I'm Gavin Gao, and I'm a 2023 graduate from North Sydney Boys, currently ranked first in NSW. With 2+ years of experience tutoring, I'm offering online and in-person lessons primarily for Mathematics Advanced, Extension 1 and 2. I am also able to teach Physics, Chemistry and English for both the HSC and Preliminary courses. Although I’m not currently offering tutoring for subjects from Year 7 to 10, feel free to contact me if you have any questions! As your tutor I'll help you develop efficient study techniques, organisation skills, better time management, motivation and discipline through highly personalised lessons. This is in addition to a thorough understanding of the syllabus and the methodology behind structuring responses I will provide to my students. My lessons will revolve around identifying the student's weaknesses and gaps in knowledge or exam technique, providing a fix to these issues and constantly strengthening them through practice questions. I'm also happy to provide assistance for extracurriculars, career advice, and exams such as the UCAT. 🎓 𝗔𝗰𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀 🏅 ‎‎‎‏ATAR: 𝟵𝟵.𝟵𝟱 🏅 Mathematics Ext 1: 𝟭𝟬𝟬 – 𝟯𝗿𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗡𝗦𝗪 • Mathematics Ext 2: 𝟵𝟳 • English Advanced: 𝟵𝟱‏‏‎ • Chemistry: 𝟵𝟲 • Physics: 𝟵𝟲 • Information Processes & Technology (2021): 𝟵𝟲 🩺 USYD Medicine BSci/MD Student 🩺 UCAT ANZ 2023 (University Clinical Aptitude Test): 3210 (97th Percentile) 💵 Offered the USYD Chancellor's Scholarship ($10,000 p.a. for 3 years) 💵 Offered the UNSW Scientia Scholarship ($10,000 p.a. for 4 years) 📚 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗶𝘃𝗲 • Access to state-rank notes, exemplars and responses • High quality worksheets, mock exams and past papers • Extensive guidance with school assignments, exams and depth studies • Personalised lessons tailored for your strengths and weaknesses • Individual marking and personalised feedback • Additional online question help outside of lesson hours 💸 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 • Small Group (2-5 students): $60/hr (negotiable) • 1 on 1: $90/hr • Online & in-person lessons offered (location-based) • Free trial lesson to familiarise myself with the student's approach to learning
