About

FULL MARK HSC ENGLISH EXTENSION | ALL-ROUNDER ACHIEVER | 1st INTERNAL ENG EXT 1 | 7th INTERNAL ENG ADV | ENCORE NOMINATION | 96.75 ATAR | Hey! I'm Cathy and I studied at PLC Sydney, and am currently undertaking a Bachelor of Commerce/Advanced at the University of Sydney, majoring in Business Law and Finance. As I am part of the first cohort to complete the new HSC syllabus, I am confident that I will be able to guide you through the new challenges that it brings, and answer any syllabus questions you may have. I will offer you comprehensive advice, strategies and resources that will target your own unique style of learning, boosting your confidence and ensuring successful academic achievements. My lessons will be dedicated to your development of in-depth understanding of the syllabus content, to both build adaptability skills and your own confidence in responding to unseen and challenging questions. I believe that this is particularly essential in English, and as I have ranked 7th for English Adv and 1st in English Ext internally, I will provide extensive feedback for any written work, marking responses, and identifying areas to improve, for overall success. While Biology may seem extremely content heavy, it is also one of the most rewarding and enjoyable subjects! I believe that completely understanding each syllabus dot point is most beneficial, hence I will personalise our lessons to target areas for you to improve, with relevant worksheets, and for year 12 students, my own summaries and case studies for every single HSC syllabus dot point. This will ensure that you will have a complete understanding of each concept, so that you will not be overwhelmed later on by knowledge that you did not completely grasp earlier. I can provide a collation of case studies that will be tested in HSC, which you can both refer to and build your own knowledge from. I am offering tutoring (in person/online via Skype, Zoom, Facetime, Google Hangout) for: All age groups: English, Mathematics Year 11-12: English Advanced, English Extension, Mathematics Advanced, Biology HSC English Adv: The Crucible, The Tempest, Hagseed, T.S Eliot HSC English Ext: North and South, Seamus Heaney, Waiting for Godot I am able to assist you in tackling these daunting subjects with academic resources aimed to boost your confidence and learning techniques in a short time. Essay plans and essays, past papers, summaries, and exemplar example responses, will be provided. You can also reach out to me regarding any issues that you encounter in your studies outside of classes via text, phone call or email.
