Experience
I have just under a year of experience working as a tutor at the University of Technology in Sydney. I have also previously been a mentor and disability worker for 9 months at Community Connections, as well as being a volunteer chapter member for Engineers Without Borders. In addition to all of this, I have also done community service volunteer work for one month in Cambodia. With expert tutoring sessions tailored to specific needs and unique learning styles, my students always set the pace for their learning and decide what material to cover and when to cover it.

Hobbies
I have a fascination with numbers, the origin of equations and the advancement of applied mathematics. I am ideally suited for preparing students for engineering. I cut through needless jargon and teach in a way that provides understanding. Learning is broken down into 4 steps (similar driving): 1- unconscious incompetency (unaware of what you don't know) 2.- conscious competency (aware of what you don't know) 3.- conscious competency (aware of what you know) 4. - unconscious competency (unaware of what you know. AKA proficient) Like driving a car, true proficiency is being not needing to think about the task because it becomes natural accomplish.
