I’m a recent HSC graduate (97.60 ATAR) and DUX of my school, currently studying a Bachelor of Science (Medical Radiation and Physics). I’ve achieved multiple academic scholarships at university, and countless awards throughout my high school career. I achieved strong results in English Advanced (93), English Extension 2 (48/50)(rank 1st), Biology (95), Physics (89) (90 internally) (rank 3rd), English Extension 1 (43/50) (rank 1st), Chemistry and Mathematics Advanced. I specialise in helping students improve their exam performance through clear structure, strong understanding of marking criteria, and confident written expression. My focus is not just on content, but on teaching students how to think and write to meet examiner expectations. I have a huge passion for all things science, but paradoxically, I’m an even bigger English nerd! Because I’ve spent so much time in both the Science and English worlds, I’ve gotten the best of both. I’ve developed a good balance between analytical thinking and creative expression and I aim to share that with my students to help them feel more confident, capable, and comfortable in their learning. Lesson Structure & Approach: My lessons are highly personalised to each student. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, so every lesson is carefully tailored to target the student's specific strengths, weaknesses, and goals. I provide access to comprehensive notes, sample responses, and a wide range of textbook and HSC-style questions, all drawn from my own experience as a recent HSC student. My aim is not just to teach content, but to help you feel more confident, capable, and in control of your learning. HSC English (Advanced, Extension 1 & 2): For English Advanced, I have studied: - The Crucible (Common Module) - The Tempest & Hag-Seed (Module A) - T. S. Eliot (Module B) I can provide detailed, text-specific support for these texts, but more importantly, I can help you master essay writing (structure, clarity, sophistication), short answer responses, creative writing, and exam technique regardless of text. For Extension 1, I have done the Literary Mindscapes elective. For Extension 2, I completed the short fiction form, but I’m also well-versed in creative non-fiction and critical response. I can help with: - Major work development - Reflection statements - In-school assessment tasks - Refining ideas and elevating writing style HSC Biology & Physics: I combine clear explanations of complex content with a strong focus on exam technique, because I know from experience that the content itself is only 50% of the marks. My explanations are guided by visual representations and syllabus based notes, so you know for certain that you're not missing out on any essential information. I adopt an active learning approach, where I constantly ask questions and require you to write your own notes throughout the lesson . This ensure that you are not just listening, but also learning. Lessons include: - Breaking down difficult concepts into understandable ideas - Working through HSC-style questions - Learning how to structure answers for maximum marks - Access to detailed notes and sample responses Years 7–10: I offer support in English, Math, and Science, focusing on building strong foundations and confidence early on. - English: essay writing, creative writing, and analytical skills - Math: step-by-step problem solving, understanding concepts (not just memorizing), and building accuracy - Science: clear explanations and helping you connect ideas I also provide assessment task and homework support to help students feel more prepared and less stressed. Years 5–6 + NAPLAN: For younger students, I focus on building strong foundational skills in English and Math, as these are essential for long-term success. I also offer NAPLAN preparation, helping students feel confident with the format and improve their reading, writing, and numeracy skills in a supportive environment. Rates: English (Adv, Ext 1 & 2): $70/hr Biology: $70/hr Physics: $65/hr Years 7–10: $65/hr Years 5–6: $50/hr Group Tutoring (2+ students): $50 / student / hr Essay marking and written feedback for $15 per essay (1000 words). This is ideal for students who require detailed feedback and HSC-style marking, but don't want to book a lesson. Note that if you do book a lesson, this will be FREE and included in lessons. Any out-of-lesson work may still be charged depending on the load of the task. I’m looking forward to working with you and helping you achieve your best results! Please reach out!
