☀️ 99.80 ATAR ☀️ Griffith MD ☀️2nd in Physics ☀️ 6th in Chemistry ☀️
Hi, I'm Jason Liang!
I graduated from North Sydney Boys High school in 2019 with an ATAR of 99.80. I am currently studying the Doctor of Medicine at Griffith University after recently completing a Bachelor of Medical Science degree at Griffith University with a maximum 7.0 GPA (Program Dux). I have been tutoring for over 4 years now, helping students achieve and go beyond their personal academic goals.

🎓ABOUT ME
----------------
I wasn't always a high-achieving student and well-rounded student. In year 11, I was only an average student in most of my subjects. However, after applying effective and sustainable studying techniques, I saw marked improvements in my academic performance.
📈I moved from 64th in Year 11 Physics to 2nd in Year 12 📈
My study techniques and mindset has not only yielded in excellent HSC (QCE equivalent) results but also carried into my academic achievements in university. As my student, I will not only tutor high-yield content, but also personally mentor you with important overarching skills applicable outside of QCE. These include as time management, discipline, and motivation to study.

📘Tutoring style (Evidence-based education techniques)
---------------------------------------------------------------
⭐ Focus on fundamental understanding
○ I will teach in accordance with Bloom's Taxonomy (education hierarchical model)
○ The new syllabus in Chemistry, Physics, and Maths have a detailed focus on being able to analyse, apply, and synthesis complex concepts
○ Being able to build a strong foundational understanding will help to tackle challenging question
⭐Hands on learning
○ I will not give you the answer straight away but effectively guide and probe students towards the solution
○ Will stay with you 1 on 1 until you understand
○ "Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime" - Lao Tzu
⭐ Developing exam technique
○ Have you lost one or two marks in Short-answer questions and don't know why?
○ Achieving high marks requires exam technique. In other words, knowing how to answer a question the way examiners want you to answer a question.
○ With extensive experience completing countless trial papers and talking with QCE markers, I will pass along tips and tricks to gain more marks
○ I will tutor with detailed working-out, and set exam-styled homework

🏠 Where I tutor
---------------------
I am currently located in Southport QLD and am willing to travel do in-person tutoring sessions within my area (i.e. Griffith University Library, Southport Library).
Alternatively, I offer tutoring for my listed subjects online, via Discord and OneNote. I have a Microsoft Surface Laptop/Tablet along Surface Pen to display hand-written working out on OneNote that will update in real-time on your student's device.
On OneNote, I devise lessons where we can both collaboratively write on the screen to develop sound working out. Here, I set homework for the student to also complete. This is a proven method which worked with previous students with no complaints.
Message me now for any inquires and consultation/ trial lesson!
