Summer School and at Medley Hall, one of Melbourne Uni’s residential colleges. I love the rewarding feeling that comes with the moment when a student grasps a concept during a tutorial – one of my most precious moments was when my student, who’d never taken a biology class before university, recited the entire process of cellular respiration back to me without a pause. As a flexible and committed individual with a real passion for life sciences, and knowing all too well the perils of having a dreadful teacher, I hope I can bring something to the table for each and every person 🙂

Qualified Secondary School Teacher, Experienced tutor
During my placement in UoM Master of Secondary Teaching (2014) I taught Year 11 VCE Chemistry, Year 11 VCE Biology, Year 8-10 Secondary Science and Year 9-10 Secondary Maths in local secondary schools. Also, I have been working as a Math & Chem & Bio private tutor for five years from 2010 till now. During this period I have been responsible for tutoring more than one hundred students including local secondary students, international students and foundation program students.
High School ATAR Score 99.50
Bachelor of Biomedicine – University of Melbourne
Bachelor of Biomedicine (Honours) – University of Melbourne
Master of Secondary Teaching – University of Melbourne
In 2014 I graduated from a Master of Science degree from the University of Melbourne, majoring in zoology. I have extensive experience working as both a private and volunteer tutor for students of all ages, spanning a breadth of subjects, including biology, chemistry, English, maths and physics. Being an active member of various communities over the past few years has given me the opportunity to develop strong interpersonal skills. As a university tutor and practical demonstrator I was able to develop skills in teaching and communication. I also thoroughly enjoyed my position as a volunteer tutor for primary students at the Victorian Housing Commission from 2011-2012. I am an enthusiastic, reliable and responsible member of the community, and am always eager to share my passion for education with others.
I’m an experienced tutor in biology, chemistry and Japanese who is happy to do individual as well as group lessons. I’m motivated to see you improve in the subjects of your choosing, it makes me happy to see your hard work pay off.
I’m also a staunch believer that study time and method should be effectively managed. So many hours have been wasted staring blankly at textbooks. When you learn with me, you will not only learn about the subject but also how to study for the subject. I’m quite flexible too, and will find a way that works best for you.
Aside from that, I’m also an avid martial artist and love to read.
