Reviews
I completed my HSC in 2022 and achieved a band 6 in standard mathematics. The assistance that I received from my tutor, Dr Peter Day made this result possible. I struggled during year 11 (due to the lockdowns and the fact that our Year 12 class maths teacher became sick and we had a replacement who wasn’t very helpful). Peter gave me the confidence and patiently explained the concepts that I struggled with. I highly recommend Peter as a tutor who is both experienced and knowledgeable in teaching mathematics. I gained entry into uni. and enrolled in a teaching degree. Peter inspired me to take up teaching as a career. Many thanks for your assistance and patience with me.
