Hi, Iโm Aden, and I graduated from North Sydney Boys in 2020 with a scholarship to the University of Sydney. I now have three years of experience tutoring students across comprehensive and selective high schools, public and private. In that time I have been studying a Bachelor of Secondary Education, specialising in English and Modern History. In doing so, I have also gained real classroom experience as a high school teacher, and learned effective techniques to help you get the most out of your HSC.
During the HSC, I achieved top bands (Band 6 or E4) in English Advanced, English Extension I, English Extension II, Modern History, and History Extension.
Since 2020, I have given top-achievers from NSB, NSG, PLC, Hornsby Girls, and more the tools to succeed in the HSC, centring on an idea-based approach. How does this approach succeed?
1. I provide in-depth, comprehensible teaching of English and Historyโs big ideas, with real life examples to give you a full understanding. What is postmodernism? Freudian psychoanalysis? How do I use them in my essay? These questions will become easy to answer.
2. I then help students work these ideas into a unique essay, providing feedback at every step of the way. School teaches you the basics of essay writing, but only gives 20s to those who break the rules. Iโm interested in teaching you how to break them.
3. Before exams, I help students assemble these essays into an actionable plan to adapt to any essay question while preserving the quality of the writing. You will barely need to memorise, and you will still write a banger essay.
Importantly, you will enjoy the experience. Educational experts have shown time and time again that a love for learning creates the best outcomes. Part of our journey is that I will get to know your interests and passions, and weave them into our lessons to make becoming an English expert or young Historian as fun and easy as possible. If youโve hated or struggled with English throughout school, do not think that it is too late to change that.
In terms of brass tacks, I offer the following brackets for any English or History subject across all year groups:*
One-on-one tuition: $70
Pair tuition: $60/student
Group tuition (3+): $50/student
I went into teaching because I am interested in seeing young people succeed. If you are interested in a tutoring experience that gets you the best results, genuine knowledge, and is enjoyable the whole way through, then I think you could be the next success.
Contact me ASAP so we can begin planning your academic journey. I look forward to hearing from you.
