About

IB Score: 42.50 | ATAR: 98.55 | USYD Commerce Dalyell Scholar | IB Tutor Hi! My name is Michael Kousparis, and I just completed the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme at Newington College in November 2025. I have accepted the offer to study Commerce at USYD as a Dalyell scholar starting in 2026. IB Tutoring: As your tutor, I will be able to use my experience to guide you along your IB journey. Having sat the November 2025 exam session, I am well updated with the new syllabuses. My teaching will be tailored to your needs, whether it be exam questions, exam technique advice, providing past paper questions, or IA feedback. In addition to my services, you will have access to my extensive range subject notes and question banks. Listed below are the subjects I offer for tutoring and the marks I received in each. I specialise in HL Economics and SL Physics, as I received the highest mark at Newington for both these two courses. - Economics HL: Grade 7 (85/100) - Physics SL: Grade 7 (82/100) - Geography SL: Grade 7 (80/100) - French B SL: Grade 6 (78/100) - Mathematics Analysis and Approaches HL: Grade 6 (76/100) - English Literature HL: Grade 6 (70/100) - Extended Essay in Economics: Grade A (28/34) - Theory of Knowledge: Grade B (20/30) There is no IB tutor better than the one who has just completed it. This is because I have experienced the demands of the course whilst balancing outside of school commitments, ultimately enabling me to provide you with both subject feedback and informed advice on prioritising certain IAs. HSC Tutoring: Don't hesitate to contact me for HSC tutoring either. I am well equipped to tutor you for any of the following HSC subjects: - Economics - Physics - Mathematics Standard - Mathematics Advanced - Mathematics Extension 1 Year 7-10 Tutoring: Outside of Year 11 and Year 12, I specialise in Maths and Science. I know what it takes to excel in these younger years. For example, at Newington, in Year 7 I was not in the academically streamed class. From Year 8 onwards I was in the top class every year. Thus, I know the most effective study techniques that are essential in implementing into your study routine, in order to maintain a balance between school and sports, so that you can excel every year. For year 7-10, I charge $60 an hour. Overall: My ultimate goal is to provide accessible and valuable advice to hard working students in order to help them to achieve their goals. Feel free to message me! I am always willing to help with any of your worries. Michael
