Bio

Hi, I'm Larysha, a life-long learner with a deep interest in science and language. I believe learning is enjoyable when it is useful, so I like to focus on application of the content in my lessons.

I have over 3 years' experience as an undergraduate teaching assistant and private tutor. I work hard to help students understand why the content is useful and worth learning through interesting applications, to foster intrinsic motivation. I aim to be patient and encouraging to help students develop confidence and to enjoy the process.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 11 IEB

While I coped well with high school math, it was only in university that I really enjoyed it and saw its applications - so this is what I try and make clear to students. I have tutored math from grade 4 to grade 10 for the past 3 years with Edu Core Solutions.

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

English has always been a personal passion; the power of words to open new channels of thinking makes language an imperative foundation for all problem solving and subjects.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 11 IEB

I have devoted over 6 years to studying the biological sciences and have professional industry experience as a plant geneticist for the past 2 years. I enjoy teaching from the more "big picture" perspective of the high school syllabus and linking these topics to real-world applications.

History

Grade 1 - Grade 11 IEB

I love history because it wraps every other subject (like math or science) into a story of struggle that makes, what could be dry and dead content, become alive. The politics, systems, and technology that govern our world are made a little less baffling when we understand their context.
