About

99.25 ATAR | 2023 NSW State Rank | All Rounder | Dux of St Patrick's College, Strathfield | USYD Law | Hi there ! My name is James and I recently graduated as the Dux of St Patrick's College Strathfield in 2023. I am currently studying a double degree in Arts/Law at the University of Sydney. At school I achieved 1st place in all of my subjects, and was also placed on the Top Achievers List for 13th in the State in Modern History and the Meritorious All Rounders List for achieving a Band 6 in all of my subjects. My HSC marks were as follows: 97/100 in Modern History (13th in the state) 48/50 in Studies of Religion 1 95/100 in Economics 47/100 in English Extension 1 94/100 in Personal Development, Health and Physical Education 92/100 in English Advanced My main objective as a tutor is to ensure all of my students thrive academically and exceed results beyond their goals and expectations. To help you do that I will provide you access to all of my resources, including model essays and essay plans, past papers and extensive subject-specific notes. I also provide personalised annotated feedback both within and outside lessons, and am more than happy to assist you with any assessments, homework tasks or preparation for upcoming exams. I am willing to provide lessons both in person or online depending on the preferences of each student. I offer these lessons as both regular sessions, or emergency one-off classes if you are struggling with preparation for a task to help get you back on track. If you have any further queries, please feel free to reach out to me, and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
