Hi everyone,

My name is Amy and I am excited to join the Impact Tutoring team. I have a passion for the

natural environment and am a Bachelor of Science (Environmental Sciences) graduate from

the University of Waikato. I also work in the sustainability space and have held workshops in

schools to educate students about climate change.

During my final year of university, I was involved in a Scientists in Schools work project,

planning and teaching interactive lessons, with interesting experiments, for primary school

students. My enjoyment in this project encouraged me to become an Online Science Tutor in

2022.

Seeking new teaching experiences, I was drawn to Impact’s friendly community and

clear commitment to helping all students reach their potential. It is crucial to me to construct

stimulating lessons for students, using different tools to support different learning styles.

I see my role as a Science Tutor as an important opportunity to inspire, mentor and empower

students to make a positive difference in their communities.

In my spare time, I enjoy creating artworks using mostly pastels and acrylic and watercolour

paints. I am a member of the Tauranga Society of Artists and was their Media Manager for

over a year, creating designs for social media posts and websites to promote their popular

art exhibitions. I also enjoy photography, spending time with my pets, playing sports, quizzes

and nature walks.

I look forward to making new connections in my role at Impact Tutoring!
