About

Hello, my name is Finn. I am completing my Juris Doctor at the University of Melbourne after completing my Bachelor of Commerce in Finance and Accounting. I tutor VCE Math Methods, 7-10 Math, and VCE Accounting. The most important thing about me is that I was not an elite scorer; however, I know more about learning and self-improvement through my struggles, and I am better at it. From almost dropping out in year 10 to achieving a 93.05 ATAR, I have a lot of experience with self-reflection and learning how to learn. My knowledge and experience can help my students grow as learners and academically. I have over 500 hours of tutoring experience, and to ensure quality, I work with at most five clients at a time. I give my students extra time when they need it, such as additional sessions when a test is near or when a concept is tough. A+, A+, and A+ in VCE Mathematical Methods 2021 A, A, and A+ in VCE Accounting 2021 6.3/7 GPA - Bachelor of Commerce, University of Melbourne, 2024. - HD average in Accounting. - HD average in Statistics, Micro and Macro Economics. Investments Intern at a leading private credit fund, MCP, 2023. FIG - External Audit Intern at PwC, 2024. Through my challenges, I found that understanding the concept rather than written learning tended to result in higher growth and retention in my marks. I apply this same methodology through different explanation strategies, such as pure arithmetic, visuals, and in a real-life context. I aim to grow my student's scores and self-confidence, fostering enthusiasm and commitment to a goal. A healthy mindset is even more important than intellectual understanding. Self-confidence affects scores, as it causes confusion and second-guessing, especially for those already unconfident. Moreover, a healthy attitude can help reduce exam anxiety. I was (still am to a lesser degree) a massive sufferer of exam anxiety and would not be where I am without a toolbox to deal with it. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you'd like to talk more. Lessons can be between 30 and 60 minutes in-person or online.

Reviews

I'd like to thank Finn for all his support and help as a tutor. He's a really clear communicator which has helped me to understand more complex aspects of my subject. He's organised, reliable and shares his own experience's as a student which has given me heaps more confidence.

Finn has a dedicated and personal approach to Maths tutoring. He seems to understand that not everyone gets Math easily and helps to make it simpler to understand. Reliable and was available for support pre exams
