🌟 HSC All Rounder 🌟 🌟98 Math Adv (Ranked 2nd internally)🌟 🌟95 Chemistry🌟 🏃Rank 1 internally PDHPE🏃 🙈Rank 1 internally Accel Society & Culture🙈 Hey👋 I’m James and I’ve recently graduated Normanhurst Boys, looking to study Psychology Honours🧠 at USYD in the Dalyell scholars stream. I am currently offering highschool tutoring for: 📐 PRELIM / HSC Maths Advanced📐 🧪HSC Chemistry🧪 These lessons will be conducted over Skype with an interactive whiteboard to prevent the unnecessary hassle of having to travel. 🗺️My story🗺️ I was an underdog for most of my schooling life. From failing all my science exams in junior highschool to being unable to grasp my mind around so many different abstract maths concepts, I was ready to give up😭. Luckily for me though, in Year 11, I was fortunate enough to have a teacher who inspired me to have a renewed vigour to my studies, something that I aspire to be for you😁. And with my enthusiasm skyrocketing, I was ready to tackle anything. BUT Despite my increased motivation, I was still suffering academically, with my ranks in Chemistry being 65 and Maths being 80. By the end of the Year 11 course I had a predicted ATAR of 90☹️. However, heading into Year 12, I decided that I was going to have an ✨academic comeback✨and I realised that I had been approaching my studies wrong the whole time. Instead, I began to shift my approach to focus on conceptual understanding and other techniques to help me learn. As a result I saw a drastic improvement in my marks, with my Maths Advanced rank climbing to 2nd - something I would have thought impossible. As a result of my experience, I hope to impart with you the wisdom that I have learnt through my academic journey to not only succeed in the HSC exams but also further in life. I believe that each student has potential, and whether it has already been harnessed or if it is still hidden, I hope to be that person to assist YOU in channelling that potential into unbelievable results👀. 🧑‍🏫Tutoring Approach🧑‍🏫 💡Personalised lessons tailored to students’ needs, with the option to go ahead of what is being covered in classes, revise concepts or prepare for exams. 💡Homework provided with option for more difficult questions. 💡Tracking student progress to personalise homework to address concepts which the student is struggling in. 💡Topic tests provided prior to exams. 💡Provide students with skills to not only succeed during the HSC but more importantly post HSC. 💡Assist students develop a greater appreciation and conceptual understanding of topics. 💡 24/7 support on question assistance over text or email. 🟩Prices🟩 Private 1-1 : $45 / hr Small group (2-4 people) : $30 / hr (negotiable) Note: The first lesson is a free trial with no commitment.
