ATAR 99.95 | IB 45/45 | Melbourne Uni Chancellor's Scholar Hi, I'm Tim and I'm a medical student at the University of Melbourne with a passion for education! With over 6 years experience in tutoring and 5 years experience in syllabus development and educational resource creation, I'm confident that I can help you achieve your goals through High School. I studied the IB Diploma program with 7s in HL Biology, HL Chemistry, HL Maths AA, SL English Lang & Lit, SL Spanish B and SL Economics. I also received an A in my Biology Extended Essay giving me a 45 and an ATAR of 99.95. This allowed me to study at Melbourne University with a guaranteed pathway into the Doctor of Medicine through the Chancellor's Scholarship program. In addition, I sat the UCAT and scored in the 95th percentile, completed SACE Stage 1 Mathematical Methods and Stage 2 Biology for SACE as a year 10 student. I received offers to study medicine from universities around Australia including UNSW, UQ, USYD, UTAS and Flinders University, as well as offers to study dentistry at Adelaide University and USYD. My Tutoring Method is as follows: 1. Learning Content (using personalised notes that incorporate annotated diagrams) 2. Remembering Content (via effective Active Recall techniques) 3. Applying Content (by practising with exam-style questions) 4. Exam Technique (learning strategies to maximise efficiency and accuracy when answering questions under time pressure) I also provide guidance on how to pick assignment topics, drafting (rates below) and Mock Exams for subjects with an oral component. I am very familiar with the syllabus in both IB and SACE, and have designed a syllabus and created educational resources for the new IB Biology and Chemistry courses for very well-regarded tutoring companies. This allows me to quickly identify common weaknesses in students and predict examination patterns. Every student is different, however, so lessons are personalised to meet learning needs and achieve their individual goals.
