About Victor

I've always had a passion for learning and teaching science. I started in 2014 by explaining concepts to friends and family, then tutoring classmates during High School. This followed onto university and, due to high demand, I began charging small amounts.

I took this a step further and joined online math and science help forums because I enjoy and believe I am talented in teaching these subjects. Due to students liking my explanations, I started a website where I've been posting some of these explanations for quick reference.

Each student needs a different teaching style. For all cases, I do what Elon Musk always talks about: It's best to break things down to their fundamental truths and reason up from first principles. Additionally, I firmly believe that "nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough."

I see teaching Maths and Sciences much like what we'd do if we were to (say) go fishing. "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime." Let's find your own unique way of using the fishing rod and how we can apply it across contexts to catch fish.

With that said, the teaching method that tends to be the most successful in these subjects is interactive learning. I do not take the approach of simple assistance in learning and rote memorisation; I take the approach of making sure the student understands the concept entirely. This is done best with lots of examples and practice questions, in which I give the student a chance to think through it themselves, then guide them through the problems by asking the right questions and leading them into their own way of solving the problem or understanding a concept. I believe that everyone has their own style of solving a problem or approaching a concept, therefore I make sure to take this into account.

Lastly, I aim for the most effective studying with the following (although not necessary) recommendations based on research and experience:
-The session of (say) 2h to be divided into two 1h blocks with a 10-minute break in-between.
I will not charge for the break times or overtime that might be needed to finish off what we're doing

-We preferably do it earlier in the day as studies have shown that our learning and focus are significantly improved then.

-Eat enough for the whole session. Math and Science take up a lot of brain power and your brain is (by far) the most energy dependent organ.


From this, you let me know what you want to do!

Details

In cases where I have to travel for over 5 km radius of Gwynneville or UOW, the extra cost of public transport will be applied depending on where it is I have to travel to. Two-way OPAL costs vary with a total of $5-7.

I have no strict cancellation policy. However, due to a strict schedule, I'd kindly request a 24 hour in advance notice.
