I recently completed my PhD at the University of Melbourne and am a Lecturer in History and Philosophy. I am extremely passionate about helping students develop the skills they need to thrive at high school and beyond. I'd love to help you become an expert essay writer and ace that upcoming English or History exam. One of my biggest flexes is that a STEM student recently told me that I made them fall in love with English!
When it comes to tutoring, there really is no 'one size fits all', so I'm excited about getting to know you as an individual - your passions, your strengths, how you like to learn.
STUDENT TESTIMONIES Rather than telling you myself why I'd make a great tutor, I'll leave this part to my former students. Here’s feedback from a recent university student experience survey. Based on 45 responses, I received an average rating of 4.8 out of 5 across all categories. Students also wrote:
- "Alyssa is the kindest tutor ever, I feel so comfortable being in her class!"
- "I like how clearly my tutor explains topics and how she makes it interesting to learn about."
- "Love how Alyssa is alway cheerful with her big smile."
- "She always encouraged us to answer the questions, and also listened to our responses carefully. I really appreciated that she always answers my questions and was so patient."
- "Alyssa made the tutorials very interactive and fun while also making sure we learnt our content well."
