What students and parents
say about my tutoring

Dear Mr Lewis,

Thank you so much for teaching us this year; you have made all of the concepts we’ve covered interesting and easily understandable, which has made all of us perform much better than we likely would have without you. Considering we only had a 25% chance of getting you this year, I’d say we’re all very lucky. All the best for the future.

Dear Mr Lewis,

I cannot hope to express all my gratitude and appreciation for you through this one card, but I hope you can understand how much you mean to me and the impact you have had on my life. I once read a quote that said, “a good teacher is like a candle- it consumes itself to light the way for others”. After having you as my teacher over this past year, I have experienced this first-hand.

Your broad and deep understanding allows you to always answer my questions clearly and has inspired me to push myself to gain a greater understanding of all sciences. Your quick facts, witty humour and ability to radiate positivity have made the content so engaging and made every lesson something to look forward to.

As well as being a highly intelligent person, you have shown me how exceptional of a human being you are. The random deep insights into life, happiness and what to do in the future are lessons that I will hold close to my heart forever as I try to navigate my way through my life. Every single effort you dedicated towards me and the rest of our class will not be forgotten, and I hope the magnitude of these on all our lives is evident. Whatever your future holds, I am sure you will continue to change lives! All the best, I will miss you! 🙁

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you draft summative practical reports?

Yes, I can provide complete drafting for summative practical reports. I can review your report and provide feedback that helps you improve the quality and depth of your report before submission.

What levels of chemistry do you teach?

I teach chemistry at various levels, primarily focusing on high school students from years 8 to 11 and 12. I have a deep understanding of different state curriculums, including the (State curriculum name), so I adapt my lessons to match your specific needs, whether you’re just starting with the basics or diving into more advanced topics.

How are the lessons delivered?

All lessons are online, so you can join anywhere that suits you. I use a high-tech setup that allows us to go through material effectively. Think interactive whiteboards, live demonstrations, and plenty of visual aids. This format works very well for science subjects like chemistry, biology, and physics because it allows us to review tricky concepts as often as needed. Plus, you get to learn in an environment where you’re comfortable.

Do you offer one-on-one tutoring or group sessions?

Yes, I offer both. One-on-one sessions let us focus on your questions and learning style, which can be helpful if you have particular areas you want to work on. Group sessions, on the other hand, are great if you enjoy learning with others and bouncing ideas around. It depends on what feels suitable for you. I’m flexible with either approach.

Do I need any special equipment or materials?

No special equipment is necessary. You just need your textbooks, a pen and paper for note-taking, and a desktop computer or laptop with a stable internet connection. I’ll provide the rest, like online resources and learning tools. It’s all about keeping things straightforward so we can focus on the learning.

Is your chemistry tutoring aligned with the VCE curriculum?

Yes, it is. I’ve written several textbooks for the South Australian Year 11-12 curriculum, so I understand what’s expected in these courses. I also have access to past exams and plenty of resources to ensure you’re well-prepared. Whether you’re studying under the VCE, QCAA, HSC, or SACE, our sessions cover what you need to feel confident in your assignments and exams.
