About

Hello, my name is Scott, and I graduated from Barker College in 2023 with a 94.45 ATAR. I am a committed and enthusiastic online tutor who would love to work with you to unlock your full potential in school. Having experienced high school academic life, highs, and lows, I have understood and adjusted my study techniques and methods to ensure a comprehensive and detailed understanding of both content and the application of expressing and articulating ideas in exam format. I am currently studying for a double degree in a Bachelor of Laws and a Bachelor of Environmental Management at Macquarie University. I can offer online lessons via Microsoft Teams to students in English Advanced, English Extension 1, Legal Studies, and Studies of Religion. I can also offer face-to-face classes if needed, which can be discussed further. Please feel free to contact me via email if you have any other questions. Achievements: ATAR 94.45 English Advanced: (90/100) INTERNAL EXEMPLAR RESPONSES English Extension 1: (45/50) Mathematics Advanced: (87/100) Economics: (86/100) Legal Studies: (93/100) Studies of Religion II: (90/100) RANKED 1ST INTERNALLY IN 2022,2023 Outline of Services: For English the range of my support for my students can extend from Year 7 to Year 12, starting from early comprehension, spelling, and grammatical skills for younger students to essay writing techniques and strategies for later grades with notes, past essays, and specialized feedback for all areas. Common Module: 1984 by George Orwell Module A: Richard III and Looking for Richard by Al Pacino Module B: T.S. Eliot Poems: Preludes, Journey of the Magi, The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, Hollow Men, Rhapsody on a Windy Night Mod C: What Time is It Now where you are by Column McCann, Love and Honour and Pity and Pride and Compassion by Nam Le For English Extension, I specialize in the Reimagined Worlds elective under the texts: Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s Poems [Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Kubla Khan], Del Torro’s Pan’s Labyrinth, Franz Kafka’s The Penal Colony. For Legal Studies, my support can be provided from Year 11 to Year 12, with core units such as Human Rights and Crimes covered along with the Elective Units of Family and World Order. For this subject, my services can only be limited to the following core and elective units to ensure maximum understanding and content detail. For Studies of Religion 2, my support can be provided from Year 11 to Year 12, specializing in Christianity, Buddhism, and Islam. For this subject, these three major religions must align with the students to ensure that my support is truly optimized along with any lesson material that I can provide. Teaching Philosophy: Over the past few years, I have accumulated thousands of hours of testing, modifying, and harnessing my study techniques to obtain maximised results with a detailed and thorough understanding of the content that will reflect in examination results. I believe that there is nothing more efficient and reliable than hard work and that being placed in the right direction is the most important thing a student can be given from a tutor. I hope to give my students the right direction through my past experiences, notes, and exemplary responses to assist students the best I can. During each lesson, I strive to: - Integrate past paper questions and concepts wherever applicable, to familiarise my students with exam-style questions to maximise confidence. - Offer the opportunity for students to understand the content fully, which I believe is the key to succeeding in exams and is much more effective than memorizing essays and other pieces of content.
