Geography
Geography was one of my favourite subjects in school, and I was able to maintain an average of 80-90% for three consecutive years. During my grade eleven year I achieved first position for Geography.
Life Sciences (Biology)
I am passionate about Biology and learning about the human body. I am able to design easier techniques to remember and understand the complexity that may come up with certain topics and have a good general understanding of the subject.
English
I am a qualified high school English educator with in-depth knowledge of curriculum content and assessment. Additionally, my BA degree included an English major. Furthermore, I have over 350 hours of teaching English as a foreign language through online TEFL work.
Art
I am passionate about both the practical and theoretical aspects of Fine Art. I was recognised as the top art achiever in Year 12, and I am able to apply both theoretical and practical elements together for creating pieces or analysing artwork.
Art History
I have a clear understanding of the different stages of various art pieces and styles throughout history, and knowledge around what inspired and influenced art during those historical periods.
Mathematics
I believe that having a good understanding of the building blocks of maths, which is built during these years, is necessary for the mathematics covered in the high school years.
