About

IB 44 | ATAR 99.75 | Marking + feedback services | Hi! I'm Josie. I'm currently studying a Bachelor of Arts and Advanced Studies at the University of Sydney, majoring in English and Media Communications. In high school, I took the International Baccalaureate program and received 44 points overall, equivalent to a 99.75 ATAR. I am incredibly passionate about helping students achieve their full potential and will always do my best to help you reach your academic goals. WHAT I OFFER Currently I am offering marking and feedback services for IB English, History and Economics. Within the IB, grades for IAs and EEs are crucial for determining your final score, so it’s important you do these to the best of your abilities. Whether it’s a practise essay, an IA, EE or other piece of written work, I have accumulated years of experience in marking and providing feedback for students in these subjects. I have tutored these subjects for 4 years, and during this time I helped many students improve their written works — one student improved her English IA from a level 5 to level 7 mark. I will not only provide edits for grammar and clarity, but also feedback on the structure, content and effectiveness of the piece. Using my own personal experience from undertaking the curriculum, my skills developed during university, and also experience from helping other students improve their work, I am confident that I can help you improve your grade. HOW IT WORKS After reaching out to me, I will give you a quote on how much it will cost to provide feedback on your work. This ranges depending on the length, scope and degree of feedback required for the piece. I will then provide specific annotated feedback, as well as more general written feedback on how the work should be improved, all within 3 working days. If necessary, a half hour Zoom call can be arranged for verbal consultation too. MY RATES $50-$120 per consultation My rates vary depending on what piece of work is submitted to me and the level of feedback it requires. I will provide you with a quote before commencing with the review. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I also speak Cantonese and Mandarin, which may be helpful for some students. Feel free to reach out to me with any enquiries! Whether you're after a one-off lesson, a trial lesson, or want to arrange scheduled sessions, I would love to hear from you!
