| 97 ATAR | Encore Nominated Composer | Band 6 English Advanced, Music 1 | High Band 5 Biology, Math Ext 1 | Grade 8 AMEB Classical Piano Hi, I'm James. I'm a student studying science at UNSW while balancing creating music on the side. I offer tutoring for Music 1, English Advanced, Biology and Mathematics Extension 1. My main ability is to assist students in starting, editing and finishing a music composition. Whatever the genre may be, I can help. Having been Encore nominated for 3 compositions in 3 unique styles, I know what HSC markers are looking for, and how to turn any piece into a 20/20. I give straightforward advice and strategies to get you the best mark possible. Whether you are just starting something new, or finishing your magnum opus, I will be there to aid along the way. [Message me to view one of my pieces] Composition Review Service I will review a composition, finished or unfinished, and provide feedback on how to improve and where to continue. By providing me with a PDF + audio track, Musescore file or Sibelius file, I can analyse a piece with a fine-tooth comb and give comprehensive guidance to take your work to the next level. Pricing: 1 Piece: $40 2 Pieces: $70 3 Pieces: $90 I also offer tutoring for the other subjects: 🎵 Music 1 (96/100) - To get a strong mark in music, you have to both pull through on your major works and accurately dissect a piece of music under time constraints. Whether it is a performance, composition, or viva voce, I can elevate your work. I can provide feedback to aural responses, and guide you through the process of comprehending and writing a response within the paper. (Spoiler, the strategy isn't just writing paragraphs.) 📝 English Advanced (90/100) - English is a nightmare for many students, but its only as hard as you make it out to be. This was never my strongest subject, but there are ways to make a strong essay under timed conditions without being a literary genius. To do well, you have to work hard, and I can give you the advice to make sure that effort is not misplaced. 🧬 Biology (89/100) - This is a tough subject with a multitude of things to memorise. I've gone through this struggle and have devised ways to make this information dense subject into a more bearable, simpler workload. I can teach the nuances of each topic and mark answers to all types of questions. 🔢 Mathematics Extension 1 (88/100) - Grinding past paper after past paper and still feeling like there's no improvement? Employing the right mindset and learning from what a paper teaches you is important, and I learnt this the hard way. I can build strong foundational problem solving skills that will help tackle the difficult questions 13-14 and assist in developing a deeper understanding of the content. Thank you for reading the whole way through. Please contact me if you are interested.
