99.35 ATAR || 1ST IN CHEMISTRY & ENGLISH || PROVEN SUCCESS & B6 RESULTS ‼️1 SPOT REMAINING FOR 2026 ‼️ 🚨🚨 ONLINE TUTORING ONLY 🚨🚨 Hi! My name is Dinara Kalupahana and I'm a 2023 Glenwood High School Graduate, where I’m currently studying a Bachelor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (Honors) under the Dalyell Stream at USYD. I've consistently ranked in the top 3 in my cohort during year 12, and graduating with both an ATAR of 99.35 and the ADF Future Innovators Award has provided me with the know-how to boost HSC internal ranks and marks to allow students to achieve their ATAR goals! Below are a few of my credentials regarding tutoring for senior high school (PRELIM/HSC): ➡️2 years (400 + hours) of prior tutoring experience ➡️PROVEN RESULTS: Former HSC and Prelim students (2024/2025) have seen a 20%+ increase in marks for subjects tutored and a growth in their internal ranks ➡️1st rank internally and externally for HSC Chemistry and English Advanced 🌟I specialise in tutoring HSC Chemistry and English Advanced/Standard, and am committed to providing personalised, in depth lessons to maximise students’ understanding and potential in the subjects I tutor them in, as well as providing tips/tricks and detailed material for any other common subjects we have. 🌟This includes providing video explanations for any tricky concepts out of lesson hours for Chemistry, where I encourage my students to send me any practice questions/tasks they have completed for further feedback/marking at no extra cost! 🌟Regarding English, I will unearth the tips and tricks that helped me transform my mediocre Prelim mark (78/100) to 1st in English Advanced internally and externally in HSC (95/100 HSC Mark). I have a specific focus on the reading comprehension section of Paper 1, where I can identify a current lack of focus in schools in developing students’ analytical skills in unseen texts. But most of all, I am deeply passionate about passing on the knowledge and expertise I have developed over my senior years to budding young high achievers, and I am committed to working with students of any current academic level provided they have the determination and will to succeed! I teach by example, focusing on practice questions immediately after learning concepts to ensure students understand the material, and provide additional support and clarification if gaps in their knowledge are registered. Other benefits include: *1-1 and out of lesson support whenever required* *The resources I used that were the foundation of my HSC success* *Personalised homework to target areas of weakness and solidify strengths* *Ongoing internal and external assessment support* ❗️IMPORTANT INFORMATION❗️ 📌PRICING English: One on one: $60/hr Chemistry: One on one: $50/hr 2 students: $45/hr each 3+ students: $40/hr each 📌TYPICAL LESSON LENGTH 1 hour a week for English Standard/Advanced 2 hours a week for Chemistry

I went to Dinara for HSC English Advanced Tutoring, and I could not have made a better decision during my time as an HSC student. Dinara shows a level of dedication and care to her students that is so rare to find nowadays. From the super helpful weekly sessions targeted to my abilities, to all the many essays and papers I sent to her to mark which she did in her own time, I do not know where I'd be without her tutoring. I went from starting my HSC year with a borderline Band 5 for English to scoring many 20/20s in my internals and ultimately ending up with a 94 in the HSC for English Advanced. This a testament to Dinara's incredible proficiency as a tutor and I would recommend her to anyone any day. I am so grateful for everything Dinara, thank you so very much!

Dinara is an incredibly dedicated and supportive tutor. I’ve been taking chemistry lessons with her for a while now, and her tutoring has greatly improved my confidence and understanding of the subject. Her lessons focus on understanding content, identifying knowledge gaps, and doing deliberate practice to maximise marks in exams. Her enthusiasm and support make every lesson engaging and enjoyable. Her deep understanding of chemistry and ability to break down complex topics into manageable pieces make her a highly effective tutor. Whether it’s helping students fill knowledge gaps, tackling HSC-related questions, or managing time management, Dinara consistently goes above and beyond to ensure her students succeed.

Personally I’ve had experience with a few tutors before, and I can say that none have been as organised as Dinara. She is flexible and easy to communicate with, making lesson planning a breeze. She also comes to every session with extensive resources not only for learning but for revision as well. She has been incredibly helpful throughout my HSC chemistry course and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a chem tutor!
