About

99.40 ATAR | HSC All-Rounder | English & Social Sciences Specialist Hi! I’m Luka. I graduated from Fort Street High School in 2025, ranking 1st in my cohort for Earth & Environmental Science, Geography and Legal Studies, 4th in English Extension 1, and 24th in English Advanced. I achieved an ATAR of 99.40 and was recognised as an HSC All-Rounder, with the following results: Earth & Environmental Science: 96/100 (State Rank: 6th in NSW) Geography: 97/100 Legal Studies: 97/100 English Advanced: 91/100 English Extension 1: 48/50 Mathematics Advanced: 94/100 From 2026, I intend to pursue a Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy & Economics at the University of Sydney. During my time in high school, I was fortunate to have participated in 2 student exchanges in to Germany & Japan, which helped me deepen my appreciation for cultural learning and global perspectives. I'm equally grateful for the opportunities I had to extend myself, particularly through Model United Nations and the Duke of Edinburgh Program. Outside of academics, I love hiking, traveling and exploring new places in my free time. Having received tutoring myself in Year 12, I understand how valuable personalised support and feedback can be for helping already talented students reach their full potential. As such, my approach is collaborative, adaptable and student-centered, with my specific lesson structure tailored to each students’ style, goals and confidence. I offer private, one-on-one tutoring for: - English Advanced & Extension 1 (Years 11-12) - Geography (Years 7-12) - Legal Studies (11-12) - Earth & Environmental Science (Years 7-12) - Mathematics (Years 7-10) My lessons typically include: - Collaborative essay planning & editing - Guided practice of short-answer & extended response questions to develop reading-and-responding and analytical skills - Targeted feedback on students’ work, which I mark in my own time each week, to refine technique and structure - Custom practice materials and exams I write to address each students’ weaker areas Additionally, I provide students with a wealth of resources for English, Geography and Legal Studies - including detailed case studies, statistics and text analysis for ALL syllabus points - which I gladly share with students and encourage them to add to further. Lessons are generally one-hour long, however this is flexible. I offer both in-person and online tutoring sessions, depending on student preference.
