Hello! I’m Andrew. I am a PhD-level scientist and a clinical radiographer, and I’ve spent the last 20 years figuring out how to make "hard" science actually click for senior students.
With a PhD in Biochemistry (Glasgow) and a Master of Diagnostic Radiography from USYD (2024), my approach isn't just theoretical—it's clinical and investigative. I don't see Biology, Chemistry, and Physics as separate boxes to be memorized; I see them as interconnected systems of logic. Whether you are tackling the HSC, VCE, or IB, I’m here to help you move past rote learning and build the analytical rigour needed to reach the top.
How I deliver my lessons:
Interactive Digital Whiteboard: We’ll use a Kamvas 12 tablet and Openboard. It’s like a live classroom whiteboard, but clearer. I can draw complex chemical structures or derive physics formulas in real-time, making every step easy to follow.
The "Forensic" Mindset: With a background in Forensic and Analytical Chemistry, I teach you how to "detect" the answers in complex exam questions—especially in high-stakes areas like HSC Chemistry Module 8 (Spectroscopy and Analysis).
Clinical Depth: My radiography practice provides unique, real-world depth for Physics (Medical Imaging) and Biology (Disease & Technology) modules.
I personally handle every session to ensure you get the full benefit of my experience. We’ll start with a complimentary 30-minute diagnostic consultation to look at your current "glass ceilings" and map out a tailored plan to break through them.
My base rate for HSC/IB is $100/hr, while specialised University-level e.g. Analytical Chemistry and GAMSAT preparation are $130/hr due to the advanced technical nature of the material.
