How My Lessons Work: Format: Lessons are conducted online, preferably through Discord, but I can also use other platforms like Skype based on your preference. Initial Setup: In our first sessions, I’ll work to understand the specific order of the syllabus and assessment tasks at your school. This helps us stay aligned with your curriculum and target areas in advance. Core Focus: We’ll start with the fundamentals – especially how to structure essays and short-answer responses effectively, highlighting exactly what markers look for. Essay Mastery: Essays are a major differentiator in HSC Economics, and I find that many students struggle with understanding how to structure them properly, even until the very end. My goal is to ensure you have a clear approach to writing standout essays early on. Ongoing Practice: After each lesson, I’ll assign specific tasks to reinforce what we’ve covered. Building strong fundamentals is as important as mastering essay skills, so our sessions will balance both. Student feedback: “Tutoring with Runzhi was the best thing I could have done for my Economics HSC. Feeling somewhat lost coming out of Year 11, he incisively assessed my individual needs and tailored classes around them. His unwavering dedication was inspiring and extremely helpful, as he provided me with bespoke, elite-level feedback on my responses throughout the week, bringing me a nuanced conceptual understanding of the syllabus which prepared me for every single possible question type assessable in exams. On top of this this, but his genuine passion for economics also comes with a wealth of theoretical and contemporary knowledge, which allowed me to master all the tricks presented by the MCQ and SAQ sections, and brought me the sophistication write exemplary 20/20 essays.” — A, 95 HSC Economics, SBHS
