About Casey
Hi, I'm Casey. I tutor SACE Physics, Maths and Chemistry online from Adelaide. I studied Physics at ANU and hold South Australian teacher registration. I enjoy working with students who ask why a method works, including those who have stopped asking because they worry the answer should be obvious. A lesson with me involves discussion, plenty of working and time to check the result. We can take a difficult idea seriously while keeping the conversation relaxed.
Tutoring experience
I have twelve years of tutoring experience, helping Stage 1 and Stage 2 students strengthen foundations and prepare for assessments. My work includes explaining mathematical relationships, supporting scientific calculations and helping students make sense of experimental results. I have worked with learners catching up on missed topics as well as those looking for more demanding applications. A recurring focus is showing enough reasoning for someone else to follow an answer, rather than relying on a correct number alone.
Teaching approach
Bring a recent question, some feedback or a topic that feels unsettled. We work out what you already understand and choose a useful next step. I often ask for an estimate or a sketch before a calculation, then compare it with the final result. During revision, we mix familiar questions with a few that require a different approach. We finish with a short recap in your own words and a practical task for the week. I adjust the amount of prompting as you become more confident.
