About Julia
I’ve been a private tutor for over 7 years, teaching students from across Years 7 to 12. I've worked as a head science tutor at two tutoring centres, running small collaborative classrooms as well as leading training development by creating my own teaching resources to personalise to my students' needs.
I started tutoring because I'm passionate about making a positive difference to students in their learning journey. My joy is getting to see students find their confidence recognising their improvements overtime as they learn to become well-rounded, independent & strong thinkers.
I draw from my own experiences of having felt lost and confused in my high school learning journey. It was largely due to the powerful guidance and help I received from tutoring that I became a HSC All-Rounder and DUX of my high school (having ranked 1st internally for 5 subjects - Biology, Earth & Environmental Science, English Advanced, Legal Studies & Ancient History).
Since then I have tutored over 50+ students in HSC Science & English - 80% of whom have gone on to achieve Band 6 results.
Recently, I completed a Bachelor of Commerce and Arts at the University of Sydney and am now currently working as a strategy management consultant in the tech space.

What I can do for you
I am a science tutor specialist for HSC Biology - Year 11 & 12 (focusing on the new syllabus) and junior science across Years 7 to 10. I offer tutoring for both individual or group and use all using my own personalised topic notebooks which can be tailored to follow the teaching schedule specific to the student’s school curriculum.
Collaborative learning is the proven success formula I use for helping guide students to understand even the most complex stuff! Tutoring shouldn’t just be a one-way highway of only knowledge sharing from tutor to student. For me, learning is an active, constructive process: to learn new information, ideas or skills, you have to work engage with the content in purposeful & interactive ways that match the student’s learning style e.g. whether via verbal discussion, whiteboard mind mapping or Kahoot quizzes. With 7+ years of teaching experience in collaborative classrooms, I’ve seen first hand the success my students have had as they actively work with the course material to go beyond memorising theory and develop their own independent thinking.
Typical Lesson breakdown
Lessons are typically 1 H 30 MINS however I’m happy to accommodate to the preferences of the student (either for longer or shorter sessions).
I can tutor face-to-face (at the student’s place or library - if in the local South West Sydney area) or online via Zoom, depending on the student’s availability & convenience.
The general teaching structure of my lessons are:
1. Introduction & Refresher - 10 min
We discuss what’s working well, what’s tricky and the focus for the week as well as review the prior week to reinforce learning.
2. Theory Explainer & Discussion - 40 min
We take a deep dive into the learning topic, breaking up the material so that it is easy to understand with step-by-step guidance.
3. Put-Into-Practice - 30 min
We apply the theory we learn to exam—style questions together. Insightful feedback on answers are provided to all questions to help build exam technique and confidence.
4. Recap & Questions - 10 min
We summarise the key takeaways for the lesson and create a plan of next steps to continue the learning independently for the rest of the week. Opportunity to ask questions you are unsure of to clarify your understanding.
Recommendations

I honestly don’t think I would’ve made it through HSC Biology without Julia. For over two years, she’s been the one constant in my learning who actually took the time to understand how I learn and made sure I truly understood every concept.
At school, I really struggled with my biology teacher’s approach. No matter how hard I tried, it just never clicked—and it was incredibly frustrating to feel like the lack of progress was blamed on us rather than the teaching method. It got to the point where I tried to move schools and even wrote letters to principals because I felt so stuck and helpless.
But every week, coming to Julia’s tutoring sessions felt like a breath of fresh air. She explained things clearly, patiently, and always in a way that made sense. She never made me feel like I was falling behind—instead, she genuinely wanted me (and every student) to succeed. I could tell how much effort she put into tailoring her sessions to suit us, and that kind of support made all the difference.
If you’re looking for a tutor who not only knows the content but truly cares and teaches in a way that works, I can’t recommend Julia enough.Julia is honestly one of the best teachers I’ve ever had for Year 12 Biology. She explains things so clearly and always finds a way to make even the hardest topics (like immune responses and pathogen adaptations) make sense. Her teaching style is super supportive, calm, and encouraging, which really helped me feel more confident going into the HSC.
I remember one session where she made a quiz game to help us remember the stages of the immune response—it was actually fun, and I remembered it way better than just reading notes. She always checked in to make sure I understood, and if I didn’t, she’d explain it in a different way until it clicked.
Julia is also super organised and genuinely cares about her students doing well. You can tell she puts in effort to personalise her lessons and wants you to succeed. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone who wants a clear, supportive, and reliable tutor for HSC Biology!
