About

99.75 ATAR | 98 in 2U | 95 in 3U | 93 in 4U | 95 Physics | 96 English Adv | 92 Chemistry | Hi, my name is Brendan De Silva, and I recently graduated from St Aloysius' College (Milsons Point) where I completed the HSC, and received an ATAR of 99.75. My strong academic achievements, coupled with my performance in the HSC, including earning a place on the All Rounder Achievers List (for receiving a Band 6/E4 in all five of my HSC subjects) demonstrates my suitability to guiding you through your high school journey. I have significant tutoring experience, having begun tutoring immediately after the conclusion of my final exams. As a 2021 HSC graduate I can offer unique guidance and support for my students. Additionally, I currently work as a Connect Presenter for Elevate Education, delivering seminars to Year 12 cohorts in schools across Sydney on how to best approach and succeed in the HSC. My HSC marks were: - Mathematics Extension 1: 95 - Mathematics Extension 2: 93 - Physics: 95 - Chemistry: 92 - English Advanced: 96 (I also received an examination mark of 98, the highest in my school cohort) Leading up to the HSC, my final internal ranks were: - Mathematics Extension 1: 4th out of 73 - Mathematics Extension 2: 6th out of 27 - Physics: 4th out of 54 - Chemistry: 5th out of 40 - English Advanced: 4th out of 142 In 2020, I was a part of my school's accelerant program and sat the 2-Unit Mathematics Advanced HSC exam whilst in Year 11, receiving an HSC mark of 98. I can tutor in-person (I live in Potts Point and am happy to travel to you or meet at libraries) and online, on any platform of your choice. My rate for in-person students is different to online so as to cover travel costs, dependant on the student's location. I also offer tutoring for Year 7-10 subjects (please contact me for my rates for Year 7-10). I also have a valid Working With Children Check Number (available on request).
