Experience
I specialize in teaching advanced content to students. For example, I guided a Year 10 student through Year 12 Maths Methods material, and in Year 11, I taught him Year 12 Specialist Maths. This preparation ensured he was well-equipped for Year 12, leading him to become the dux of his school and earn a scholarship at Monash University. Of course, the student's achievement was largely due to his own efforts—he diligently completed all the homework I assigned from Year 10 to 12—but I'm glad I could contribute to his success. Besides teaching advanced content, I also help weaker students achieve their target scores, enabling them to gain entry into the courses they aim for. I assign homework to all my students and consistently review their work to ensure they thoroughly understand the concepts being taught. Subjects that I teach: - Specialist Maths (Units 1-4) - Maths Methods(Units 1-4) - Further Maths (Units 1-4) - IB Maths - Secondary Maths year 7-10 - Primary Maths year 3-6 - University Maths (up to 2nd year) Here are some of the praises I've got from parents/students: - From Linda, the parent of two students I tutored from Years 10 to 12 and Years 7 to 12: "As a mum, I need to look for a tutor who is knowledgeable, committed to my children's needs, and gives me the confidence to help my children to achieve high in VCE. My children started their lesson with Tien at the beginning of high school and was sad to finish the lessons with Tien when they completed their VCE. Tien was very supportive throughout the years, particularly with V.C.E. He has the quality of a teacher, he is patience, engaging, respectful and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Tien to any parents/students who genuinely want to excel or to learn." - From Ms. Nguyen, a financial consultant, whose children I taught from Years 10 to 12 and Years 8 to 12: "I have found Tien to be extremely helpful, patient and supportive in his teaching. He planned the lesson ahead of time and gave the children a lot of question time. He checked up on homework and provided me as a parent with regular updates on the children's learning progress and suggested ways to support them with school work during the week. He also supported his students in coping with VCE pressures and finding ways to help them learn and perform their best including taking questions outside his teaching lessons During COVID-19 2020 and 2021 years, Tien taught my daughter online. He had been tremendous in guiding my daughter through VCE. I have recommended Tien to family and friends and have received great feedback from them on his teaching their children as well" Rates: * $40/hr I conduct lessons exclusively online via Zoom!

Hobbies
I have a strong faith in God and believe in the power of giving. Sundays are special to me, as I spend them at church, assisting with the service and worshiping. As an active member of the Melbourne University Mathematics & Statistics Society, I enjoy planning events focused on mathematics and careers. These events are both fun and educational, providing students with insights into job opportunities and the maths industry. In addition to running my own business, I volunteer frequently and attend social and networking events. I also enjoy reading the Bible and books on personal development. I am a lifelong learner and Maths enthusiast, always seeking new knowledge and ways to deepen my understanding of mathematical concepts.
