About

About Me: Hi! I'm Leo and I graduated from Sydney Boys High School in with an ATAR of 99.85. I am currently a second year studying Medicine at UNSW. I have tutored for over two years both privately, at 2 different tutoring companies and coached debating for a period of time. ****************************** Credentials: ⭐English Advanced: 94/100 ⭐Mathematics Extension 2: 97 /100 ⭐Mathematics Extension 1 : 99/100 ⭐Economics: 96/100 ⭐Physics: 95/100 ⭐Modern History (Year 11 Accelerated): 94/100 ⭐UCAT: 98th Percentile ⭐ATAR: 99.85 ⭐Valid Working with Children's Check My students come from a range of different backgrounds, schools and skill levels including top selective school HSC students to those in years 7-8. Their achievements include: ⭐One student dropping just 4 MARKS in all of his internal assessments in year 12 Mathematics Extension 1 ⭐Two students both awarded full scholarships to Scotch College ⭐One student becoming Year 11 Dux of their grade one year after beginning lessons ⭐One student who was awarded joint Dux of their cohort in 2020 ⭐Many other students who have made huge improvements from where they began ****************************** Availability Weekends but weekdays are also possible. I am generally quite flexible. Feel free to contact me about specific times. ***************************** What do I offer? I offer both face to face and online lessons in private or small group settings and am willing to travel to places nearby (<15 minutes drive) from Chatswood or Concord. I primarily specialise in teaching Mathematics (all levels up to Extension 2), Economics and Physics, however can offer help in other subjects I have experience in. ****************************** Teaching Methodology: Throughout high school, I pretty much enjoyed every subject I took. I love the logic and problem solving involved in mathematics, the incredible real world applications of science to explain phenomena beyond our comprehension, and looking at how different authors and historical figures shaped our modern society. I chose to become a tutor because I want to be able to instill this passion in all my students so that our weekly lessons are not a chore but rather something we look forward to! I don't want to be the type of tutor that does the absolute bare minimum. My services include ⭐Provide personalised and structured lessons and homework suiting your workload ⭐Provide free university and medical admissions guidance ⭐Squeeze in extra lessons near exams ⭐Give you access to my notes and exam papers as well as my collection from other schools ⭐Teaching you HOW TO STUDY and the most efficient methods that have worked for me ⭐Helping you balance study with extracurriculars ⭐Review ALL of your questions and short answer responses and ask me questions WHENEVER YOU LIKE Particularly for Mathematics and Science, my teaching methods are example based. I believe that understanding content is best conducted when applied to typical questions and far more effective than memorizing formulas or generic steps to solving a question. ****************************** Rates: ⭐Face to face tutoring: $60 per hour ⭐Online tutoring: $50 per hour ⭐Group tutoring: $40 per person per hour (2-4 students, form a group with friends or just contact me and I can find a group for you) ****************************** Contact details: ⭐Email - or reply to this advertisement Good luck and all the best! ****************************** ✔️ Reviews I was never very comfortable with Mathematics or English before beginning lessons with Leo. However through his guidance I can safely say I walked into the HSC more confident than ever before, gaining a mark I was very proud of. I can't thank him or recommend him highly enough to anyone else. Jackson
