About

⭐ 𝐀𝐓𝐀𝐑: πŸ—πŸ—.πŸ’πŸ“ HSC all rounder ⭐ Maths Ext 1: 96 | ⭐ Maths Ext 2: 93 | ⭐ Physics: 93 | ⭐ English Adv: 94 | ⭐ Economics: 93 | ⭐ Chemistry: 90 ⭐ Internal rankings: β€’ 2nd – Physics β€’ 3rd – Economics β€’ 7th – Maths Extension 1 β€’ 9th – Chemistry β€’ 10th – Maths Extension 2 β€’ 17th – English Advanced ⭐ Experience β€’ Helped students go from a band 4 to a band 6 within one term of tutoring as well as achieve top 3 ranks across English, physics and economics β€’ Tutor at Horizon Learning, delivering both private and small-group classes β€’ Specialised in Mathematics, Science, and English across multiple year levels β€’ Adapted lessons to suit different learning styles, abilities, and confidence levels β€’ Focused on building strong foundations while pushing high-performing students further β€’ Taught students with a variety of skill levels ⭐ High-performance tutoring built on growth, precision, and care I’m not here to waste your time. I tutor students who want more than surface-level improvement - students who want to unlock their potential, build a strong study mindset, and learn how to improve consistently, not just cram before exams. I believe the biggest difference between students isn’t talent - it’s how they think about learning. My role isn’t just to teach content; it’s to help you understand how to study, how to respond to setbacks, and how to perform when it matters. I also know what students actually need from a tutor: someone who cares, adapts to you, and is there when questions come up - not just during the lesson. You’ll have 24/7 support, because growth doesn’t happen on a timetable. Large tutoring places don't offer personalised learning. Trust me, I know. As someone who went to large tutoring centres and was forgotten for not being "the best" I didn't receive the care and help I needed. As your tutor, I am here to change that so you have the maximum ability to grow. ⭐ What you receive when you tutor with me: β€’ Full access to all my finalised English & Economics essays (15+ scaffolds), exemplars, and documents β€’ Specialising in English for the following texts: Merchant of Venice and 1984 (common mod), Mrs Dalloway and the Hours (Mod A), T.S.Eliot (Mod B), all texts for Mod C β€’ 100+ pages of curated notes for English and Economics β€’ 1000+ collated hard questions for Maths Extension 1 & 2, including common traps and frequent student mistakes β€’ Physics resources covering question types, solving frameworks, strategies, and a constantly updated bank of difficult questions ⭐ Everything is designed to save you time, sharpen your thinking, and accelerate improvement.
