I'm a medical student at Western Sydney University and a graduate of Sydney Technical High School, and I tutor maths for high school students, Years 7 to 12. You can find my full profile, materials and FAQs at my personal website! 🌐 🎓 A bit about me I finished my HSC with an ATAR of 99.25, placing in the top 1% of NSW. Maths has always been my favourite subject to teach. I came 1st in Extension 2 at my school and scored 96 in both Extension 1 and Extension 2, so I know first-hand what it takes to reach a high mark, and how to help a student get there step by step. 📚 My experience I've been teaching maths for 3+ years, mainly at Dr. Du Education, one of Sydney's most respected tutoring organisations. In that time I've delivered 20+ classes to over 300 students right through to HSC. I know the NSW syllabus inside out, including exactly how each topic is assessed and where students most often lose marks. 💡 Why I tutor and what makes me different Honestly, the best part of my week is the moment a tricky concept finally clicks for a student. 😊 I genuinely don't believe anyone is "bad at maths". Usually it's just been taught in a way that never quite clicked for them, and my whole job is to find the way that does. I focus on the why behind every technique, because a student who understands the reasoning can handle any question the exam throws at them, not just the ones they've seen before. 👥 Who I help I work with all kinds of students. Some are rebuilding confidence after falling behind and just need maths to make sense again. Others are strong students chasing Band 6s, E4s or specific goals. I tailor everything to the individual, so the lessons meet each student exactly where they are. 🎯 My approach Every lesson is one on one and fully tailored to the student. We can: • Get ahead of school, so new content already feels familiar when it comes up in class • Move in step with class, to consolidate what they're learning each week • Go back and rebuild earlier gaps that are quietly holding the student back When assessments and exams approach, we shift focus to past papers and exam technique. 🗓️ How a lesson runs We start by going through the student's homework and any questions from school if time permits, then move into new content. I explain the concept clearly, we work through examples together, and the student practises with questions ordered from easy to hard so they build real confidence. Each lesson finishes with targeted homework for the week. 📝 My materials I build personalized work booklets for every student, targeting exactly what they ask for prior to the lesson, aligned to the textbooks schools actually use and based on past exam papers. 💬 Support between lessons Tutoring doesn't stop when the lesson ends. Students are always welcome to message me during the week if they get stuck on homework or have a question before an assessment, and I'll get back to them within a day. ✅ Your first lesson is completely free, a full session rather than a demo, so you can see exactly how I teach before deciding anything. No pressure and no obligation. I'd love to help your child feel confident with maths! 🙌 SUBJECTS / YEAR LEVELS ----------------------- Year 7 Mathematics Year 8 Mathematics Year 9 Mathematics Year 10 Mathematics Year 11 Mathematics Standard Year 11 Mathematics Advanced Year 11 Mathematics Extension 1 Year 12 Mathematics Standard Year 12 Mathematics Advanced Year 12 Mathematics Extension 1 QUALIFICATIONS -------------- • 🏥 Medical student, Western Sydney University • ATAR 99.25 (Top 1% in NSW) • HSC Ext 2 Maths: 96 (School Dux) | Ext 1 Maths: 96 (Top 5) • HSC Biology: 93 | Economics: 94 • UCAT 2024: 3310 (98th Percentile) • 3+ years experience | 300+ students taught • Working With Children Check held ✅ LOCATION ------------------------ 📍 In-person: around Hurstville, NSW 💻 Online: Zoom, anywhere in NSW (same program as in-person) RATE ---- Years 7 & 8: $70 / hour (1 hour lessons) Years 9 & 10: $80 / hour (1.5 hour lessons) Years 11 & 12: $90 / hour (2 hour lessons) Always one on one.
