SPECIALIST ECONOMICS TUTOR/ATAR 99.80/ HSC State Ranker About Me I graduated from UNSW in 2022, achieving a High Distinction grade in a Bachelors of Actuarial Studies and Commerce. I am employed in the financial services industry, with over 3 years of industry experience. I completed the HSC in 2017, graduating from Fort Street High School with a 99.80 ATAR and ranking first in economics and modern history. Over 7 years, I have worked as a private tutor for more than 40 HSC students, mostly on economics. I specialise in teaching year 12 economics. For a student to master economics, they must not only achieve a comprehensive understanding of syllabus outcomes and textbook material, but be able to go beyond the textbook to see and understand the world in all its complexity. A student must grasp the intricacies of global forces and the interplay of economic, political and social paradigms that construe our world today. Only then can they grasp the real world application of economic concepts and theory as explained from their textbook. A student of economics must recognise the economic foundations that underpin all aspects of everyday life. Economics is not just a subject consumed with social theory, nor it is an exercise in rote-learning. Rather, it is an art - a means of explaining developments in the world today. It is the one subject applicable in all areas of life after the HSC, and a fine practitioner of economics will be able to leverage their mastery of this subject in their adult years. As you understand more about the concepts in and beyond the textbook, you will see improvements in your academic performance.
