UniMelb Science Tutor Dave

Dave is the GOAT of all tutors! He's very empathetic, kind, and patient. He understands what I'm trying to get across in my writing, and he knows how to break it down in sections that makes it easily understandable for my AuADHD brain. He's very thorough, to the point and also provides relevance as to the 'whys' of his feedback. He's given me a lot of good reference points and structure to write an amazing lab report and even after the first consultation, it has made a world of difference to how I approach synthesising my literature review and discussion. He's changed how I look at lab reports and I've actually been enjoying the process without the added stress. I'm very appreciative of his dedication and investment to your learning journey rather than just regurgitating a fixed method, and he can cater to your specific study needs. 10/10 recommend.

Dave is an incredible tutor! Not only does he have an unparalleled work ethic (e.g. he always responds to questions promptly and returns feedback in a punctual manner), he's also generous with his time, very thorough with his review of assignments and presents his advice in easily digestible and kind ways. During my time as his student, his desire to teach and help me excel could really be seen and it was a breath of fresh air to have a tutor that adapted to my learning style and pace. His support has greatly bumped up my grades 100%! Genuine, efficient and knows his stuff, he's a tutor that I would undoubtedly recommend.

I’ve been taught by Dave and have always found him really helpful and easy to learn from. He explains things clearly and easy to follow, especially when it comes to psychology concepts that can get quite confusing sometimes. One thing I really like about his teaching is that he doesn’t just tell you the answer. He actually guides you and talks you through the reasoning, so you understand how to approach similar questions yourself. He’s also very patient and happy to explain things in a different way when it doesn’t make sense the first time. I’ve also talked with him quite a bit about GAMSAT S2 and he’s helped me with organising ideas and structuring essays etc. What’s good about him is that he doesn’t just give you generic advice but rather helps you work out what works well with your writing style. Overall he’s very knowledgeable (just look at his grades), easy to talk to and he genuinely cares about his students. I’d strongly recommend Dave for anyone looking for psychology or GAMSAT section 2 tutoring.

Dave is a great tutor. He's so responsive I get questions answered immediately from anywhere between 5 minutes to 1 hour. He gives very constructive feedback that will maximise the amount of marks gained for assignments. Extremely effecient feedback, teaches how to structure and write Lab Reports to a high H1 level. He's the goat.
