Online Science & Biology tutoring · NSW
Small online classes of no more than 5 students for Year 7–10 Science and Year 11–12 HSC Biology, taught by a qualified NSW Science and Biology teacher with 10 years in the classroom.
No judgement. Just clear explanations, until it clicks.
How classes run
All AHA Learning classes are online and limited to a maximum of 5 students, because students learn better when they can ask questions, take part and get individual attention.
Small groups make it easy to see where each student is at, spot gaps in understanding and adapt the lesson when something isn’t clicking.
Students don’t sit quietly while a teacher talks. They take part in every lesson.
A supportive space to ask questions, make mistakes and build confidence, without feeling lost in a large classroom.
Small online classes from Year 7 through to the HSC, following the NSW syllabus and built around understanding, not memorisation.
Build strong foundations and confidence before senior Science, and fill gaps from earlier years.

How to get started
Before your child joins a class, we get to know them, so every lesson starts from where they actually are.
A quick catch-up on Google Meet (parents are welcome to join). The student completes a short assessment so we can see exactly where they’re at, how they like to learn, what they find tricky and what they’re aiming for.
Enrol for the term in the class that suits the student, with lessons shaped by what we learnt in the AHA Check-in, and start building towards those AHA moments.
Pick a time that suits you. You’ll get a confirmation email with your Google Meet link.

Resources
Every student gets resources written to match how we teach: simple, clear and focused on understanding.
Concise notes for every topic, with complicated ideas broken into simple steps.
Exam-style questions for each topic, from the basics up to the hardest band.
Exam papers that mirror real school and HSC exams, so students walk into assessments knowing exactly what to expect.
Worked answers and marking criteria, so students know exactly what examiners want.

Meet your teacher
I know what it’s like when Science just doesn’t make sense, because I was once that student too.
Science and Biology didn’t always come naturally to me, so I understand the frustration of hearing something explained and still thinking, “I just don’t get it.”
That experience, combined with 10 years of teaching in NSW classrooms, has shaped how I teach today. My strength is taking complicated Science and Biology concepts and breaking them down into simple, clear ideas that students can actually understand and apply.
Working With Children Check verified · WWC0569485E
I have extensive experience supporting students with learning difficulties, EAL/D backgrounds and gaps in foundational knowledge. Sometimes students don’t need more hours of tutoring. They need concepts explained in a way that finally makes sense to them, with no judgement, by someone who just gets it.
Through AHA Learning, I help Year 7–10 Science and Year 11–12 Biology students build understanding, confidence and the skills they need to reach their potential.
What I’m looking for with every student is the AHA moment, when a difficult concept suddenly makes sense and they think, “Oh… now I get it!”

Testimonials
“Learning with Larissa completely changed how I approach Biology AND I started to actually enjoy it! My marks went from low 70s to consistently scoring 90+. Larissa explained things in a way that actually made sense!”
“The small class sizes make such a difference. I never felt embarrassed to ask questions, and the practice exams were incredibly close to the real HSC paper.”
“I loved the support Larissa provided to me and it was great I got to study at home in my PJ’s while still learning some cool Science!”
“I wanted to say how much I appreciated your teaching style because it made me love Biology and now I am doing a Science degree!”
FAQ

Yes. Every AHA Learning class runs live on Google Meet, so students anywhere in NSW can join from home with no travel time.
A maximum of 5. That’s small enough for every student to ask questions, take part and get individual attention, which is how those AHA moments happen.
Year 7–10 Science and Year 11–12 Biology, following the NSW syllabus.
Absolutely. We have extensive experience supporting students with learning difficulties, EAL/D backgrounds and gaps in foundational knowledge. Concepts are explained clearly, at the student’s pace, with no judgement.
Yes. Year 11 classes follow the new NSW Biology 11–12 syllabus from 2027, covering Cells as the Basis of Life, Cells to Systems, and Evolution and Ecosystems. Year 12 students sitting the 2027 HSC continue with the current syllabus (Modules 5–8), and Year 12 moves to the new syllabus from Term 4, 2027, ready for the first new HSC exam in 2028.
Yes, though spots are limited each week. 1-on-1 lessons follow the same structured program as our classes, taught in order, just with individual attention. They are $110 an hour for Years 7–10 Science and $130 an hour for Years 11–12 Biology. Many families start with small-group classes, which give students 2–3 hours of teaching a week for a similar cost.
Yes. Every new student starts with a free 15-minute AHA Check-in on Google Meet (parents welcome). Your child completes a short assessment so we can see exactly where they’re at and how they learn best, before you decide to enrol. See how it works.
A laptop or computer with a camera, a microphone and a stable internet connection, plus a pen, a workbook for taking notes and a quiet place to learn. Classes run on Google Meet, and you’ll get the link by email.
