5.0  (4 student reviews)

Hey there! I'm Aakash and I hope to be someone you get to know very well as your future tutor!

I graduated as the Runner-Up Dux from Perth Modern School in 2020 with an ATAR of 99.90, obtaining final scaled scores of:
• Mathematics Methods - 95.9 (top 0.5% of the state) • Mathematics Specialist - 95.5
• Chemistry - 95.4 (top 0.5% of the state)
• Accounting & Finance - 94.9 (Rank 1 in the state)
• Economics - 88.3
• Biology – 86.6

These scores allowed me to receive numerous state awards for my ATAR performance, such as the General Exhibition, Subject Certificate of Excellence in Mathematics Methods & Chemistry, and a Certificate of Distinction.

I hope that I can fully pass on the strategies, tips and techniques that I used to achieve my results on to my students. I know that studying, especially in the current climate, can be quite stressful. I hope to clear up any confusion students have regarding their studies and instil them with confidence and motivation.

The subjects that I tutor are ones that I am extremely passionate about, and include:
• Year 11 & 12 ATAR Subjects:
- Mathematics Methods
- Mathematics Specialist
- Mathematics Applications
- Chemistry
- Physics
- English
- Biology
- Human Biology
- Accounting & Finance
- Economics
- Psychology
- UCAT Preparation
- Medical Interviews (MMI or Panel interviews tailored to specific universities such as UNSW, JMP, WSU, USyd, Monash, UWA, Curtin, University of Adelaide and University of Queensland)
- CASPER Preparation

• Years 7 - 10:
- Mathematics - Science
- English
- Economics
- UCAT Preparation
- Medical Interviews (MMI or Panel interviews tailored to specific universities such as UNSW, JMP, WSU, USyd, Monash, UWA, Curtin, University of Adelaide and University of Queensland)
- CASPER Preparation

I also am selling my large and comprehensive resource banks (top quality notes covering all syllabus points + 30+ practice tests/exams) used in classes for each of these subjects. These are the main reason I achieved a 99.90 ATAR and is why my students top their classes!

I also sat the UCAT in 2020 and achieved a final raw score of 3240 (Verbal Reasoning = 740, Decision Making = 750, Quantitative Reasoning = 870, Abstract Reasoning = 880 (Situational Judgement = 695)), which put me in the 99th Percentile. I achieved this result by utilising key strategies for every single question type in each subtest of the UCAT, and these strategies are what I ensure that I teach to my students in a step-by-step manner for each question type in each subtest, along with applying this to countless practice questions, to perfect their UCAT performance.

I am currently an unbonded UNSW Medical student. I also received unbonded medical offers from the University of Western Australia, University of Adelaide and University of Queensland, and attended medical interviews from almost all Australian direct entry medicine universities. Through these experiences I have learnt and perfected the key strategies required to ace both MMI and Panel interviews, and would love to help the next generation of aspiring doctors to do the same in their medical interviews. I will provide the key adaptable structure students can use to answer each type of interview question, and ensure that we practice with numerous mock interview questions to master this interview technique.

I hope to conduct engaging and challenging lessons with my students so that they can reach their true potential, as I firmly believe that every student can achieve the results they want with hard work and someone to guide them. I have a wealth of experience in tutoring over numerous years, and many of my students have succeeded in obtaining top marks in their academic subjects, 99th Percentile UCAT scores and aceing their interviews to gain a spot in their dream medical schools.

My lessons will consist of key elements required for my students' success (with no additional costs), including:
• Providing students with in-depth, thorough notes for each syllabus point needing to be covered, usually well in advance • Using an extensive range of practice questions and resources
• Providing a huge range of official tests & exams from various schools & organisations (over 30 exams and 30 tests per subject)
• Informing students of shortcuts, tips and tricks to perform at their best in tests & examinations. I believe this unique insight can only be attained by someone who has recently gone through the testing & examination procedures like myself.
• Targeted revision programs that are tailored for students' specific areas of concern prior to tests & exams
• Answering & explaining thoroughly any questions or topics a student is having trouble with
• Email & phone support 7 days a week

I tutor online and am flexible with my schedule. I will do my best to accommodate for a tutoring time that is the most beneficial for the student.

I tutor via zoom or skype usually in 1-2 hour lessons, and charge the following competitive rates:
• Year 11 & 12 ATAR subjects, UCAT Preparation, CASPER & Med Interview Preparation - $60/hour ($40/hour for Med Interview Group sessions)

"Aakash helped me very much in methods. He filled our lessons with lots of practice questions and took the time to make sure I understood all the topics and answered all of my questions. He had loads of practice tests and exams which he provided me which also really helped in my revision."
