Iโ€™m Leon of which a 2024 Brisbane State High Graduate. Iโ€™m thrilled to share how I turned around a predicted ATAR of 77 to achieving an unadjusted 96.4 ATAR. Hence, Iโ€™m offering tutoring to all students; primary schoolers, junior and senior high schoolers to reach their full academic potential for $65 per hour! Whether your child is failing or struggling to learn in any year level, Iโ€™m here to help them succeed! However, as I moved over to Sydney pursuing a degree in Mechatronics (Robotics) Engineering at UNSW, my tutoring service will only be through online. ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—Ÿ๐—ฒ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ฝ ๐—บ๐˜† ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ถ๐—น๐—ฑ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต? * Primary School students (Prep to Year 6): English, Mathematics, Science, NAPLAN, ICAS, AMC and Selective School entries (eg. but not limited to Queensland Academy/Brisbane State High/Mansfield State High) * Junior High School Students (Year 7 to Year 9): Mathematics, Science, Digital Solutions (IT) and Engineering * Senior High School Students (Year 10 to Year 12): Methods, Chemistry, Physics, Digital Solutions (IT) and Engineering ๐—ช๐—ต๐˜† ๐—Ÿ๐—ฒ๐—ผ๐—ป? Being a student who struggles in both grasping concepts and understanding simple topics, I know what itโ€™s like to struggle and feel like you're falling behind. In Year 11, my predicted ATAR was 77, but through discovering countless effective study strategies, I TRANSFORMED MY RESULTS. Iโ€™ve learned how to break down complex topics into manageable steps, and now Iโ€™m dedicated to helping your child do the same! Iโ€™ve never been the โ€œperfect student,โ€ but with tailored personalized support, Iโ€™ll help your child gain confidence and ensure they master any academic problem they face. Moreover, Iโ€™m currently working closely with students who are diagnosed with Dyscalculia and ADHD, as well as homeschooled students, which has been a tough but deeply rewarding part of my tutoring journey. These learners face challenges such as grasping basic concepts, reasoning, maintaining focus, or adapting to self-directed learning. Iโ€™ve developed tailored strategies to help them overcome these obstacles. My approach is rooted in patience, empathy, and adaptability, ensuring that every student feels supported and confident in their learning. With this experience, Iโ€™m well-equipped to provide the understanding and guidance your child needs to thrive. Letโ€™s turn your childโ€™s academic journey from average to amazing! If youโ€™re ready to get started or want more information. Letโ€™s work together to make 2025 their best year yet! Happy Holidays, and I look forward to helping your child succeed! โ€” Leon Yen

Reviews

Before we found Leon, our homeschooled child was really struggling with learning. They have always had trouble focusing, especially with structured subjects like maths, and had fallen behind quite a bit. Lessons often ended in frustration, and over time they started to feel like they just were not capable of learning. We had tried other tutors, but none of them were able to connect with our child or adjust their approach to suit how our child learns best. Leon has completely changed things for the better. He is calm, patient, and knows how to explain things in a way that keeps our child engaged without pressure. Since working with him, they have started sitting through full sessions, understanding more, and even enjoying the process. Maths no longer feels like a fight. Their confidence has grown so much, and it has been amazing to see them feel proud of themselves and their progress. Leon has made a real difference in both their learning and self-belief.

Leon has honestly been the best thing to happen to our sonโ€™s learning journey. Our son is in Year 7 and has dyscalculia, which has made maths incredibly difficult for him for as long as we can remember. He has always struggled to keep up in class, fallen behind, and no matter how much effort he put in, he was constantly getting Ds. We have tried other tutors before but none of them really understood how to teach in a way that worked for him. It was frustrating for all of us and our son had started to believe he just was not good at maths. Since working with Leon, everything has changed. He explains things in a way that finally clicks for our son and he has never made him feel behind or incapable. Our son now enjoys maths lessons and feels proud to be passing for the first time. His confidence has improved so much and we truly could not be more thankful. Leon understands how to support students with learning challenges and he has made a real difference in our son's life.

Weโ€™re honestly so thankful for Leon. Heโ€™s been amazing with our Year 11 daughter and really helped her turn things around in physics. She went from getting a C to an A in just one term. She was actually shocked (in the best way) when she saw her results. Leon explains things in a way that just makes sense, and heโ€™s super patient and kind. Our daughter always says how easy it is to ask questions with him, and she actually looks forward to her sessions now, which is saying something for physics. Heโ€™s made a massive difference. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great tutor who genuinely cares.

Leon has been an absolute asset to the team at our cafe. He shows up on time, works hard, and always brings a great attitude to every shift. Whether he is taking orders, handling the coffee machine, or helping clean up during busy periods, he does it all with care and attention to detail. Customers often compliment his friendly service and calm energy, even during the morning rush. What really stands out about Leon is how reliable and adaptable he is. He picks things up quickly, stays organised under pressure, and never needs to be asked twice. He takes pride in doing a good job and is always happy to help others when needed. It is rare to find someone so consistent and positive in a fast-paced environment like this. I am really glad to have him as part of the team.
