Tuition/Teaching Experience
A year of tutoring at the upper secondary and upper primary levels.
Over 3 years tutoring at university level. Currently a full-time lecturer at a local polytechnic (Physical chemistry, Inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry). Job scope includes large class lecturing (>150 students), small classroom teaching (<25 students) and teaching on a consulting basis (1 to 3 students)
I have a distinctive flair for explaining concept that students might find difficult to grasp, simplifying their approach to solving problems and answering questions (2013 student survey: 96-100% of students agreed that I was effective as a teacher).
