Hi! I’m currently studying Actuarial Studies and Finance at Macquarie University. I graduated from North Sydney Girls High School, one of the highest-ranked selective schools in NSW, achieving an ATAR of 98.35. Throughout high school, my strongest subjects were Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1, where I achieved a Band 6 in Mathematics Advanced and an E4 in Mathematics Extension 1. My strong academic background has given me a solid understanding of mathematics, analytical thinking and effective study techniques. My teaching style is patient, encouraging and tailored to each student. I understand that everyone learns differently, so I focus on breaking challenging concepts into simple, manageable steps and making sure students genuinely understand the reasoning behind a method rather than simply memorising it. I use worked examples, practice questions and different explanations to find the approach that works best for each student. As a tutor, I can help students build confidence, strengthen their understanding of course content, improve their problem-solving skills and prepare effectively for assessments and exams. Having recently completed the HSC myself, I also understand the pressures students face and can share the study techniques, exam strategies and time-management skills that helped me achieve my 98.35 ATAR.
