Your PERFECT Preference List
Your PERFECT Preference List
I don’t have to tell you that having a plan for next year is the smartest way to stop stressing about your ATAR. So let’s put together a plan and get rid of the stress!
Your time is precious…and so is your future!
There’s so much for you to do at the moment. Between studying for SACs and keeping up with your homework, career planning is something you want to get around to, but there’s just no time to fit it in.
As a VCE teacher and qualified careers practitioner, I understand and can tell you all about the benefits of knowing what you want to do next year. The most important one is that it helps take the pressure off! Think about it…if you knew that your dream career was waiting for you, and that there were heaps of ways to get there, no matter what ATAR you get, wouldn’t that make you feel a whole lot less stressed?’
Having said that, I remember what it was like to be buried in books and hyper-focused on VCE, and feeling like I didn’t even know where to start with career planning. And in the midst of all that, talking to a careers advisor felt like a massive waste of time that could be better spent studying.
That’s where Your PERFECT Preference List comes in
What if you could get the benefits of having a plan in place WITHOUT having to do all the research or organising an appointment with an expert?
Now you can!
I LOVE career planning and showing students all of the amazing options available to them. All I need from you is some answers to some key questions (I’ll send you a google form and it’ll take you no more than 20mins!) and from there I will do the research for you and send you your completed plan.
What Do You Get?
There are 3 package options to choose from:
1) Solid Start
4 personalised course suggestions to start your research and hone in on a range of courses that would suit you.

FAQs
Can’t I just wait until later?
You can…but do you really think that you’ll have extra time throughout the year to really sink your teeth into career planning? School is only going to get busier as we get closer to exams, and the earlier you get onto this, the more benefit you get from being organised and knowing you can get where you want to go without all the added stress!
Will I still need to do research anyway?
I call this Your PERFECT Preference List for a reason - Your final list will be Personalised, Extensive, Relevant to your interests, Future focused and put together by an Experienced and qualified Careers Teacher. (See what I did there?!)
The more detailed information you can give me in the form I’ll send you, the more personalised the list will be. But even if you have NO IDEA what you want to do when you finish school, your answers will give me what I need to significantly narrow the field down for you to courses that match your interests and priorities, giving you a clear direction to work from before you submit your final preferences to VTAC.
AND if you really want it all done for you, the VIP package includes 21 days of support where you can provide feedback about how you feel about each course and revisions of your list to make sure you’re 100% happy with it.
I’ve already done the Morrisby and got my results. How is this different?
Your PERFECT Preference List is completely different to the Morrisby, Myers-Briggs and any other personality or aptitude tests.
While I absolutely believe that tests like the Morrisby can be helpful in career planning, I prefer to take a narrative approach, meaning that I want to hear what YOU have to say about your interests, and the things you do and don’t enjoy about school, your extracurricular activities, paid or volunteer work, and the things you choose to do in your spare time.
You are the expert on your life and experiences, and by hearing what you have to say and the way you say it, I can get a clear sense of where you’re at now and what you will enjoy moving forward.
The questions I will send you are similar to what I would ask if you had a face to face (or online) session with me, and they’re straightforward for you to answer because they’re about YOU and things in your day-to-day life.
What if I don’t like the courses you choose?
I love career planning and finding really amazing options that will interest you is my favourite part of what I do. Each set of courses I curate for students is personalised and comes with an explanation as to why I believe the options I’ve given you are right for you.
Having said that, the personalised list of courses I put together for you will only be as good as the information you provide in the initial form I send you. I have carefully considered each question in the form, and your answers help me understand what you’re looking for in a course and career (even when the questions seem unrelated - there’s a method to my madness!).
If you receive your list and don’t like the options provided, but you can see that it matches the answers you provided, contact me and we can upgrade your package to make sure you end up with a list you’re happy with.
If you receive your list and think that, based on your answers to the questions I provided, I’ve missed the mark, please contact me to organise either a new list at no extra cost or a full refund.
