Reviews

Lachlan is an amazing tutor who taught me the material for my exams in a logical and engaging way. He also provided an approach and mindset that allowed me to succeed on my own throughout high school. His invaluable support, and awesome in depth marking allowed me to refine my writing technique and achieve near full marks in many of my subjects. Lachlan's help and mentoring allowed me to fulfil my academic goals and received an offer to study Medicine at UNSW. I would highly recommend Lachlan to any student who is looking to learn from the best!

I have heard great things from students of mine who have had lessons with him, that he is engaging and really knows how to enable students to thrive and improve their skills

Working alongside Lachlan the past year in Medicine has shown me his that he is not only an extremely hard worker but capable of conveying information in a comprehensible manner. Lachlan is friendly and approachable, qualities I'm sure his tutoring students would appreciate and from seeing his genuine dedication to his tutoring students, I strongly recommend his tutoring services!
