About

// 99.80 ATAR // PHYSICS, MATHS, GERMAN TUTORING // G'day! My name is Alex and I graduated from Trinity Grammar School in 2021 with a 99.80 ATAR. I am currently studying a double major of Mechanical Engineering and European Languages at Monash University on a full scholarship (Engineering Excellence scholarship, one of only 10 offered). My strengths are Maths, Physics, Languages (especially German) - and my friendly and approachable manner! I have often been told I am a natural teacher who explains complex concepts in understandable terms. In my two years as a tutor, I have helped dozens of students achieve their academic aspirations, and have acquired hundreds of hours of tutoring experience. I have always been determined to do my best academically and in all aspects of my life. I would love to share my skills and tips to help you achieve the best results possible! Together we can focus on building a sound understanding of fundamental concepts and consolidating your knowledge, whether for homework tasks, SACs, or exam preparation. I am available for both in-person and online tutoring for students from Year 7 through to VCE. I'd be happy to come to your home or a public library around Kew, Balwyn, and Box Hill areas. My study scores were: English – 50 Physics – 49 (scaled 49) German – 43 (scaled 49) Mathematical Methods – 44 (scaled 48) Chemistry – 41 (scaled 44) Ancient History – 40

Reviews

Alex was an amazing tutor over the two years that he tutored me. He tutored me for mathematical methods and is extremely brilliant and got me through the course. Alex was always responding to questions asked outside of tutoring sessions and was always willing to help, and I could not recommend him enough. Alex was great to work with, easy and flexible, and always reliable. 5 stars, could not have done the course without him.

Received tutoring from Alex in 2022, studying VCE physics and maths methods in year 12. Was very fortunate to have Alex as a tutor - generous with his time, explained things clearly and in a way that allowed me to apply it in exam and SAC scenarios. Focusing on making sure my understanding was sound, we never moved passed a practice question without reviewing and comparing our answer which I found very useful. Overall, was very happy and achieved much better scores in these subjects than expected. Thanks Alex!

Character references

Alex possesses not only a very broad vocabulary but also an extremely thorough knowledge of the grammar of the German language. His skills in listening, reading, writing and speaking are excellent. Alex is able to both express himself with accuracy and to convey to others with clarity rules behind lexical and grammatical choices in German. His patience, positivity, good humour and thoroughness will make him an outstanding tutor.

I taught Alex in his final year at Trinity Grammar for Mathematical Methods. During this period Alex proved to be an excellent student of mathematics. He demonstrated outstanding mathematical skills throughout the year and achieved results that reflected a mastery of the concepts taught. Alex was extremely hard working and organised, meeting all deadlines to the highest standard. He was able to solve complex mathematical problems involving areas such as calculus. His written skills reflected a sound understanding with the correct use of symbols and methodology. I strongly recommend Alex as an outstanding student of mathematics.
