About
99.95 ATAR | IB 45
Hi, my name is Josh Perera! I recently graduated from Trinity Grammar School where I completed the International Baccalaureate Diploma. I received a perfect IB score of 45/45 (99.95 ATAR), earning me the privileged position of 'Equal First in the World.' I am now studying a Bachelor of Laws (Honours) and Commerce at Sydney Uni, and have substantial corporate experience.
Having begun tutoring immediately after my final exams, I have 2500+ hours of one-on-one tutoring experience since then and my students have received excellent results; including PERFECT 45/45 IB scores, full marks in IAs and ALL students receiving Grade 7s in the components they received tuition for. As a recent IB graduate, I can offer unique guidance and support for my students. I have a deep understanding of the NEW SYLLABUS for all subjects and can provide the tricks and tips that will ensure your improved results.

Having balanced many activities with the IB, I have developed valuable organisational and time management skills and study techniques, that can help you be more efficient. I can also help improve your assignments and exam preparation. I have experience working with high school students of all ages and abilities, and teach in a relatable, understandable and friendly manner that is adaptable to the individual needs of the student. Currently, I also work as a Debating Adjudicator for the ISDA, Archdale and GPS Debating Competitions.
I am also happy to sell my subject notes, internal assessments (IAs), past paper responses and provide marking/feedback to students who don't have lessons with me. Please contact me for this!
I can tutor in-person and online, on any platform of your choice. I also offer tutoring for Year 7-10 subjects and have substantial experience working with younger students. Students are also able to receive complimentary resources and out-of-lesson support through messaging and emails whenever they need.
I also provide support with University Admissions such as the Law Admissions Test (LAT) which I offer tutoring for, and Early Entry, having received early entry offers to study Law at UTS and ANU, with a selection rank of 99.95
I am able to provide tuition for HSC subjects that have overlap with my IB subjects, including: English (Standard/Advanced/Extension), Mathematics (Standard/Advanced/Extension), Business Studies, Economics, PDHPE and French (Beginners/Continuers/Extension).

Reviews
We are so lucky to have found Josh as a tutor for my Yr 12 IB son. Josh was very knowledgeable in his subjects and offered helpful exam techniques and resources. Josh was very committed to his students, even making time on his holidays to review assignments. Josh was at all times very professional and would highly recommend him to future students. Thanks so much Josh!

Josh is a great Tutor, highly recommended!! I have had 5 lessons with him and have found them very helpful as they cover a range of subjects: study habits, useful tools for increasing productivity, essay/GLA writing, and more.
Josh has great experience and insight in increasing all-round success. But especially within the IB context, he has proven to have some great tips and resources that have increased my productivity and allowed me to get a head start on the course content.
Would definitely recommend it to anybody who is going into the latter years of highschool/preparing for their final exams.
Brilliant and Fun Tutor! 5 Stars

Josh was a fabulous tutor for my son during year 12 for HL economics and English. His structured lessons can assist a student at any level improve their band level. He not only assisted in building knowledge but on how to present it in a concise and fluent manner. I would highly recommend Josh.
