Jan was an excellent maths tutor. She had a great way of breaking down difficult concepts into simple, clear steps, which really helped me understand and boosted my confidence in HSC Maths Advanced. Jan also shared excellent exam tips and strategies that helped me consistently improve my results throughout the course. I highly recommend Jan as a maths tutor!

Jan tutored my daughter in extension 2 maths for year 12, and was fantastic. Her lessons were always personalised, well prepared, and structured, and she offered excellent advice and tips for exam technique. She has a thorough knowledge of the extension 2 course and was a high quality, experienced tutor. I would highly recommend Jan to anyone looking for a tutor for the HSC mathematics courses.

Jan tutored our daughter for Maths Extension 1 in Year 12. She was recommended to us by a friend who also had an excellent experience with Jan.
Jan exceeded our already high expectations. She provided personalised lesson plans, and valuable resources, without overwhelming our daughter with excessive workload.
She also provided helpful exam tips and was always available for extra questions and lessons.
We are greatly thankful to Jan and couldn’t recommend her more.

Jan has been an amazing tutor for Mathematics Extension 2! Jan is an enthusiastic tutor whose lessons are always well prepared, where she thoroughly explains every question. Her notes are clear and very beneficial as the additional questions helped to ensure I understood all of the concepts within topics. She was not only able to help build my confidence, but also offered advice to do with study tips and exam technique in order to build efficiency when answering questions. I highly recommend Jan as a Mathematics tutor!

Jan has tutored me throughout Year 12 in Mathematics Extension 1. She has been very encouraging and helpful with my work, assisting with the structure of my study plans to make sure I have the best chance at feeling good for my test. Also, for any concepts which I can't quite understand in class, I am confident that I will have a clear and concise explanation, making them much more approachable. For anybody needing to find that click of confidence, I highly recommend Jan!

I've always found keeping up with the advanced maths course difficult, especially when I couldn't understand the terminology. After some pretty disappointing results, I decided to get a tutor to help, and after trying a few different tutors, I had a session with Jan and very quickly noticed a difference. Having a tutor that understood how I learn really helped and made the course less confronting. My results greatly improved over time and going into the final exam I was highly confident in my ability. It was also ridiculously easy to communicate with Jan and swap sessions which really helped my busy schedule. I highly recommend Jan!

Jan is an excellent maths tutor. She takes the time to thoroughly explain concepts in different ways so they are well understood, and significantly helped me gain confidence in my areas of weakness and general mathematical ability. With Jan's guidance, reassurance, and patience, I went from failing Year 12 Mathematics Advanced to a Band 6 in my HSC. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their maths skills and confidence in the subject.

Jan has been the best maths extension 2 tutor ever! She has a deep knowledge of the material and her teaching style is incredibly nurturing and personal. in you’re looking for a tutor that can not only expertly teach maths ext 2 but can also guide and support you through the sometimes challenging learning period, then call Jan!

Jan has been an incredible help with helping me improve confidence and my maths skills in both advanced and extension 1 maths since starting to get help from her half way through year 12. The increase in my marks was also very apparent as she also helped me with working out proper study routines that maximised my efficiency for the time available.
Every lesson you came out feeling like significant progress had been made and your grasp of the maths had improved a lot.

Jan has tutored our son in both Advanced and Extension 1 maths. Jan is diligent, enthusiastic and knowledgeable and each session is well prepared, with clear directions for preparation and follow up practice exams and questions. Our son's confidence and skills have grown because of these sessions. We would highly recommend Jan as a tutor.

Jan went above and beyond the role of a tutor to help my daughter. She provided incredibly thoughtful support and attention to her specific needs. She enabled her to regain confidence in a difficult subject after a tricky situation.

Since the beginning of year 12 I’ve received lessons from Jan for 2 unit Mathematics, experiencing an incredible turn around in my marks. With these lessons I’ve felt both prepared and comfortable going into each exam and achieved a significant improvement in exam marks. Each lesson is well structured and any explanations were clear and easy to understand.

Jan’s step by step explanations of past paper questions really helped me feel finally confident in X1 Maths. The resources she used and provided also allowed me to structure my own maths notes in a way that benefited me during revision sessions for exams.
