Hello, Guys! 👋

Hello there! My name is Praneetha, and I graduated from the MacRobertson Girls' High School in 2023. I achieved a 42 in Chemistry as well as a 48 in Biology, and I'm now enjoying my second year of my Bachelor of Science at the University of Melbourne. I'm majoring in Biochemistry with a current WAM of 86 (First Class Honours), which demonstrates my sustained interest in science. Furthermore, I have an extensive educational background consisting of 2 years at Kumon and 3 years of private tutoring - including last year, when I tutored five students at both a 1/2 and 3/4 level. I am currently tutoring three 3/4 students alongside a highly competitive role at the University of Melbourne in which I tutor first year biology students. I am therefore very passionate about helping you achieve your study goals and actually have the expertise to do so!

My ideas sound great in theory, you might say, but how will I practically achieve this? Well, I operate on the principle of teaching you the skills required to be an independent thinker who can tackle anything that comes your way! Not only will I prepare you with everything you need to know so that you can walk into the final exam with confidence, but I will also sprinkle in some study advice and questions that target higher order thinking to bolster your learning outside of our classes. My classes will involve a lot of active recall and spaced revision to aid with your memorisation of the content, but I will also ensure that all the concepts we learn are explained in a way such that you gain a holistic understanding.

You can rest assured that unlike other tutors you may have encountered in the past, I recognise that science is all about gaining an understanding of the world around us and solving the problems that arise from its complexity, rather then merely rote-memorising isolated facts. So, if you're after an approachable, flexible and experienced tutor who's truly passionate about science education and will provide the support you need to ace your year, then definitely get in touch with me :)
