About Shweta

My name is Shweta. I am a 35 year old qualified Science teacher from Australia and have over three years of teaching experience in Australia, UK and Thailand. I am also TEFL certified and can therefore teach English as a Foreign Language as well. I have been tutoring biology, chemistry and maths-based subjects to high school university students (in both groups and individually) within Australia since April 2005. I am currently teaching English as a Foreign Language online to students in China, Vietnam and Taiwan. I have also been a volunteer tutor for Year 11 and 12 chemistry and biology students at The University of Melbourne and have been the subject coordinator for Biology there in 2007.

My teaching style is personalised, hands-on, student-centered, uses a lot of inquiry-
based and collaboration and a lot of positive reinforcement and encouragement in my interactions with students. I structure my lessons by first interacting with students to build a rapport with them and find out what areas they are struggling in. I then use quizzes, worksheets and simple tasks as pre-assessment tools to find out their strengths and weaknesses as well as their learning style. Based on the results, I use a variety existing teaching and learning resources and develop new ones to cater to their learning needs and styles, including role plays, debates, dialogues and other communication-based activities, worksheets, power points, animations, videos, audio clips and more hands-on activities. I ensure that my students get enough practice and gain confidence in the skills they need to improve upon at all times. Providing and receiving constructive feedback to and from my students is a critical component in my teaching and I ensure this is done on a regular basis during lessons and after correcting students' work.

I have assisted in the preparation of annual tutoring curriculum for my students, a subject booklet summarising the topics to be covered in the year, brief notes specific to each topic, assessment tasks and hints and tips for preparing for examinations; preparation of my own notes for students in each topic, giving them individual assistance on any topics they are struggling with, helping them with assignments and other assessment tasks, giving them weekly revision tasks as homework and correcting them and also assisting students with exam preparation.

Through working closely with me over the years, my students have managed to accelerate their academic results, have developed a clearer understanding and appreciation of the nuances and concepts of the subjects I have taught them and have been able to apply them in an articulate, coherent and confident manner. I have received very positive feedback from my students, their peers and parents through my services and have formed lifelong constructive professional relationships with them in the process.

I would now like to reach out to a bigger student base and offer my services to a variety of students in various subjects, add more value in their learning of various subjects, assist them with their understanding and application of the concepts of the subject, boost their confidence and make an impact on their lives.

I am based in Notting Hill, VIC, Australia and my hourly rate is $50 Per hour. This rate is negotiable and I am happy to offer a complimentary initial trial lesson.

I am currently teaching Science, Maths and English as a Second Language Online to
students in Australia, China, Vietnam and Taiwan

I have taught Science, Maths, Chemistry, Biology and English as a Second language
in various secondary schools in Australia, UK and Thailand from 2011-2016.

I have been regularly tutoring science, biology, chemistry and mathematics-based
subjects to high school and university students in Australia since April 2005.

I have also been a volunteer tutor for Year 11 and 12 chemistry and biology students
in the VCE Summer school in 2006 and 2007 organised by The University of
Melbourne and have been the subject coordinator for Biology in 2007.

I have assisted in the preparation of annual tutoring curriculum for my students, a
subject booklet summarising the topics to be covered in the year, brief notes specific
to each topic, assessment tasks and hints and tips for preparing for examinations;
preparation of my own notes for students in each topic, giving them individual
assistance on any topics they are struggling with, helping them with assignments and
other assessment tasks, giving them weekly revision tasks as homework and
correcting them and also assisting students with exam preparation strategies.

Looking forward to working with you all and make learning an engaging, challenging and enjoyable experience for everyone.
