After graduating from North Sydney Boys I initially did a year studying a Bachelors of Com/Law at USYD before transferring over to UNSW for medicine.

I still remember receiving my first report card in year 11 with a shocking rank of in english advanced, (there were like 150 people in my grade lol). After a lot of hard work and dedication and figuring out how the course works, I was able to climb the ranks in my school throughout year 11 and 12, eventually getting rank 2 in my english advanced trials with a mark of 97/100 and finally rank 1 externally in the HSC english advanced exam with a mark of 98/100.

Chris tutored me in English Advanced during 2022 for the last 3 terms of Year 12. I had received an 11/20 for my first assessment, having not listened in class during the common module. I had also neglected English during Year 11, not developing my writing nor learning the paragraph structure taught at my school, being the IQTVE method. I needed a tutor to teach me from scratch while keeping catching me up with the content being learned concurrently in class. My circumstances meant that many tutoring places couldn't meet my needs. Fortunately, being a graduate from my school, I was able to get in contact with Chris. Chris effectively built my understanding of the writing structure and caught me up on the common module. After this, he moved onto teaching the texts, allowing me to grasp the concepts and create my own essay arguments. Overall, Chris' efforts were monumental improving my HSC Eng. Adv. mark from a projected Band 3 to a Band 5, and I'm very grateful to have had him as my tutor during Year 12.

Chris is a dedicated and meticulous tutor who allowed me to gain an appreciation for the English subject and maximise my HSC results. Before he started tutoring me, I never really understood English as a subject, however, his methods of teaching and timely constructive feedback allowed my whole perspective to change. Highly recommend!
