About

✅98 ENGLISH ADV ✅99.90 ATAR ✅100 3U MATHS ✅JR 2019 Hi, I'm Edwin! I graduated from James Ruse Agricultural High School in 2019, currently studying Medicine. Since graduation, I've already mentored over 170 students in English and Maths. I have tutored extensively both privately and at a major HSC English tuition centre, so therefore have built up insider knowledge from experienced HSC markers about the demands of the new English HSC syllabus and exactly what markers are looking for. Crucially, I don't just teach the approaches that I applied for HSC, but have never stopped refining and adding to them since. I figure out everything possible that you can do to improve your marks so you don't have to. I push students to achieve maximum results quickly and effectively, and I know exactly how to get you to where you want to be and even FAR BEYOND - such as the outstanding results below: 👍 Highest HSC marks of 97 (x2), 96 (x3), 95 (x5) and 94 (x9) in English Advanced 👍 Highest ATARs of 99.95 achieved by 5 students, 99.90 by 7 students 👍 STATE RANK of 17th in NSW Mathematics Advanced 👍 EVERY student in 2023 achieved a Band 6 (90+) for subjects I tutored 👍 Offers from Medicine at USyd, UNSW, Monash, UniMelb, WSU, JMP, UQ and more 👍 A student who started lessons ONLY 4 weeks before the HSC, improved from her trials mark of 63 to a HSC exam mark of 88. Another student with a previous mark of 65 then scored 85 in the Trials and 92 in the HSC with my help. 👍 A student starting from outside the top 100 at James Ruse placed inside the top 20 for trials after one term of lessons. SCHOOLS TAUGHT INCLUDE: James Ruse, Baulkham Hills, Sydney Grammar, Sydney Girls, Sydney Boys, North Sydney Boys, North Sydney Girls, Abbotsleigh, Meriden, Pymble Ladies' College, Shore, PLC Sydney, Ascham, Knox Grammar, Penrith, The King's School, Normanhurst Boys, Hornsby Girls and more. ______________________________________________________________________ 2019 HSC Exam Marks English Adv = 98 (same mark as 2019 STATE RANK) Maths Ext 2 = 97 Maths Ext 1 = 100 I achieved ranks within James Ruse of: 2nd in Maths Ext 2, 4th in Maths Ext 1, 4th in English Adv ______________________________________________________________________ WHY SHOULD YOU CONSIDER ME AS A TUTOR? ⭐ TEACHING EXPERIENCE + RESULTS ⭐ I've taught over 100 students since graduating in 2019 in English and Mathematics who have achieved outstanding HSC results as detailed above. Students regularly see their ranks jump inside the top 10 of their schools within a few short months of classes. I also have experience as a Science Olympiad tutor for James Ruse students, of which 4 students placed inside the TOP 24 NATIONWIDE, with 2 STUDENTS placing inside the TOP 4 IN AUSTRALIA. ⭐ TEACHING STYLE ⭐ I know exactly how a tutor's passion can easily influence their students, and that's why my focus is always on helping my students become passionate about their subjects. My comprehensive yet interesting explanations turn lessons into a real experience - so that students find their subjects exciting and they find learning fulfilling! Because of this, they have a much higher chance of understanding and remembering content during their exams. I get students thinking and discussing in class - this way they learn not only the content, but through my guidance, they learn all the logic and thought process behind everything that I teach. ⭐ EXAM TECHNIQUE FOR CONSISTENTLY HIGH MARKS ⭐ Knowing the content is not enough to achieve outstanding marks. There are so many students out there that are highly smart and hard-working, yet are repeatedly disappointed with their results and eventually lose their motivation to study. I want my students to NEVER have to experience such ups and downs, so I also put a high amount of focus on exam technique. My students are constantly amazed at all the small things that I introduce to them in order to make further gains on their exam performance. Everyone who I have taught walks into the exam room with a broad range of strategies and approaches that they can apply, taking the stress out of exams. ⭐ WHAT YOU GET ⭐ Lessons are HIGHLY individualised - I structure all my lessons around what you want, adjusting the way I teach based on your preferences. For English, I don't just want my students to be satisfied with producing well-written essays. I teach them exactly how to make their writing STAND OUT in any exam. They're also highly adaptable during exams (despite already having 20/20 essays under their belt) and are capable of answering the most unexpected of questions. I achieve this by covering these points in classes: ⭕ Breaking down all the complexities of essay writing into a SIMPLE system that guarantees top marks every time ⭕ Facilitating in-depth critical discussion and providing notes to help you develop a comprehensive understanding of the prescribed texts ⭕ Walking you through the exact method of paragraph construction and quote selection so that your essays are sophisticated ⭕ Reconstructing how you analyse quotes, so that they become highly unique and insightful ⭕ Going through fully analysed essay examples, that show you exactly what to do and what NOT to do, which you then get to keep. ⭕ Notes collated from my wider reading to help you understand context and authorial intent, so you can actually use them FLEXIBLY and EFFECTIVELY in exams ⭕ Teaching you a highly dynamic and groundbreaking approach to adapting your prepared essays to ANY exam question you may face _______________________________________________________________________ RATES 1-on-1 = $140/hr Small Group = $75/hr For small group classes, you can either join an existing class, or I can open a new class if you have your own group! HSC English group classes are text-specific, so if you have any friends or classmates studying the same texts, a class can be very easily arranged! Small Group Classes Currently Open Year 11 English Advanced Please don't hesitate to get in touch for any further information!
