About

⭐️ IB 45.75 ⭐️ 99.95 ATAR ⭐️ 3200 UCAT ⭐️ Monash Medicine ⭐️ ⭐️ IB Chemistry and Biology tutor ⭐️ ⭐️ About me ⭐️ Hi! My name is Sarah and I graduated in 2022 with a perfect IB score of 45.75, equivalent to a 99.95 ATAR. I am currently studying the Bachelor of Medical Science/Doctor of Medicine at Monash University. While completing Year 12, I studied while balancing various activities extracurriculars such as School Captaincy, Mock Trial and debating – so I know exactly how stressful the last years of high school can be! I also went to school in a regional area and had less access to study resources – I instead compiled many tips and tricks throughout Year 11 and 12 which I would love to share with my students. ⭐️ What I offer ⭐️ This year, I am offering IB chemistry (HL/SL) and biology (HL/SL) tutoring, which will include: - One-on-one online tutoring over Zoom - Flexible teaching style suited to each student - Lesson notes and homework provided after each session - Access to my personal HL Chemistry Anki deck - Access to my handwritten summary sheets for every topic - Exam preparation with a focus on solving past paper questions (starting from the first session!) - Extensive IA support including help with brainstorming, detailed guide to IA writing, draft marking and access to marked IB samples - Access to a personal Google Drive folder with extra resources including all IB past papers, lecture notes, extra questionbanks and IA support material - Study tips and mentoring - Email/phone support available 7 days a week ⭐️ Additional IA marking ⭐️ I am also offering IA marking and feedback for the following subjects: English Lang Lit, Maths AA, Chemistry, Biology, and Global Politics. Here are the marks I received for my IAs in these subjects: - English Lang Lit IO - 36/40 - Chemistry IA - 23/24 - Biology IA - 22/24 - Maths AA IA - 20/20 - Global Politics Engagement Activity - 18/20, Global Politics HL Extension - 10/10 I charge $70 per IA. Written feedback will be returned within 24-48 hours in the form of an extensively annotated word document, accompanied by a Zoom call to discuss any questions.

Reviews

Sarah was a lovely, patient, dedicated and very helpful IB HL Chemistry tutor! She had super helpful notes, taught in an engaging, adaptive and tailored manner and provided me with endless practice questions. Her advice and bank of resources helped me to improve my Chemistry grades, gain confidence and a passion for Chemistry and achieve a 7 across all my exams. Highly recommend 😇😇.
